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

Cell 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.

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

HGG 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]

Fujita 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

Cells, 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.

The human ciliopathy protein RSG1 links the CPLANE complex to transition zone architecture [PDF]

Nature Communications
Cilia are essential organelles, and variants in genes governing ciliary function result in ciliopathic diseases. The Ciliogenesis and PLANar polarity Effectors (CPLANE) protein complex is essential for ciliogenesis, and all but one subunit of the CPLANE ...

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

Frontiers 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 ...

Insights Gained From Zebrafish Models for the Ciliopathy Joubert Syndrome

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
Cilia are quasi-ubiquitous microtubule-based sensory organelles, which play vital roles in signal transduction during development and cell homeostasis.

CiliOPD: a ciliopathy-associated COPD endotype

Respiratory 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.

IK is essentially involved in ciliogenesis as an upstream regulator of oral-facial-digital syndrome ciliopathy gene, ofd1

Cell & Bioscience, 2023
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 ...

TMEM218 dysfunction causes ciliopathies, including Joubert and Meckel syndromes

HGG Advances, 2021
Summary: The Joubert-Meckel syndrome spectrum is a continuum of recessive ciliopathy conditions caused by primary cilium dysfunction. The primary cilium is a microtubule-based, antenna-like organelle that projects from the surface of most human cell ...
