ZMPSTE24 Is Associated with Elevated Inflammation and Progerin mRNA [PDF]

open access: yesCells, 2020
Lamins are important filaments forming the inner nuclear membrane. Lamin A is processed by zinc metalloproteinase (ZMPSTE24). Failure to cleave a truncated form of prelamin A—also called progerin—causes Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome a well-known ...

The syntaxin-binding protein STXBP5 regulates progerin expression

open access: yesScientific Reports
Hutchinson–Gilfor progeria syndrome (HGPS) is caused by a mutation in Lamin A resulting in the production of a protein called progerin. The accumulation of progerin induces inflammation, cellular senescence and activation of the P53 pathway.

MG 132‐induced progerin clearance is mediated by autophagy activation and splicing regulation

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2017
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a lethal premature and accelerated aging disease caused by a de novo point mutation in LMNA encoding A‐type lamins.

First Generation Proteolysis Targeting Chimeras (PROTACs) for the Treatment of Progeria [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced Science
Hutchinson‐Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the LMNA gene, leading to the production of progerin, an aberrant and toxic form of lamin A. Due to its hydrophobic nature, progerin accumulates at the nuclear

Progerin Expression Induces Inflammation, Oxidative Stress and Senescence in Human Coronary Endothelial Cells

open access: yesCells, 2020
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare premature aging disorder notably characterized by precocious and deadly atherosclerosis. Almost 90% of HGPS patients carry a LMNA p.G608G splice variant that leads to the expression of a permanently ...

Progerin, an Aberrant Spliced Form of Lamin A, Is a Potential Therapeutic Target for HGPS

open access: yesCells, 2023
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is an extremely rare genetic disorder caused by the mutant protein progerin, which is expressed by the abnormal splicing of the LMNA gene.

Nucleophagic Degradation of Progerin Ameliorates Defenestration in Liver Sinusoidal Endothelium Due to SIRT1-Mediated Deacetylation of Nuclear LC3

open access: yesCells, 2022
Progerin, a permanently farnesylated prelamin A protein in cell nuclei, is potentially implicated in the defenestration of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) and liver fibrogenesis.

The unfolded protein response in progeria arteries originates from non-endothelial cell types [PDF]

open access: yesLife Science Alliance
Progeroid endothelial cells do not show a robust activation of the unfolded protein response, contrary to what has been reported in other arterial cell types such as vascular smooth muscle cells. Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) is a premature

The accumulation of progerin underlies the loss of aortic smooth muscle cells in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death and Disease
Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is caused by progerin, an internally truncated prelamin A that does not undergo the ZMPSTE24 processing step that releases prelamin A’s farnesylated carboxyl terminus; consequently, progerin remains ...

Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell-Specific Progerin Expression Provokes Contractile Impairment in a Mouse Model of Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome that Is Ameliorated by Nitrite Treatment

open access: yesCells, 2020
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the main cause of death worldwide, and aging is its leading risk factor. Aging is much accelerated in Hutchinson−Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS), an ultra-rare genetic disorder provoked by the ubiquitous expression ...
