Abstract excerpt
Nuclear envelopathies are rare genetic diseases that compromise the integrity of the nuclear envelope. Patients with a defect in LEM domain nuclear envelope protein 2 (LEMD2) leading to LEMD2-associated progeroid syndrome are exceedingly scarce in number, yet they exhibit shared clinical features including skeletal abnormalities and a prematurely-aged appearance. Our study broadens the understanding of...
