Primary Cilium-Mediated Retinal Pigment Epithelium Maturation Is Disrupted in Ciliopathy Patient Cells

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: Primary cilia are sensory organelles that protrude from the cell membrane. Defects in the primary cilium cause ciliopathy disorders, with retinal degeneration as a prominent phenotype.

CiliOPD: a ciliopathy-associated COPD endotype

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2021
The pathophysiology of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) relies on airway remodelling and inflammation. Alterations of mucociliary clearance are a major hallmark of COPD caused by structural and functional cilia abnormalities.

Identical IFT140 Variants Cause Variable Skeletal Ciliopathy Phenotypes—Challenges for the Accurate Diagnosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Ciliopathies are rare congenital disorders, caused by defects in the cilium, that cover a broad clinical spectrum. A subgroup of ciliopathies showing significant phenotypic overlap are known as skeletal ciliopathies and include Jeune asphyxiating ...

Comparison of structural progression between ciliopathy and non-ciliopathy associated with autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2019
Background To evaluate and compare the progression of ciliopathy and non-ciliopathy autosomal recessive Retinitis Pigmentosa patients (arRP) by measuring the constriction of hyperautofluorescent rings in fundus autofluorescence (FAF) images and the ...

PATJ deficiency leads to cystic kidney disease and related ciliopathies [PDF]

open access: yesHGG Advances
Summary: Cystic kidney disease and related ciliopathies are caused by pathogenic variants in genes that commonly result in ciliary dysfunction. For a substantial number of individuals affected by those cilia-related diseases, the causative gene remains ...

Pathophysiological significance of cholesterol in ciliopathies [PDF]

open access: yesFujita Medical Journal
Primary cilia are sensory organelles essential for cellular signaling, the dysfunction of which causes ciliopathies, characterized by polycystic kidney disease, retinopathy, and developmental anomalies.

Ciliopathy-Associated Protein Kinase ICK Requires Its Non-Catalytic Carboxyl-Terminal Domain for Regulation of Ciliogenesis

open access: yesCells, 2019
Loss-of-function mutations in the human ICK (intestinal cell kinase) gene cause dysfunctional primary cilia and perinatal lethality which are associated with human ciliopathies.
