Researchers found a genetic variant in people with especially long lives, which could help children who age prematurely | ...
Despite decades of research, the extent to which human progerias resemble accelerated ageing is still unclear and highly debated. To understand this connection, an ongoing characterization of genetic ...
Two of the best characterized progeroid syndromes are Werner syndrome and Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS). The genes targeted for mutation in these diseases (WRN and LMNA, respectively) ...
A new breakthrough in a rare genetic disease which causes children to age rapidly has been discovered using 'longevity genes' found in people who live exceptionally long lives—over 100 years old. The ...
