werner's syndrome - premature aging Definition for Werner's Syndrome Werner syndrome is a very rare, autosomal recessive disorder; its most recognizable characteristic is premature aging. more Werner syndrome is a very rare, autosomal recessive disorder; its most recognizable characteristic is premature aging. Werner's syndrome more closely resembles "accelerated aging" than any other "segmental progeria." For this reason, Werner syndrome is often referred to as a progeroid syndrome, as it partly mimics the symptoms of Progeria. The defect is on a gene that codes DNA helicase and it is located on the short arm of the 8th chromosome. As a result DNA replication is impaired in this syndrome. This condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. less some common symptoms face deformities muscle wasting not gaining weight scalp hair loss some related diagnoses 1 - 7 of 13 diagnoses fetal alcohol syndrome syphilis pituitary adenoma hypothyroidism multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2b relapsing polychondritis   more do i have 'Werner's Syndrome'?
