OR

Common causes of [disease] include [cause1], [cause2], and [cause3].

OR

The most common cause of [disease name] is [cause 1]. Less common causes of [disease name] include [cause 2], [cause 3], and [cause 4].

Causes

Life-threatening Causes

  • Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. There are no life-threatening causes of disease name, however complications resulting from untreated disease name is common.
  • Life-threatening causes of [symptom/manifestation] include [cause1], [cause2], and [cause3].
  • [Cause] is a life-threatening cause of [disease].

Common Causes

Common causes of Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) may include:[1][2][3][4]

  • Mutation in LMNA gene which results in production of abnormal protein laminin A which is also called progerin
  • LMNA gene plays a very crucial role in the following:
    • Membrane which surrounds the cell’s nucleus and stabilizes the nuclear membrane.
  • The location of the LMNA gene is on chromosome 1.

Less Common Causes

Less common causes of [disease name] include:

  • [Cause1]
  • [Cause2]
  • [Cause3]

Genetic Causes

  • Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is caused by a mutation in the LMNA gene.
