A Case Report on the Bardet Biedl Syndrome with Hypokalaemic Paralysis [PDF]
The Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS), a rare autosomal recessive disorder, was first described by Bardet and Biedl in 1920. Here, we are reporting a case of the Bardet-Biedl syndrome with hypokalaemic paralysis.

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 ...

Insights into the Regulation of Ciliary Disassembly
The primary cilium, an antenna-like structure that protrudes out from the cell surface, is present in most cell types. It is a microtubule-based organelle that serves as a mega-signaling center and is important for sensing biochemical and mechanical ...

Review on Genes related to Postaxial Polydactyly
Background: Postaxial polydactyly (PAP) is one of the commonest congenital malformations and usually is associated to several syndromes . There is no primary investigational strategy for PAP cases with single gene disorder in literature.

AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE POLYCYSTIC KIDNEY DISEASE
Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is an inherited ciliopathy caused by mutations in the PKHD1 gene, which encodes the membrane protein fibrocystin/polyductin.

A centriole's subdistal appendages: contributions to cell division, ciliogenesis and differentiation [PDF]
The centrosome is a highly conserved structure composed of two centrioles surrounded by pericentriolar material. The mother, and inherently older, centriole has distal and subdistal appendages, whereas the daughter centriole is devoid of these appendage ...

Primary cilia — the cellular organelles derived from cytoplasmic cell membrane of almost any type. They play a role in the perception and the transfer of mechanical and chemical signals from the surface of cells, orientation of division plane ...
