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

CPLANE Complex and Ciliopathies

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Primary cilia are non-motile organelles associated with the cell cycle, which can be found in most vertebrate cell types. Cilia formation occurs through a process called ciliogenesis, which involves several mechanisms including planar cell polarity (PCP) and the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway.

The nonmotile ciliopathies [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics in Medicine, 2009
Over the last 5 years, disorders of nonmotile cilia have come of age and their study has contributed immeasurably to our understanding of cell biology and human genetics. This review summarizes the main features of the ciliopathies, their underlying genetics, and the functions of the proteins involved. We describe some of the key findings in the field,

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.

Ciliopathies in pediatric endocrinology

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2023
Ciliopathies are a group of disorders that involve many organs and systems. In this review, we consider the role of the cilium in multiorgan pathology with a focus on endocrinological aspects. Identification of new genes and mutations is the major challenge in development of a tailored and appropriate therapy.

TMEM218 dysfunction causes ciliopathies, including Joubert and Meckel syndromes

open access: yesHGG 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 ...

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

open access: yesCell & 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 ...

Rare Case of Laurence-Moon-Bardet-Biedl Syndrome With Pulmonary Hypertension: A Case Report. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Laurence‐Moon‐Bardet‐Biedl Syndrome is a complicated polygenic disorder that can have lethal manifestations such as pulmonary hypertension. Early recognition, comprehensive medical treatment, and psychological intervention for the family are crucial, but survival is usually short in those with a poor functional status and increasingly impaired

PIH1D3-knockout rats exhibit full ciliopathy features and dysfunctional pre-assembly and loading of dynein arms in motile cilia

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Background: Recessive mutation of the X-linked gene, PIH1 domain-containing protein 3 (PIH1D3), causes familial ciliopathy. PIH1D3 deficiency is associated with the defects of dynein arms in cilia, but how PIH1D3 specifically affects the structure and ...

Case Report: Identification of likely recurrent CEP290 mutation in a child with Joubert syndrome and cerebello-retinal-renal features. [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2023
Background. Joubert syndrome (JS) is a rare autosomal recessive ciliopathy with an estimated prevalence of 1 in 100,000. JS is characterized by hyperpnoea, hypotonia, ataxia, developmental delay and various neuropathological abnormalities in the brain ...
