Case series: Joubert syndrome and eosinophilic esophagitis

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Joubert syndrome (JS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by developmental abnormalities, particularly in the brainstem and cerebellar vermis, alongside multisystem manifestations such as kidney and liver anomalies, polydactyly, cleft lip or palate, and tongue defects.

Fifteen years of research on oral–facial–digital syndromes: from 1 to 16 causal genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Oral–facial–digital syndromes (OFDS) gather rare genetic disorders characterised by facial, oral and digital abnormalities associated with a wide range of additional features (polycystic kidney disease, cerebral malformations and several others) to ...

Therapeutic potential of tetrahydroxylated bile acids in reducing liver injury: Insights from the Zfyve19−/− mouse model

open access: yesPediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
THBA (3α,6α,7α,12α‐Tetrahydroxy‐10β,13β‐pentanoic acid) administration can alleviate cholestatic liver injury, hepatocellular necrosis, inflammatory response, bile duct hyperplasia, and portal fibrosis in the Zfyve19−/− mouse model. This evaluation encompasses various parameters, including serum biochemistry, liver histology, immunostaining, and ...

Disease-Associated Mutations in CEP120 Destabilize the Protein and Impair Ciliogenesis

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Ciliopathies are a group of genetic disorders caused by a failure to form functional cilia. Due to a lack of structural information, it is currently poorly understood how ciliopathic mutations affect protein functionality to give rise to the underlying ...

Wdpcp, a PCP Protein Required for Ciliogenesis, Regulates Directional Cell Migration and Cell Polarity by Direct Modulation of the Actin Cytoskeleton [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Planar cell polarity (PCP) regulates cell alignment required for collective cell movement during embryonic development. This requires PCP/PCP effector proteins, some of which also play essential roles in ciliogenesis, highlighting the long-standing ...

Genetic risk factor identification for common epilepsies guided by integrative omics data analysis

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic generalized epilepsies (GGEs) comprise the most common genetically determined epilepsy syndromes, following a complex mode of inheritance. Although many important common and rare genetic factors causing or contributing to these epilepsies have been identified in the past decades, many features of the genetic architecture are ...

Identification of Important Effector Proteins in the FOXJ1 Transcriptional Network Associated With Ciliogenesis and Ciliary Function

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2019
Developmental defects in motile cilia, arising from genetic abnormalities in one or more ciliary genes, can lead to a common ciliopathy known as primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). Functional studies in model organisms undertaken to understand PCD or cilia

Growth‐regulating proteins differ between British seawater fish species, shedding light on their ecological adaptations

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Wnt proteins are a family of molecules that help control how cells grow, develop and communicate – processes that are fundamental to the development and health of all animals. Although Wnt pathways have been studied extensively in model species, very little is known about how they operate in marine fish.

HSD17B4 deficiency causes dysregulation of primary cilia and is alleviated by acetyl-CoA

open access: yesNature Communications
Primary cilia are dynamic sensory organelles orchestrating key signaling pathways, and disruption of primary ciliogenesis is implicated in a spectrum of genetic disorders. The peroxisomal bifunctional enzyme HSD17B4 is pivotal for peroxisomal β-oxidation

Novel biomarkers of ciliary extracellular vesicles interact with ciliopathy and Alzheimer’s associated proteins

open access: yesCommunicative & Integrative Biology, 2021
Ciliary extracellular vesicles (ciEVs), released from primary cilia, contain functional proteins that play an important role in cilia structure and functions.
