ARL3 mutations cause Joubert syndrome by disrupting ciliary protein composition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Joubert syndrome (JBTS) is a genetically heterogeneous autosomal recessive neurodevelopmental ciliopathy. We investigated further the underlying genetic etiology of Joubert syndrome by studying two unrelated families in whom JBTS was not associated ...

Ciliopathies: Coloring outside of the lines [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, 2020
AbstractCiliopathy syndromes are a diverse spectrum of disease characterized by a combination of cystic kidney disease, hepatobiliary disease, retinopathy, skeletal dysplasia, developmental delay, and brain malformations. Though generally divided into distinct disease categories based on the pattern of system involvement, ciliopathy syndromes are known

RPGR protein complex regulates proteasome activity and mediates store-operated calcium entry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Ciliopathies are a group of genetically heterogeneous disorders, characterized by defects in cilia genesis or maintenance. Mutations in the RPGR gene and its interacting partners, RPGRIP1 and RPGRIP1L, cause ciliopathies, but the function of their ...

A novel WDR60 variant contributes to a late diagnosis of Jeune asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy in a Chinese patient: A case report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2022
We report a Chinese patient with JATD presenting a mild skeletal phenotype and with renal insufficiency as the initial symptom of the disease. A novel homozygous c.2789C>T (p.S930L) variant in the WDR60 gene was identified.

Medical genetics of ciliopathies

open access: yesJournal 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.

Mutations in DYNC2LI1 disrupt cilia function and cause short rib polydactyly syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The short rib polydactyly syndromes (SRPSs) are a heterogeneous group of autosomal recessive, perinatal lethal skeletal disorders characterized primarily by short, horizontal ribs, short limbs and polydactyly.

Zebrafish Assays of Ciliopathies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In light of the growing list of human disorders associated with their dysfunction, primary cilia have recently come to attention as being important regulators of developmental signaling pathways and downstream processes. These organelles, present on nearly every vertebrate cell type, are highly conserved structures allowing for study across a range of ...

Reversal of ciliary mechanisms of disassembly rescues olfactory dysfunction in ciliopathies

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2022
Ciliopathies are a class of genetic diseases resulting in cilia dysfunction in multiple organ systems, including the olfactory system. Currently, there are no available curative treatments for olfactory dysfunction and other symptoms in ciliopathies. The

A Case Report on the Bardet Biedl Syndrome with Hypokalaemic Paralysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2013
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.
