Mutation-agnostic base editing of the progerin farnesylation site rescues Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome phenotypes in neuromuscular organoids

Hutchinson Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a fatal premature aging disorder caused by pathogenic farnesylated lamin A variants that disrupt nuclear architecture and DNA repair. Current therapies, including farnesyltransferase inhibitors, provide only modest survival benefits and lack molecular specificity, while mu...
