INTRODUCCIÓN : mutaciones en el gen LMNA, LAMINA A/C; originan un grupo de desordenes genéticos que pueden ser clasificados en cuatro grupos: enfermedades de músculo estriado y cardiaco, síndromes lipodistroficos, neuropatías periféricas y progeria (1 ...

Resumen La progeria o síndrome de Hutchinson-Gilford esun síndrome poco frecuente. Consiste en la aparición de signos de envejecimiento en niños entre su primer y segundo año de vida. La mayoría de los casos de progeria son esporádicos, lo cual plantea la posibilidad de un patrón de herencia autosómico dominante por mutación de novo.

iTRAQ-Based Analysis of Progerin Expression Reveals Mitochondrial Dysfunction, Reactive Oxygen Species Accumulation and Altered Proteostasis [PDF]
[Abstract] Introduction. Nuclear accumulation of a mutant form of the nuclear protein Lamin-A, called Progerin (PG) or Lamin AΔ50, occurs in Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) or Progeria, an accelerated aging disease. One of the main symptoms

The fat‐heart entanglement and the role of ‘osteopontin mechanics’ in cardiometabolic senescence
Abstract Background Residual cardiovascular (CV) risk persists despite therapeutic advances. Obesity is heterogeneous, and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) dysfunction (‘adiposopathy’) complicates risk stratification. Osteopontin (OPN) is a pleiotropic mediator implicated in VAT inflammation, senescence‐associated pathways, atherosclerosis and myocardial ...

DNA damage: A main determinant of vascular aging [PDF]
Vascular aging plays a central role in health problems and mortality in older people. Apart from the impact of several classical cardiovascular risk factors on the vasculature, chronological aging remains the single most important determinant of ...

Clinicopathological Challenge: A Progressively Enlarging Hardened Skin Plaque
ABSTRACT Stiff skin syndrome (SSS) is a rare connective tissue disease manifesting as a progressive, non‐inflammatory fibrosis that causes the skin and soft tissues to harden. It can result in restricted joint movement, particularly affecting the shoulder and pelvic girdle. A segmental variant with a better prognosis has been described.

Cellular Senescence, Inflammaging and Cardiovascular Disease
ABSTRACT Aging is the most important yet unmodifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). As a result, targeting cardiovascular aging has emerged as a promising strategy to promote long‐term cardiovascular health. This review summarizes current knowledge on the effects of aging within the cardiovascular system as well as systemic processes ...

Posttranslational Modifications of Lamin A/C and Cardiac Aging: A Short Review
Cardiac aging is considered as natural and age-related changes in the heart, which can lead to a decline in heart function. Cardiac aging increases the risk of heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and other cardiovascular complications.

This study develops a 3D vascular injury model using a microphysiological system that mimics key features of intimal hyperplasia. Antiproliferative drugs reduced VSMC proliferation but worsened endothelialdenudation. A combination of diphenyleneiodonium and quercetin effectively reduced proliferation and migration of VSMC and inflammation while ...
