Senior- Loken Syndrome – A Ciliopathy [PDF]
Senior – Loken syndrome is a rare combination of juvenile nephronophthisis and tapeto – retinal degeneration. The author describes two patients who presented with varying degrees of retinal dystrophy and renal insufficiency in their second decade of ...

A Practical Guide to Genetic Eye Conditions for Paediatricians
ABSTRACT Introduction Inherited eye disorders, though individually rare, are a collectively common cause of paediatric vision impairment. Many occur as part of a syndrome, in association with congenital anomalies and/or growth/developmental disorders.

Uromodulin is expressed in renal primary cilia and UMOD mutations result in decreased ciliary uromodulin expression [PDF]
Uromodulin (UMOD) mutations are responsible for three autosomal dominant tubulo-interstitial nephropathies including medullary cystic kidney disease type 2 (MCKD2), familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy and glomerulocystic kidney disease.

Identification of an N-terminal glycogen synthase kinase 3 phosphorylation site which regulates the functional localisation of polycystin-2 in vivo and in vitro [PDF]
PKD2 is mutated in 15% of patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Polycystin-2 (PC2), the PKD2 protein, is a nonselective Ca2 + -permeable cation channel which may function at the cell surface and ER. Nevertheless, the factors

Primary cilia (PC) are microtubule-based organelles that function as cellular antennae to sense and transduce extracellular signals. Nephronophthisis 3 (NPHP3) is localized in the inversin compartment of PC.

A Longitudinal Case Study of Renal Cyst Progression and Regression in Trisomy 13
Multiple T2‐weighted high‐signal‐intensity structures were observed in both kidneys accompanied by bilateral renal enlargement in a male neonate with trisomy 13. ABSTRACT Trisomy 13 is a chromosomal disorder frequently associated with congenital anomalies, including polycystic kidney disease (PKD).

The Role of Centrosome Distal Appendage Proteins (DAPs) in Nephronophthisis and Ciliogenesis
The primary cilium is found in most mammalian cells and plays a functional role in tissue homeostasis and organ development by modulating key signaling pathways.

Genetic testing for nephrotic syndrome and FSGS in the era of next-generation sequencing [PDF]
The haploid human genome is composed of three billion base pairs, about one percent of which consists of exonic regions, the coding sequence for functional proteins, also now known as the “exome”.

This is the first interview study exploring the perspectives of transplanted adolescents on decision‐making regarding transplantation, and it shows that they want to be part of decision‐making at different levels of involvement. ABSTRACT Background In pediatrics, the triadic relationships between the adolescent, parents, and healthcare providers, as ...
