Fifteen years of research on oral–facial–digital syndromes: from 1 to 16 causal genes [PDF]

, 2017
Oral–facial–digital syndromes (OFDS) gather rare genetic disorders characterised by facial, oral and digital abnormalities associated with a wide range of additional features (polycystic kidney disease, cerebral malformations and several others) to ...

Loss of Twist1 leads to disruption of ciliary length, endocytic vesicle dynamics, and cell–cell junctions during neural tube formation

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Endocytosis constitutes a fundamental cellular process governing development through coordinated regulation of plasma membrane remodeling and ciliogenesis, processes essential for cell shape changes and tissue development. Although Twist1 null embryos display complete cranial neural tube (NT) closure defects and conditional knockout

Cilia, ciliopathies and hedgehog-related forebrain developmental disorders

Neurobiology of Disease, 2021
Development of the forebrain critically depends on the Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway, as illustrated in humans by the frequent perturbation of this pathway in holoprosencephaly, a condition defined as a defect in the formation of midline ...

Hedgehog Pathway Activation Alters Ciliary Signaling in Primary Hypothalamic Cultures [PDF]

, 2019
Primary cilia dysfunction has been associated with hyperphagia and obesity in both ciliopathy patients and mouse models of cilia perturbation. Neurons throughout the brain possess these solitary cellular appendages, including in the feeding centers of ...

Evaluating the Utility of RNAseq in Prenatal Diagnostics: Expression Profiles of Cultured Chorionic Villus and Amniotic Fluid Samples

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective While RNAseq has enhanced variant interpretation in postnatal cases, its potential in the prenatal setting remains underexplored. This study investigates the utility of RNAseq in prenatal diagnostics by analyzing the expression profiles of cultured chorionic villus samples (cCVS) and amniotic fluid (cAF) samples. Methods We performed

Molecular genetics of renal ciliopathies

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2021
Renal ciliopathies are a heterogenous group of inherited disorders leading to an array of phenotypes that include cystic kidney disease and renal interstitial fibrosis leading to progressive chronic kidney disease and end-stage kidney disease. The renal tubules are lined with epithelial cells that possess primary cilia that project into the lumen and ...

Development and disease of the photoreceptor cilium [PDF]

, 2009
Primary cilia are microtubule-rich hair-like extensions protruding from the surface of most post-mitotic cells. They act as sensory organelles that help interpret various environmental cues.

Monogenic and syndromic obesity in children: Clinical recognition, genetics, and precision management

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Monogenic and syndromic obesity in children often arises from defects in the leptin–melanocortin pathway. Understanding these rare genetic causes not only clarifies mechanisms of appetite regulation but also enables precision therapies, offering hope beyond lifestyle interventions.

Ciliopathies: Coloring outside of the lines [PDF]

American 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
