Progerinin

Description

Progerinin SLC-D011 is an orally active progerin-lamin A binding inhibitor. Progerinin selectively binds to the C-terminal region of progerin, disrupting its interaction with lamin A and promoting progerin degradation while sparing wild-type lamin A, B, and C. Progerinin ameliorates nuclear deformation, increases H3K9me3 levels, and reduces progerin expression in HGPS patient-derived fibroblasts. Progerinin extends lifespan in LmnaG609G/G609G mice and LmnaG609G/+ mice, improves body weight, hair morphology, cardiac function, and histological phenotypes. Progerinin can be used for the study of Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome HGPS .
