DNA Damage in the Oligodendrocyte Lineage and Its Role in Brain Aging
HHS Public Access Author manuscript Author ManuscriptAuthor Manuscript Author Mech Ageing Manuscript Author Dev. Author Manuscript Author manuscript; available in PMC 2018 January 01. Published in final edited form as: Mech Ageing Dev. 2017 January ; 161(Pt A): 37–50. doi:10.1016/j.mad.2016.05.006. DNA damage in the oligodendrocyte lineage and its role in brain aging Kai-Hei Tse1,2 and Karl Herrup1 1 Division of Life Science, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Clear Water Bay, Kowloon, Hong Kong Abstract Myelination is a recent evolutionary addition that significantly enhances the speed of transmission in the neural network. Even slight defects in myelin integrity impair performance and enhance the risk of neurological disorders. Indeed, myelin degeneration is an early and well-recognized neuropathology that is age associated, but appears before cognitive decline. Myelin is only formed by fully differentiated oligodendrocytes, but the entire oligodendrocyte lineage are clear targets of the altered chemistry of the aging brain. As in neurons, unrepaired DNA damage accumulates in the postmitotic oligodendrocyte genome during normal aging, and indeed may be one of the upstream causes of cellular aging - a fact well illustrated by myelin co-morbidity in premature aging syndromes arising from deficits in DNA repair enzymes. The clinical and experimental evidence from Alzheimer's disease, progeroid syndromes, ataxia-telangiectasia and other conditions strongly suggest that oligodendrocytes may in fact be uniquely vulnerable to oxidative DNA damage. If this damage remains unrepaired, as is increasingly true in the aging brain, myelin gene transcription and oligodendrocyte differentiation is impaired. Delineating the relationships between early myelin loss and DNA damage in brain aging will offer an additional dimension outside the neurocentric view of neurodegenerative disease. -
The Progeria Syndrome Fact Sheet
HUTCHINSON-GILFORD PROGERIA SYNDROME FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS WHAT IS PROGERIA? Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome “Progeria” or “HGPS” is a rare, fatal genetic condition characterized by an appearance of accelerated aging in children. Its name is derived from the Greek and means "prematurely old." While there are different forms of Progeria*, the classic type is Hutchinson- Gilford Progeria Syndrome, which was named after the doctors who first described it in England: in 1886 by Dr. Jonathan Hutchinson, and in 1897 by Dr. Hastings Gilford. HOW COMMON IS PROGERIA? Progeria affects approximately 1 in 4 - 8 million newborns. It affects both sexes equally and all races. In the past 15 years, children with Progeria have been reported all over the world , including in: Algeria Cuba Ireland Peru Sweden Argentina Denmark Israel Philippines Switzerland Australia Dominican Italy Poland Turkey Austria Republic Japan Portugal United States Belgium Egypt Libya Puerto Rico Venezuela Brazil England Mexico Romania Vietnam Canada France Morocco South Africa Yugoslavia China Germany Netherlands South Korea Columbia India Pakistan Spain WHAT ARE THE FEATURES OF PROGERIA? Although they are born looking healthy, most children with Progeria begin to display many characteristics of Progeria within the first year of life. Progeria signs include growth failure, loss of body fat and hair, aged-looking skin, stiffness of joints, hip dislocation, generalized atherosclerosis, cardiovascular (heart) disease and stroke. The children have a remarkably similar appearance, despite differing ethnic backgrounds. Children with Progeria die of atherosclerosis (heart disease) at an average age of thirteen years (with a range of about 8 – 21 years). WHAT DOES PROGERIA HAVE TO DO WITH AGING? Children with Progeria are genetically predisposed to premature, progressive heart disease. -

Anetoderma Secondary to Mid-Dermal Elastolysis
Anetoderma Secondary to Mid-dermal Elastolysis Gabriela A. Maloney, BS,* Jane James, MD, PhD,** Michael Welsch, MD,** Marylee Braniecki, MD** *Midwestern University, Downers Grove, IL **Pathology Department, University of Illinois Hospital & Health Sciences System, Chicago, IL Abstract Anetoderma usually presents as circumscribed, 1 cm to 2 cm patches and plaques of flaccid skin secondary to loss of dermal elastic tissue. Lesions often occur in the neck, upper extremities, chest, and back. On histopathology, one sees complete loss of dermal elastin involving the papillary and reticular dermis, with infiltration of plasma cells and histiocytes. A 40-year-old female with no significant medical history presented with multiple round, 1 cm to 2 cm lesions scattered on her upper back and chest. Skin biopsy demonstrated elastic-fiber loss localized to the mid-dermis along with a lymphohistiocytic infiltrate with elastophagocytosis and active inflammatory phase in the papillary and mid-reticular dermis. The histopathological findings were consistent with mid-dermal elastolysis with advancing inflammation, and the clinical features were consistent with anetoderma. The microscopic examination revealed an active inflammatory phase of mid-dermal elastolysis, supporting the postulated theory that MDE may be part of a continuous spectrum with anetoderma. Case Report by lax, wrinkled skin with underlying palpable biopsy and elastic-fiber staining demonstrated A 40-year-old female with no significant medical depression (Figure 1).

Trichothiodystrophy
Trichothiodystrophy Author: Doctor Alfredo Rossi1 and Doctor C. Cantisani. Creation date: June 2004 Scientific Editor: Prof Antonella Tosti 1Dipartimento di Malattie Cutanee-Veneree Chirurgia Plastica-Ricostruttiva, Università degli studi di Roma “La Sapienza” Abstract Keywords Definition Epidemiology Etiology Clinical description Diagnostic methods Prenatal diagnosis Management References Abstract Trichothiodystrophy (TTD) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder characterized by abnormal synthesis of the sulphur containing keratins and consequently hair dysplasia, associated with numerous symptoms affecting mainly organs derived from the neuroectoderm. This phenotypic aspect is due to mutations in the DNA-dependent ATPase/helicase subunit of TFIIH, XPB and XPD. Abnormalities in excision repair of ultraviolet (UV)-damaged DNA are recognized in about half of the patients. The clinical appearance is characterized by brittle and fragile hair, congenital ichthyosis, nail and dental dysplasias, cataract, progeria-like face, growth and mental retardation. The abnormalities are usually obvious at birth, with variable clinical expression. The variants of TTD, depending on their different associations, are known by the initials BIDS, IBIDS, PIBIDS, SIBIDS, ONMRS, as well as the eponyms of the Pollit, Tay, Sabinas syndromes or Amish brittle hair. The exact prevalence of TTD is unknown, but appears to be rather uncommon. About 20 cases of PIBI(D)S have been reported in the literature. Up to 1991, clinical data of 15 cases with IBIDS were published. Prenatal diagnostic of TTD is available. There is no specific treatment.

This disease is genetically transmitted in an autosomal recessive fashion. Affected patients often require surgical correction of ophthalmic and orthopaedic abnormalities. This syndrome was first described by A.M. De Barsy in 1967 and less than 100 known cases are documented in the medical literature. Very little has been published on this rare disorder and only a single article has addressed anesthesia case outcomes and management strategies (Aponte, 2010). The diverse collection of clinical manifestations in De Barsy syndrome includes: intra-uterine growth retardation (IUGR), postnatal growth delay, motor delay, cognitive impairment, hypontonia, athetoid movements, malformations, microcephaly, wormian bones, large fontanelles, facial dysmorphism, cataracts, corneal clouding, thin/wrinkled skin, easy bruising, sparse hair, joint laxity, osteopenia, and inguinal hernias.

How is Progeria diagnosed? Are there different types of Progeria? Is Progeria contagious or inherited? What is Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS or Progeria)? Progeria is also known as Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS). Genetic testing for It was first described in 1886 by Dr. Jonathan Hutchinson and in 1897 by Progeria can be Dr. Hastings Gilford. Progeria is a rare, fatal, “premature aging” syndrome. It’s called a syndrome performed from a because all the children have very similar symptoms that “go together”. The small sample of blood children have a remarkably similar appearance, even though Progeria affects children of all different ethnic backgrounds. Although most babies with (1-2 tsp) or sometimes Progeria are born looking healthy, they begin to display many characteristics from a sample of saliva. of accelerated aging by 18-24 months of age, or even earlier. Progeria signs include growth failure, loss of body fat and hair, skin changes, stiffness of joints, hip dislocation, generalized atherosclerosis, cardiovascular (heart) disease, and stroke. Children with Progeria die of atherosclerosis (heart disease) or stroke at an average age of 13 years (with a range of about 8-21 years). Remarkably, the intellect of children with Progeria is unaffected, and despite the physical changes in their young bodies, these extraordinary children are intelligent, courageous, and full of life. 1.2 THE PROGERIA HANDBOOK What is PRF’s history and mission?

Abstract: Syndromic hereditary hearing impairment (HHI) is a clinically and etiologically diverse condition that has a profound influence on affected individuals and their families. As cutaneous findings are more apparent than hearing-related symptoms to clinicians and, more importantly, to caregivers of affected infants and young individuals, establishing a correlation map of skin manifestations and their underlying genetic causes is key to early identification and diagnosis of syndromic HHI. In this article, we performed a comprehensive PubMed database search on syndromic HHI with cutaneous abnormalities, and reviewed a total of 260 relevant publications.
