“In sum, we have defined what a premature aging disease is and developed tools to allow diagnostics of patients and disease population.” “In this study, we have utilized phenome explorations to define ...

“[...] this study addresses a critical gap by providing new insights into the role of telomere attrition across different progeroid conditions.” “[…] this ...

A stretch of DNA that hops around the human genome plays a role in premature aging disorders, scientists have discovered. In people with early aging, or progeria, RNA encoded by this mobile DNA builds ...

UT Southwestern researchers have discovered a new form of progeria, a rare premature-aging syndrome, in a man from Malaysia and traced its cause to a novel gene mutation. The finding, reported in the ...

DREAM complex acts as master brake on DNA repair, where higher activity steadily increases mutations and accelerates aging.

The researchers say their findings point to a new avenue for the possible treatment of premature aging and may also be relevant to other aging-associated pathologies. Progeroid syndromes, such as ...
