Dzip1 and Fam92 form a ciliary transition zone complex with cell type specific roles in Drosophila

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Cilia and flagella are conserved eukaryotic organelles essential for cellular signaling and motility. Cilia dysfunctions cause life-threatening ciliopathies, many of which are due to defects in the transition zone (TZ), a complex structure of the ciliary

Situs Inversus Totalis: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Situs Inversus Totalis (SIT) is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by the complete mirror‐image transposition of the thoracoabdominal viscera. Although typically it has a favorable prognosis, SIT can be associated with ciliopathy‐related disorders, most notably Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD).

Educational paper [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Pediatrics, 2011
Cilia are antenna-like organelles found on the surface of most cells. They transduce molecular signals and facilitate interactions between cells and their environment. Ciliary dysfunction has been shown to underlie a broad range of overlapping, clinically and genetically heterogeneous phenotypes, collectively termed ciliopathies.
