Abstract
Most patients with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) succumb to cardiovascular disease. Recent studies by Barettino et al., Cardoso et al., and Vakili et al. utilized progeria mouse models to elucidate novel mechanisms by which vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) and endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction accelerate the progress of the disease, thus providing directions for the development of new targeted pharmaco-therapies.
期刊介绍:
Trends in Molecular Medicine (TMM) aims to offer concise and contextualized perspectives on the latest research advancing biomedical science toward better diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of human diseases. It focuses on research at the intersection of basic biology and clinical research, covering new concepts in human biology and pathology with clear implications for diagnostics and therapy. TMM reviews bridge the gap between bench and bedside, discussing research from preclinical studies to patient-enrolled trials. The major themes include disease mechanisms, tools and technologies, diagnostics, and therapeutics, with a preference for articles relevant to multiple themes. TMM serves as a platform for discussion, pushing traditional boundaries and fostering collaboration between scientists and clinicians. The journal seeks to publish provocative and authoritative articles that are also accessible to a broad audience, inspiring new directions in molecular medicine to enhance human health.
