Bardet–Biedl syndrome: beyond the cilium

Open access
Tobin, Jonathan L., Beales, Philip L.·2007·Pediatric Nephrology

Abstract

The Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a significant genetic cause of chronic and end-stage renal failure in children. Despite being a relatively rare recessive condition, BBS has come to prominence during the past few years owing to revelations of primary cilia dysfunction underlying pathogenesis. The study of this multi-system disorder, which includes obesity, cognitive impairment, genito-urinary tract malformations and limb deformities, is beginning to reveal insights into several aspects of mammalian development and organogenesis. Involvement of BBS proteins in disparate pathways such as the non-canonical Wnt and Sonic Hedgehog pathways is highlighting their interplay in disease pathogenesis. Here we review the recent developments in this emerging field, with the emphasis on the renal component of the syndrome and potential future directions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
