NIH Rare Diseases: Progeria is a rare condition characterized by dramatic, rapid aging beginning in childhood. Affected newborns usually appear normal but within a year, their growth rate slows significantly. Affected children develop a distinctive appearance characterized by baldness, aged-looking skin, a pinched nose, and a small face and jaw relative to head size. They also often have symptoms typically seen in much older people including joint stiffness, hip dislocations and severe, progressive cardiovascular disease. Intelligence is typically normal. The average lifespan is age 13; death is usually due to heart attack or stroke. Progeria is caused by mutations in the LMNA gene, but almost always results from a new mutation rather than being inherited from a parent. Management focuses on the individual signs and symptoms of the condition. Although there is currently no cure, research involving treatment is ongoing and progress is being made.30
MalaCards: Progeria, also known as HGPS, is related to cockayne syndrome and mandibuloacral dysplasia. An important gene associated with Progeria is LMNA (lamin A/C), and among its related pathways are Granzyme Pathway and Apoptosis and survival_Caspase cascade. The compounds 8-hydroxyadenine and 8-hydroxyguanine have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include skin, heart and t cells, and related mouse phenotypes are respiratory system and pigmentation. Genetics Home Reference: Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome is a genetic condition characterized by the dramatic, rapid appearance of aging beginning in childhood. Affected children typically look normal at birth and in early infancy, but then grow more slowly than other children and do not gain weight at the expected rate (failure to thrive). They develop a characteristic facial appearance including prominent eyes, a thin nose with a beaked tip, thin lips, a small chin, and protruding ears. Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome also causes hair loss (alopecia), aged-looking skin, joint abnormalities, and a loss of fat under the skin (subcutaneous fat). This condition does not disrupt intellectual development or the development of motor skills such as sitting, standing, and walking.17 Wikipedia: Progeria (also known as \"Hutchinson–Gilford (Progeria) Syndrome\", and \"Progeria syndrome\") is an...44 more...
