CPLANE Complex and Ciliopathies
Primary cilia are non-motile organelles associated with the cell cycle, which can be found in most vertebrate cell types. Cilia formation occurs through a process called ciliogenesis, which involves several mechanisms including planar cell polarity (PCP)

Golgi Dysfunctions in Ciliopathies
The Golgi apparatus (GA) is essential for intracellular sorting, trafficking and the targeting of proteins to specific cellular compartments. Anatomically, the GA spreads all over the cell but is also particularly enriched close to the base of the ...

Ciliopathies and the Kidney: A Review [PDF]
Primary cilia are specialized sensory organelles that protrude from the apical surface of most cell types. During the past 2 decades, they have been found to play important roles in tissue development and signal transduction, with mutations in ciliary-associated proteins resulting in a group of diseases collectively known as ciliopathies. Many of these

CiliaMiner: an integrated database for Ciliopathy Genes and Ciliopathies
Abstract Cilia are found in eukaryotic species ranging from single-celled organisms, such as Chlamydomonas reinhardtii , to humans, but not in plants. The ability to respond to repellents and/or attractants, regulate cell proliferation and differentiation, and provide cellular ...

Nephronophthisis-related ciliopathies (NPHP-RC) are a group of inherited diseases that affect genes encoding proteins that localize to primary cilia or centrosomes. With few exceptions, ciliopathies are inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, and affected individuals manifest early during childhood or adolescence.

Background: Ciliary dysfunction underlies a range of genetic disorders collectively termed ciliopathies, for which there are no treatments available. Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is characterised by multisystemic involvement, including rod-cone dystrophy ...

The nonmotile ciliopathies [PDF]
Over the last 5 years, disorders of nonmotile cilia have come of age and their study has contributed immeasurably to our understanding of cell biology and human genetics. This review summarizes the main features of the ciliopathies, their underlying genetics, and the functions of the proteins involved. We describe some of the key findings in the field,

The importance of genomic profiling for differential diagnosis of pediatric lung disease patients with suspected ciliopathies [PDF]
Introduction/Objective. Dysfunction of the axonemal structure leads to ciliopathies. Sensory and motile ciliopathies have been associated with numerous pediatric diseases, including respiratory diseases.

Primary cilia-associated protein IFT172 in ciliopathies
Cilium is a highly conserved antenna-like structure protruding from the surface of the cell membrane, which is widely distributed on most mammalian cells. Two types of cilia have been described so far which include motile cilia and immotile cilia and the

Mouse models of ciliopathies: the state of the art
The ciliopathies are an apparently disparate group of human diseases that all result from defects in the formation and/or function of cilia. They include disorders such as Meckel-Grüber syndrome (MKS), Joubert syndrome (JBTS), Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS)
