Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare and fatal human premature aging disease1-5, characterized by premature atherosclerosis and degeneration of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs)6-8. HGPS is caused by a single-point mutation in the LMNA gene, resulting in the generation of progerin...

Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a genetic disorder displaying features reminiscent of premature senescence caused by germline mutations in the LMNA gene encoding lamin A and C, essential components of the nuclear lamina. By studying a family with homozygous LMNA mutation (K542N), we s...

DNA methylation gradiently changes with age and is likely to be involved in aging-related processes resulting in phenotype changes and increased susceptibility to certain diseases. The Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGP) and Werner Syndrome are two premature aging diseases showing features of...

In this experiment, we aim to examine the role of NAT10 inhibition in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS), a rare but devastating premature ageing syndrome caused by a mutation in the LMNA gene. NAT10 inhibition improves HGPS cellular phenotypes by releasing Transportin-1 (TNPO1) from the cy...

Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a premature aging disease that is frequently caused by a de novo point mutation at position 1824 in LMNA. This mutation activates a cryptic splice donor site in exon 11, and leads to an in-frame deletion within the prelamin A mRNA and the production of ...

Hutchinson Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) is a rare, sporadic genetic disease caused by mutations in the nuclear lamin A gene. In most cases the mutation creates an efficient donor-splice site that generates an altered transcript encoding a truncated lamin A protein, progerin. In vitro studies ha...

Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare genetic disease with widespread phenotypic features resembling premature aging. HGPS was recently shown to be caused by dominant mutations in the LMNA gene, resulting in the in-frame deletion of 50 amino acids near the carboxyl terminus of the en...

We analyzed and compared global gene expression changes in fibroblasts from human subjects with HGPS compared to age matched controls. We then treated both control and HGPS fibroblasts with a protein farnesyltransferase inhibitor (FTI), a medication currently used in clinical trials to treat HGPS, ...
