“…HGPS patients and mouse models develop typical premature aged features and age‐related disorders such as atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease, and osteoporosis associated with low bone mass, increased fracture risk, and osteolysis of the ribs (Hamczyk et al., 2018 ; Merideth et al., 2008 ; Osmanagic‐Myers et al., 2019 ). On the cellular level, progerin‐expressing cells display typical aging hallmarks (Lopez‐Otin et al., 2023 ) such as epigenetic changes, reduction in telomere length, increased DNA damage, and genomic instability associated with the development of stable cell cycle arrest named cellular senescence (Cenni et al., 2020 ; Manakanatas et al., 2022 ; Mojiri et al., 2021 ; Primmer et al., 2022 ). Accordingly, we and others could demonstrate that progerin expression in ECs of Prog‐Tg mice results in the accumulation of senescent ECs in tissues with similar findings in human ECs derived from induced pluripotent stem cells of HGPS children (Manakanatas et al., 2022 ; Mojiri et al., 2021 ).…”
