Contribution of growth differentiation factor 6-dependent cell survival to early-onset retinal dystrophies

open access: yes, 2013
Retinal dystrophies are predominantly caused by mutations affecting the visual phototransduction system and cilia, with few genes identified that function to maintain photoreceptor survival.

Implementation of First‐Line Rapid Genome Sequencing for Children in Pediatric and Cardiac Intensive Care Units

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 6, Page 1326-1336, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Substantial data supports the use of rapid exome and genome sequencing (rES/rGS) in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU), but fewer studies have examined the impact of rES/rGS in other pediatric critical care units. We evaluated the impact on diagnostic yield and time to diagnosis following a single‐center hospital policy change allowing ...

Unveiling a New Link: Cholesterol Deficiency in Smith–Lemli–Opitz and Niemann–Pick C as a Driver of Ciliopathies

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 6, Page 1179-1191, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The ciliopathies are a group of genetic disorders caused by defective function of either the primary cilia (a large number) or the motile cilia (a much smaller number). These have been defined as diseases with mutations in genes encoding individual ciliary or cilia‐associated proteins.

Prenatal Diagnosis of Short Rib‐Polydactyly Syndrome (SRPS), DYNC2I1‐Related: Identification of a Novel Homozygous Missense Variant by Clinical Exome Sequencing

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Short rib‐polydactyly syndrome (SRPS), with or without polydactyly, encompasses a range of autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasias characterized by shortened limbs, narrow thorax, and visceral abnormalities. Accurate genetic testing is crucial for the diagnosis and treatment of different clinical subtypes. This study investigates gene variants

Crosstalk between endoplasmic reticulum stress and mitochondrial homeostasis: A new perspective on ophthalmic disease treatment

open access: yesJournal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 20, Issue 2, June 2026.
The graphical abstract follows a top‐to‐bottom flow: stressors → ER–mitochondria crosstalk → ophthalmic diseases. The central panel highlights three core mitochondria‐associated membrane function axes, color‐coded as follows: light yellow for Ca2+ homeostasis, light blue for mitochondrial dynamics, and light red for mitophagy.

Cilia in Nervous System Development, Function, and Disease

open access: yesMedComm – Future Medicine, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Cilia are evolutionarily conserved organelles that function as essential sensory and motility platforms in the nervous system. This review outlines key cilia‐dependent signaling pathways and their roles in neural development and function. Furthermore, it highlights how ciliary dysfunction can lead to a variety of neurological disorders, known as ...

Guiding Lights in Genome Editing for Inherited Retinal Disorders: Implications for Gene and Cell Therapy

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2018
Inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs) are a leading cause of visual impairment in the developing world. These conditions present an irreversible dysfunction or loss of neural retinal cells, which significantly impacts quality of life.
