Ciliopathies: Genetics in Pediatric Medicine [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Genetics, 2016
Ciliary disorders, which are also referred to as ciliopathies, are a group of hereditary disorders that result from dysfunctional cilia. The latter are cellular organelles that stick up from the apical plasma membrane. Cilia have important roles in signal transduction and facilitate communications between cells and their surroundings.

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.

Cildb: a knowledgebase for centrosomes and cilia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Ciliopathies, pleiotropic diseases provoked by defects in the structure or function of cilia or flagella, reflect the multiple roles of cilia during development, in stem cells, in somatic organs and germ cells.

How exome sequencing improves the diagnostics and management of men with non‐syndromic infertility

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Male infertility affects approximately 17% of all men and represents a complex disorder in which not only semen parameters such as sperm motility, morphology, and number of sperm are highly variable, but also testicular phenotypes range from normal spermatogenesis to complete absence of germ cells.

Computational and molecular dissection of an X-box cis-Regulatory module [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Ciliopathies are a class of human diseases marked by dysfunction of the cellular organelle, cilia. While many of the molecular components that make up cilia have been identified and studied, comparatively little is understood about the transcriptional regulation of genes encoding these components. The conserved transcription factor Regulatory Factor X (

Human asthenozoospermia: Update on genetic causes, patient management, and clinical strategies

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In mammals, sperm fertilization potential relies on efficient progression within the female genital tract to reach and fertilize the oocyte. This fundamental property is supported by the flagellum, an evolutionarily conserved organelle, which contains dynein motor proteins that provide the mechanical force for sperm propulsion and ...

Stacked Neural Networks for end-to-end ciliary motion analysis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Cilia are hairlike structures protruding from nearly every cell in the body. Diseases known as ciliopathies, where cilia function is disrupted, can result in a wide spectrum of disorders. However, most techniques for assessing ciliary motion rely on manual identification and tracking of cilia; this process is laborious and error-prone, and does not ...

Analysis of cilia dysfunction phenotypes in zebrafish embryos depleted of origin recognition complex factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Meier–Gorlin syndrome (MGS) is a rare, congenital primordial microcephalic dwarfism disorder. MGS is caused by genetic variants of components of the origin recognition complex (ORC) consisting of ORC1–6 and the pre-replication complex, which together ...

Multimerization of Zika Virus-NS5 Causes Ciliopathy and Forces Premature Neurogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Zika virus (ZikV) is a flavivirus that infects neural tissues, causing congenital microcephaly. ZikV has evolved multiple mechanisms to restrict proliferation and enhance cell death, although the underlying cellular events involved remain unclear.
