Impact of Combined Baricitinib and FTI Treatment on Adipogenesis in Hutchinson–Gilford Progeria Syndrome and Other Lipodystrophic Laminopathies

open access: yesCells, 2023
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare genetic disease that causes premature aging symptoms, such as vascular diseases, lipodystrophy, loss of bone mineral density, and alopecia. HGPS is mostly linked to a heterozygous and de novo mutation

Advances in CRISPR Base Editing: From Molecular Evolution to Therapeutic Applications in Genomic Medicine

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 8, April 2026.
ABSTRACT CRISPR‐Cas9 systems revolutionized gene editing, but inherent drawbacks, namely DNA double‐strand breaks (DSBs) and the difficulty of achieving precise repairs (due to low HDR efficiency), led researchers to invent new, more accurate gene editing tools.

Progeroid Syndrome and Mutation in LMNA Gene: Report of Two Cases from Iran [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Kerman University of Medical Sciences, 2005
Two Iranian cases with very rare progeroid syndrome are reported. The first is a 24-year-old girl who has been healthy till her 13th birthday. From that time she has been suffering from a progressive generalized and multi-systemic illness.

Diabetes‐induced vascular calcification is associated with low pyrophosphate and its oral supplementation prevents calcification in diabetic mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 3, Page 474-486, March 2026.
Induction of diabetes in three different mouse strains uniformly resulted in an increase in TNAP activity and a reduction in pyrophosphate (PPi) in the circulation. Inhibition of TNAP restored plasma PPi. Diabetes‐induced calcification in the media layer of the aorta was detected only in the Abcc6−/− strain, which is predisposed to ectopic ...

Nuclear Envelope, Nuclear Lamina, and Inherited Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The nuclear envelope is composed of the nuclear membranes, nuclear lamina, and nuclear pore complexes. In recent years, mutations in nuclear-envelope proteins have been shown to cause a surprisingly wide array of inherited diseases.

Hematopoietic (stem) cells—The elixir of life?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 4, Page 392-417, February 2026.
The aging of HSCs (hematopoietic stem cells) and the blood system leads to the decline of other organs. Rejuvenating aged HSCs improves the function of the blood system, slowing the aging of the heart, kidney, brain, and liver, and the occurrence of age‐related diseases.

Rare BANF1 Alleles and Relatively Frequent EMD Alleles Including ‘Healthy Lipid’ Emerin p.D149H in the ExAC Cohort

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2019
Emerin (EMD) and barrier to autointegration factor 1 (BANF1) each bind A-type lamins (LMNA) as fundamental components of nuclear lamina structure. Mutations in LMNA, EMD and BANF1 are genetically linked to many tissue-specific disorders including Emery ...

Muscle-derived stem/progenitor cell dysfunction in Zmpste24-deficient progeroid mice limits muscle regeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Introduction. Loss of adult stem cell function during aging contributes to impaired tissue regeneration. Here, we tested the aging-related decline in regeneration potential of adult stem cells residing in the skeletal muscle. Methods.
