Improved Arterial Stiffness and Bone Mineral Density in Hutchinson–Gilford Progeria Treated with Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells: A Case Study and Literature Review
2025-02-18
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> /Objectives: Hutchinson‒Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare ge-netic disorder caused by LMNA gene mutations, leading to the accumulation of farne-sylated progerin. It is characterized by severe growth failure, premature aging, rapid progression of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular- related early disease. Lonafarnib, a farnesyltransferase inhibitor, extends life expectancy in HGPS, but...
