Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is the primary risk factor underlying photoaging and photocarcinogenesis. Mounting research has focused on the role of DNA damage response pathways in UV-induced double-strand break (DSB) repair. In the present study, we hypothesized that UVA-induced aberrant progerin upregulation may adversely affect p53-binding protein 1 ...

Baricitinib Augments Lonafarnib Therapy to Preserve Colonic Homeostasis and Microbial Balance in a Mouse Model of Progeria. [PDF]
Combined baricitinib and lonafarnib treatment improved colonic pathology in LmnaG609G/G609G progeria mice by reducing progerin, maintaining epithelial regeneration, mitigating inflammation and senescence, and preserving microbiome composition. ABSTRACT Hutchinson‐Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) is a fatal genetic disorder caused by progerin, a mutant ...

Impact of MnTBAP and Baricitinib Treatment on Hutchinson–Gilford Progeria Fibroblasts
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare premature aging disease. It is caused by a mutation in the LMNA gene, which results in a 50-amino-acid truncation of prelamin A.

A new connection between VHL and cancer threads through progerin [PDF]
A-type nuclear lamins, all encoded by the LMNA gene through alternative splicing, are targets for mutation in a wide range of rare diseases, including a dominant mutation that enhances production of lamin A splice variant progerin, causing Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS).1 Often ignored, however, is the complex and poorly understood ...

Progerin elicits disease phenotypes of progeria in mice whether or not it is farnesylated [PDF]
Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS), a rare disease that results in what appears to be premature aging, is caused by the production of a mutant form of prelamin A known as progerin. Progerin retains a farnesyl lipid anchor at its carboxyl terminus, a modification that is thought to be important in disease pathogenesis.

Proteostasis of organelles in aging and disease
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 ...

Cardiovascular Progerin Suppression and lamin A Restoration Rescues Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome. [PDF]
Background: Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare disorder characterized by premature aging and death mainly due to myocardial infarction, stroke, or heart failure.
