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

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
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.

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]
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]
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 ...

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 ...
