Proper Citation: Progeria Cell and Tissue Bank (RRID:SCR_004194)
Description: The PRF Cell & Tissue Bank provides medical researchers with genetic and biological material from Progeria patients and their families, so that research on Progeria and other age-related diseases can be performed. We''ve been hard at work with the families and their physicians to gather these precious biological materials. As you know, Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome is an extremely rare condition. Thus while access to cell lines is essential for studying the biology and genetics of the disorder, there are very few cell lines in existence. Because an integral part of PRF''s mission is to stimulate interest in, and NIH funding opportunities for, Progeria research, there is an increased need for cell lines. The PRF Cell Bank will ensure that need is met! The goals of The PRF Cell & Tissue Bank are to promote: * Sufficient availability of cells for approved research projects * Incentive for new research projects * Study of the biochemical basis for Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome * Discoveries leading to new treatments for children with Progeria * Discovery of a cure for Progeria
