Progressive Retinal Degeneration and Juvenile Nephronophthisis in a Patient with Autosomal Recessive Ciliopathy: A Case Report [PDF]
Introduction: Inherited retinal diseases, particularly ciliopathies, often lead to irreversible blindness and are frequently accompanied by systemic manifestations such as nephronophthisis.

Calpain1 inhibition enhances autophagy-lysosomal pathway and ameliorates tubulointerstitial fibrosis in Nephronophthisis [PDF]
Background Nephronophthisis (NPH) is classified under the category of renal ciliopathies and is the most common genetic disease leading to renal failure in children. Early-onset and progressive renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis represents one of the most

Case Report: Effects of Secondary Hyperparathyroidism Treatment on Improvement of Juvenile Nephronophthisis-Induced Pancytopenia and Myelofibrosis [PDF]
Secondary hyperparathyroidism (HPT) is a common complication of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and may be an important precipitating factor for the development of myelofibrosis.

NPHP is the most common monogenic cause of CKD in children or adolescents. Extra-renal symptoms often accompany, therefore examination of retina, hearing, and skeleton is necessary in patients with CKD with insidious onset.

Senior–Loken Syndrome: Ocular Perspectives on Genetics, Pathogenesis, and Management [PDF]
Senior–Loken syndrome (SLSN) is a group of rare autosomal recessive disorders caused by dysfunction of the primary cilium, primarily affecting the kidneys (typically leading to nephronophthisis) and eyes (typically leading to retinal degeneration ...

Prostaglandin Analogs and Eupatilin as Treatments for Nephronophthisis
Introduction: Primary cilia (PCs) are sensory antennae that are present on the majority of quiescent vertebrate cells where they mediate key signaling during development and in response to environmental stimuli.
