Werner Syndrome, aging and cancer.

Genome dynamics - 1 Jan 2006

Ozgenc A, Loeb L A

Abstract excerpt

Werner syndrome (WS) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic instability/cancer predisposition disorder that displays many symptoms of premature aging. The mimicry of agerelated phenotypes in WS, as well as its dependence on a single defective gene product, has provided the impetus for studying this fascinating disease as a model system for normative aging and its related pathologies such as atherosclerosis,...
