Orofacial-digital syndrome type 1 with patchy scalp alopecia in an Indian child
Introduction: Oral-facial-digital syndrome (OFDS) is a rare type of ectodermal dysplasias characterized by malformations of the face, oral cavity, and digits. The OFDS type 1 is most common and has an X-linked dominant inheritance. Case report: We report

Ciliary Dyneins and Dynein Related Ciliopathies
Although ubiquitously present, the relevance of cilia for vertebrate development and health has long been underrated. However, the aberration or dysfunction of ciliary structures or components results in a large heterogeneous group of disorders in ...

Zebrafish Assays of Ciliopathies [PDF]
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 ...

Centriolar Protein C2cd3 Is Required for Craniofacial Development
The primary cilium is a ubiquitous, microtubule-based cellular organelle. Primary cilia dysfunction results in a group of disorders termed ciliopathies. C2 domain containing 3 centriole elongation regulator (C2cd3), encodes a centriolar protein essential

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.

Ciliopathies A reference for clinicians [PDF]
This is a multi-author book encompassing 14 chapters on diseases associated with defects in proteins expressed in the primary cilia, a structure long regarded as a useless vestigial organelle. The first chapter covers our current knowledge of the structure and biology of the motile and non-motile (primary) cilia and proposes a clinical diagnosis ...

Case Report:Pregnancy and birth in a mild phenotype of Alström syndrome
Background: Alström syndrome (AS) is an ultrarare multisystemic progressive disease caused by autosomal recessive variations of the ALMS1 gene (2p13). AS is characterized by double sensory impairment, cardiomyopathy, childhood obesity, extreme insulin ...
