Combined exome and whole-genome sequencing identifies mutations in ARMC4 as a cause of primary ciliary dyskinesia with defects in the outer dynein arm [PDF]
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare, genetically heterogeneous ciliopathy disorder affecting cilia and sperm motility. A range of ultrastructural defects of the axoneme underlie the disease, which is characterised by chronic respiratory symptoms ...

Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease: Case report [PDF]
Introduction. Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease is the most common heritable cystic renal disease occurring in infancy and childhood. The clinical spectrum of signs and symptoms of this disease is widely variable ranging from perinatal death ...

Basal body stability and ciliogenesis requires the conserved component Poc1 [PDF]
Centrioles are the foundation for centrosome and cilia formation. The biogenesis of centrioles is initiated by an assembly mechanism that first synthesizes the ninefold symmetrical cartwheel and subsequently leads to a stable cylindrical microtubule ...

Molecular genetics of renal ciliopathies
Renal ciliopathies are a heterogenous group of inherited disorders leading to an array of phenotypes that include cystic kidney disease and renal interstitial fibrosis leading to progressive chronic kidney disease and end-stage kidney disease. The renal tubules are lined with epithelial cells that possess primary cilia that project into the lumen and ...

A family of congenital hepatic fibrosis and atypical retinitis pigmentosa
Congenital hepatic fibrosis is a rare cause of portal hypertension and esophageal varices in children. We report cases of siblings with biopsy proven congenital hepatic fibrosis and with atypical retinitis pigmentosa.

Novel Compound Heterozygous Variants in MKS1 Leading to Joubert Syndrome
Joubert syndrome (JBTS) and Meckel–Gruber syndrome (MKS) are rare recessive disorders caused by defects of cilia, and they share overlapping clinical features and allelic loci.

Ciliopathies A reference for clinicians [PDF]
This is a multi-author book encompassing 14 chapters on diseases associated with defects in proteins expressed in the primary cilia, a structure long regarded as a useless vestigial organelle. The first chapter covers our current knowledge of the structure and biology of the motile and non-motile (primary) cilia and proposes a clinical diagnosis ...
