Nephronophthisis: a genetically diverse ciliopathy. [PDF]
Nephronophthisis (NPHP) is an autosomal recessive cystic kidney disease and a leading genetic cause of established renal failure (ERF) in children and young adults.

HSD17B4 deficiency causes dysregulation of primary cilia and is alleviated by acetyl-CoA [PDF]
Primary cilia are dynamic sensory organelles orchestrating key signaling pathways, and disruption of primary ciliogenesis is implicated in a spectrum of genetic disorders. The peroxisomal bifunctional enzyme HSD17B4 is pivotal for peroxisomal β-oxidation

IK is essentially involved in ciliogenesis as an upstream regulator of oral-facial-digital syndrome ciliopathy gene, ofd1 [PDF]
Background The cilia are microtubule-based organelles that protrude from the cell surface. Abnormalities in cilia result in various ciliopathies, including polycystic kidney disease (PKD), Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS), and oral-facial-digital syndrome ...

Performance and clinical utility of a new supervised machine-learning pipeline in detecting rare ciliopathy patients based on deep phenotyping from electronic health records and semantic similarity [PDF]
Background Rare diseases affect approximately 400 million people worldwide. Many of them suffer from delayed diagnosis. Among them, NPHP1-related renal ciliopathies need to be diagnosed as early as possible as potential treatments have been recently ...
