Progeria Patients May Find Hope in New Drug - ABC News
abcnews.go.com — “Progeria disease is an extremely rare and fatal genetic disorder which causes children to age eight to 10 times the normal rate. But a new study, published in Science Translational Medicine, may give experts clues toward a cure for kids with the condition. Researchers found that a drug known as rapamycin, used as an antibiotic in organ transplant recipients, slowed and even stopped the disease progression within the cells.” View full resource at abcnews.go.com

Progerin may contribute to risk of atherosclerosis: Study
news-medical.net — “Progeria, also known as Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS), is a rare, fatal genetic disease characterized by an appearance of accelerated aging in children. All children with Progeria die of the same heart disease that affects millions of normal aging adults (atherosclerosis), but instead of occurring at 60 or 70 years of age, these children may suffer heart attacks and strokes even before age 10, and the average age of death is 13 years.” View full resource at news-medical.net
