Are there Different Kinds of Aging?

Current aging science - 1 Jan 2018

Diaconeasa Amalia G, Rachita Mariana

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Most syndromes of accelerated aging are caused by mutations affecting the integrity of the genetic material. Among them, the most studied is Werner's syndrome, "adult progeria", caused by a recessive autosomal mutation with a frequency of 1 in 10 million, which affects a helicase involved in DNA repair. In Werner syndrome, there is a loss of heterochromatin, though the stability of heterochromatin is...
