Cell-cell interaction determines cell fate of mesoderm-derived cell in tongue development through Hh signaling

open access: yeseLife
Dysfunction of primary cilia leads to genetic disorder, ciliopathies, which shows various malformations in many vital organs such as brain. Multiple tongue deformities including cleft, hamartoma, and ankyloglossia are also seen in ciliopathies, which ...

Congenital solitary kidney in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease: Where do known genes end and the unknown begin?

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2023
Key Clinical Message We present the case of a 41‐year‐old man patient diagnosed with solitary left kidney with few cysts. He has a family history of unilateral renal agenesis (URA) but no for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD).

Development and disease of the photoreceptor cilium [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Exploring the role of fallopian ciliated cells in the pathogenesis of high-grade serous ovarian cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
High-grade serous epithelial ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is the fifth leading cause of cancer death in women and the first among gynecological malignancies. Despite an initial response to standard chemotherapy, most HGSOC patients relapse.

Case Report: A Novel In-Frame Deletion of GLIS2 Leading to Nephronophthisis and Early Onset Kidney Failure

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Variants in the GLIS family zinc finger protein 2 (GLIS2) are a rare cause of nephronophthisis-related ciliopathies (NPHP-RC). A reduction in urinary concentration and a progressive chronic tubulointerstitial nephropathy with corticomedullary cysts are ...

Expanding CEP290 mutational spectrum in ciliopathies [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, 2009
AbstractCiliopathies are an expanding group of rare conditions characterized by multiorgan involvement, that are caused by mutations in genes encoding for proteins of the primary cilium or its apparatus. Among these genes, CEP290 bears an intriguing allelic spectrum, being commonly mutated in Joubert syndrome and related disorders (JSRD), Meckel ...

Ocular manifestations of renal ciliopathies

open access: yesPediatric Nephrology, 2023
AbstractRenal ciliopathies are a common cause of kidney failure in children and adults, and this study reviewed their ocular associations. Genes affected in renal ciliopathies were identified from the Genomics England Panels. Ocular associations were identified from Medline and OMIM, and the genes additionally examined for expression in the human ...
