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 ...

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.

Golgi Dysfunctions in Ciliopathies

open access: yesCells, 2022
The Golgi apparatus (GA) is essential for intracellular sorting, trafficking and the targeting of proteins to specific cellular compartments. Anatomically, the GA spreads all over the cell but is also particularly enriched close to the base of the ...

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

open access: yesNature 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 ...

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.

Motile ciliopathies

open access: yesNature Reviews Disease Primers, 2020
Motile cilia are highly complex hair-like organelles of epithelial cells lining the surface of various organ systems. Genetic mutations (usually with autosomal recessive inheritance) that impair ciliary beating cause a variety of motile ciliopathies, a heterogeneous group of rare disorders. The pathogenetic mechanisms, clinical symptoms and severity of

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 ...

Insights Gained From Zebrafish Models for the Ciliopathy Joubert Syndrome

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

Ciliopathies [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2016
Nephronophthisis-related ciliopathies (NPHP-RC) are a group of inherited diseases that affect genes encoding proteins that localize to primary cilia or centrosomes. With few exceptions, ciliopathies are inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, and affected individuals manifest early during childhood or adolescence.

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.
