Dietary magnesium supplementation improves lifespan in a mouse model of progeria

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2020
Aging is associated with redox imbalance according to the redox theory of aging. Consistently, a mouse model of premature aging (LmnaG609G/+) showed an increased level of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) and a reduced basal antioxidant ...

Increasing the length of progerin's isoprenyl anchor does not worsen bone disease or survival in mice with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2009
Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is caused by the synthesis of a truncated prelamin A, commonly called progerin, that contains a carboxyl-terminal farnesyl lipid anchor.

Proteostasis of organelles in aging and disease

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Cells rely on regulated proteostasis mechanisms to keep their internal compartments functioning properly. When these mechanisms fail, damaged proteins accumulate, disrupting organelles, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi, and lysosomes, as well as membraneless organelles, such as stress granules, processing bodies, the ...
