Senior- Loken Syndrome – A Ciliopathy

open access: yesJOURNAL OF CLINICAL AND DIAGNOSTIC RESEARCH, 2014
Senior - Loken syndrome is a rare combination of juvenile nephronophthisis and tapeto - retinal degeneration. The author describes two patients who presented with varying degrees of retinal dystrophy and renal insufficiency in their second decade of life. Both the patients presented with severe renal failure requiring hemodialysis.

The \u3cem\u3eChlamydomonas\u3c/em\u3e Genome Reveals the Evolution of Key Animal and Plant Functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a unicellular green alga whose lineage diverged from land plants over 1 billion years ago. It is a model system for studying chloroplast-based photosynthesis, as well as the structure, assembly, and function of eukaryotic ...

Cauli: a mouse strain with an Ift140 mutation that results in a skeletal ciliopathy modelling jeune syndrome

open access: yes, 2015
Cilia are architecturally complex organelles that protrude from the cell membrane and have signalling, sensory and motility functions that are central to normal tissue development and homeostasis.

An organelle-specific protein landscape identifies novel diseases and molecular mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cellular organelles provide opportunities to relate biological mechanisms to disease. Here we use affinity proteomics, genetics and cell biology to interrogate cilia: poorly understood organelles, where defects cause genetic diseases.

Identification and bioinformatics analysis of cilia-associated gene families in Euplotes amieti (Ciliophora, Hypotrichia)

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionCiliates serve as pivotal model organisms for investigating the protein composition and regulatory mechanisms underlying cellular processes. This study systematically explores the structural and functional characteristics of cilia-associated ...

FAM161A, associated with retinitis pigmentosa, is a component of the cilia-basal body complex and interacts with proteins involved in ciliopathies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a retinal degenerative disease characterized by the progressive loss of photoreceptors. We have previously demonstrated that RP can be caused by recessive mutations in the human FAM161A gene, encoding a protein with unknown ...

CKD in Bardet-Biedl Syndrome: Evidence Supporting Multifactorial Etiology

open access: yesKidney International Reports
Introduction: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a critical prognostic factor in Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS). Early diagnosis and intervention are essential for improving patient outcomes.
