Renal ciliopathies

Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 2019
Renal ciliopathies are a group of disorders characterised by nephronophthisis, cystic kidneys or renal cystic dysplasia whose underlying disease pathogenesis is related to abnormal structure or function of the primary cilia complex. The number of renal ciliopathies continues to expand as genomic and genetic approaches identify novel causes.

The Retinal Ciliopathies

Ophthalmic Genetics, 2007
While the functions of many of the proteins located in or associated with the photoreceptor cilia are poorly understood, disruption of the function of these proteins may result in a wide variety of phenotypes ranging from isolated retinal degeneration to more pleiotropic phenotypes.

Ciliopathy: Usher Syndrome

2018
Ciliopathies are a group of disorders caused by a defect in ciliogenesis, ciliary protein trafficking. Because nearly every cell in the body (including the photoreceptors) contains cilia, defects in ciliary proteins typically affect multiple organ systems.

Ciliopathy: Alström Syndrome

2018
Alström syndrome is an autosomal recessive disease with multisystem involvement, including cone-rod dystrophy, hearing loss, type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance with hyperinsulinemia, dilated cardiomyopathy, and progressive hepatic and renal failure. Patients present in childhood with photophobia and nystagmus, and mimic Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA)

Ciliopathies: Genetic Counseling

Journal of Pediatric Neurology, 2022
AbstractJoubert syndrome (JS) follows autosomal recessive inheritance, with rare X-linked recessive cases. The disease is genetically heterogeneous with neurological features associated with multiorgan involvement (e.g., retinal dystrophy, nephronophthisis, hepatic fibrosis, and polydactyly).

Primary ciliary dyskinesia. Ciliopathies

Acta Otorrinolaringologica (English Edition), 2010
Primary ciliary dyskinesia is a genetically inherited syndrome characterized by cilia immotility or dysmotility. Deficiency in mucociliary clearance produces chronic respiratory infections since birth, male sterility by spermatozoid immotility and situs inversus in 40-50% of patients (Kartagener's syndrome).

Medical genetics of ciliopathies

Journal of Pediatric Genetics, 2015
Neither of us had heard about the existence of cilia during biology or genetics courses in high school or university. Nonetheless, these evolutionarily conserved, antenna-shaped organelles of the cell appear to be essential for human development and proper functioning of our organs.

Renal ciliopathies

Primary cilia are essential cellular organelles with pivotal roles in many signalling pathways. Here we provide an overview of the role of primary cilia within the kidney, starting with primary ciliary structure and key protein complexes. We then highlight the specialised functions of primary cilia, emphasising their role in a group of diseases known ...

Cilia and ciliopathy

Genes & Cells, 2020
Cilia (cilia) are organelles that are characteristic exclusively for eukaryotes and are found in protozoa, on somatic and germ cells of multicellular, as well as gametes of many plants. In humans, two main types of cilia are distinguished: motile and sensory; also in embryogenesis, it is customary to isolate special nodular cilia necessary for the ...

[Ciliopathies].

Klinische Monatsblatter fur Augenheilkunde, 2019
Ciliopathies are disorders caused by ciliary dysfunction and can affect an organ system or tissues. Isolated or syndromic retinal dystrophies are the most common ocular manifestation of ciliopathies. The photoreceptor connecting cilium plays a leading role in these ciliopathy-related retinal dystrophies. Dysfunctional photoreceptor cilia cause the most
