  • A new progeroid syndrome with severe neuropathy and intellectual deficits was identified.
  • Exome sequencing revealed a homozygous mutation in the IVNS1ABP gene.
  • Mutant IVNS1ABP leads to defective cytokinesis, increased DNA damage, and premature cellular senescence.
  • Cerebral organoids showed early differentiation of NPCs into neurons.
  • Mutant IVNS1ABP dysregulates actin polymerization and organization, contributing to cellular senescence.
  • The study used isogenic iPSCs derived from patient fibroblasts to investigate disease mechanisms.
