Ciliopathy: Usher Syndrome

2018
Ciliopathies are a group of disorders caused by a defect in ciliogenesis, ciliary protein trafficking. Because nearly every cell in the body (including the photoreceptors) contains cilia, defects in ciliary proteins typically affect multiple organ systems.

Cilia and ciliopathy

Genes & Cells, 2020
Cilia (cilia) are organelles that are characteristic exclusively for eukaryotes and are found in protozoa, on somatic and germ cells of multicellular, as well as gametes of many plants. In humans, two main types of cilia are distinguished: motile and sensory; also in embryogenesis, it is customary to isolate special nodular cilia necessary for the ...

Medical genetics of ciliopathies

Journal of Pediatric Genetics, 2015
Neither of us had heard about the existence of cilia during biology or genetics courses in high school or university. Nonetheless, these evolutionarily conserved, antenna-shaped organelles of the cell appear to be essential for human development and proper functioning of our organs.

Ciliopathy: Alström Syndrome

2018
Alström syndrome is an autosomal recessive disease with multisystem involvement, including cone-rod dystrophy, hearing loss, type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance with hyperinsulinemia, dilated cardiomyopathy, and progressive hepatic and renal failure.

Renal Pathology of Ciliopathies

Pediatric and Developmental Pathology
Renal ciliopathies are a group of genetic disorders that affect the function of the primary cilium in the kidney, as well as other organs. Since primary cilia are important for regulation of cell signaling pathways, ciliary dysfunction results in a range of clinical manifestations, including renal failure, cyst formation, and hypertension. We summarize

Zebrafish as a Model for Human Ciliopathies

Journal of Genetics and Genomics, 2016
Cilia, microtubule-based structures found on the surface of almost all vertebrate cells, play an array of diverse biological functions. Abnormal ciliary axonemal structure and function can result in a class of genetic disorders that are collectively termed ciliopathies.

Ciliopathies and DNA damage

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 2015
In the past decade a wealth of publications have established the central role of cilia and centrosomes in the pathogenesis of cystic kidney diseases, associated or not with extrarenal symptoms. This review outlines recent findings that have unexpectedly linked ciliary and centrosomal proteins to DNA damage and repair and have opened new perspectives ...

Ciliopathy: Bardet-Biedl Syndrome

2018
Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is an autosomal recessive disease with a prevalence of about 1/125,000. The syndrome involves mixed rod-cone dystrophy (which becomes obvious by 6 years of age). About two thirds of patients have postaxial polydactyly, and sometimes syndactyly, brachydactyly, and/or clinodactyly may be present.

Ciliopathies

Abstract Ciliopathies refer to a collection of disorders caused by defects in the formation or function of the primary cilium. The clinical manifestations of ciliopathies are broadly overlapping, yet highly variable. Syndromic ciliopathies, including Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS), Joubert syndrome (JBTS), Usher syndrome, and Senior-Løken ...
