Summary: The overall short-term goals of this project include the following: 1) identify the genes that are key to the function of respiratory cilia to protect the normal lung; and 2) the effects of genetic mutations that adversely affect ciliary function and cause primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), which results in life-shortening lung disease. The long-term goal of this project is to develop better unders...
Summary: Primary Ciliary Dyskinesias (PCD) are rare, autosomal recessive respiratory diseases, due to a defect in mucociliary clearance linked to abnormalities in the structure and/or function of the cilia. The variety of ciliary abnormalities identified reflects the genetic heterogeneity of PCDs. The thirty or so genes currently implicated explain the pathology in about half of the patients. PCDs are char...
