Mouse Model of Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) and Vascular Abnormalities (G608G) mutated form of human LNMA) for Therapeutic Development

Children with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) suffer from acceleration of certain aging symptoms, mainly cardiovascular disease that generally leads to death from myocardial infarction and/or stroke. The cause of HGPS has been discovered to be a de novo point mutation in lamin A (LNMA) gene. NHGRI Scientist have generated a transgenic...

Device for Vascular Dilation

The invention is an enhanced vascular dilator that eliminates the vascular injury caused by the size mismatch between vascular introducer sheaths and vascular dilators, as the two are advanced into a blood vessel. The invention provides a “shoulder” to match the diameter of the introducer sheath so that there is a smooth transition, without size mismatch,...
