The Accumulation of Progerin Underlies the Loss of Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells in Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome

2024-11-03

Abstract excerpt

Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a progeroid disorder characterized by multiple aging-like phenotypes, including disease in large arteries. HGPS is caused by an internally truncated prelamin A (progerin) that cannot undergo the ZMPSTE24-mediated processing step that converts farnesyl-prelamin A to mature lamin A; consequently, progerin retains a carboxyl-terminal farnesyl lipid anchor. In cultured ce...
