Abstract excerpt
Atypical progeroid syndromes (APS) are premature aging syndromes caused by pathogenic LMNA missense variants, associated with unaltered expression levels of lamins A and C, without accumulation of wild-type or deleted prelamin A isoforms, as observed in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) or HGPS-like syndromes. A specific LMNA missense variant, (p.Thr528Met), was previously identified in a compound...
