Broadening horizons: Pathogenesis and therapeutics of renal ciliopathies
This review elucidates the molecular mechanisms and aberrant signaling pathways in renal ciliopathies, links genetic heterogeneity to clinical phenotypes, and lays a theoretical basis for prenatal diagnosis and novel therapies. Abstract Renal ciliopathies encompass a spectrum of genetic disorders arising from structural or functional impairments of ...

Hippocampal Subfield Volumetry and Navigation in Congenital Blindness
ABSTRACT The hippocampus is essential for efficient navigation. Although lack of visual experience from birth induces volumetric and structural modifications to the hippocampus, tactile and auditory navigation remain partially preserved in congenitally blind (CB) individuals.
