Evaluating gene variations in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease patients using whole exome sequencing and phenotype to genotype analysis [PDF]
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most prevalent hereditary kidney disorder. Between 85% and 90% of cases result from variations in the PKD1 and PKD2 genes.

A tissue-specific role for intraflagellar transport genes during craniofacial development. [PDF]
Primary cilia are nearly ubiquitous, cellular projections that function to transduce molecular signals during development. Loss of functional primary cilia has a particularly profound effect on the developing craniofacial complex, causing several ...
