ABSTRACT Neuro‐ichthyosis is a rare group of disorders characterized by the coexistence of neurological dysfunction and ichthyotic skin changes. We report a 5‐year‐old girl born to consanguineous parents who presented with pharmacoresistant epilepsy, severe developmental delay, microcephaly, and ichthyosis.

Disruption of the basal body protein POC1B results in autosomal-recessive cone-rod dystrophy [PDF]
Exome sequencing revealed a homozygous missense mutation (c.317C>G [p.Arg106Pro]) in POC1B, encoding POC1 centriolar protein B, in three siblings with autosomal-recessive cone dystrophy or cone-rod dystrophy and compound-heterozygous POC1B mutations (c ...

Wnt Signaling Pathway: Biological Function, Diseases, and Therapeutic Interventions
The Wnt signaling pathway is essential for development and tissue homeostasis, while its dysregulation drives diverse diseases. This review systematically outlines its components, functions, regulators, and preclinical models, highlighting secreted frizzled‐related proteins (SFRPs) as context‐dependent, biphasic modulators.

Nystagmus in a newborn: a manifestation of Joubert syndrome in the neonatal period. [PDF]
Joubert syndrome is a rare disorder, usually autosomal recessive, with a prevalence of 1:80 000 to 1:100 000. This disease presents most commonly as breathing irregularities, although the two major clinical criteria are hypotonia and developmental delay,

Primary Cilia, Hypoxia, and Liver Dysfunction: A New Perspective on Biliary Atresia
Ciliopathies are disorders that affect primary or secondary cellular cilia or structures associated with ciliary function. Primary cilia (PC) are essential for metabolic regulation and embryonic development, and pathogenic variants in cilia-related genes

The emerging role of tubulin posttranslational modifications in cilia and ciliopathies
Tubulin posttranslational modifications (PTMs) add “tubulin code” to generate functional diversities of microtubules. Several types of tubulin PTMs accumulate on axonemes and basal bodies of cilia, including acetylation, glutamylation, glycylation and ...

Inducible Ift88‐deficient mice show features consistent with mild pulmonary hypertension
Abstract Intraflagellar transport protein 88 (IFT88) is essential for primary and motile cilia formation. In murine models and humans, Ift88 mutations contribute to renal cysts, epithelial proliferation and impaired immune responses. In mice, Ift88 knockout (KO) reduces airway cilia, increases airway epithelial proliferation and hyperreactivity ...
