- Cranioectodermal dysplasia (CED) is a rare autosomal recessive ciliopathy characterized by craniofacial, skeletal, and ectodermal anomalies. Significant phenotypic heterogeneity often results in clinical overlap with other skeletal dysplasias, including Robinow syndrome. In consanguineous populations, the presence of multiple rare variants can further complicate the molecular diagnosis. This study aimed to clarify the genetic basis of a complex syndromic presentation in a consanguineous Saudi family exhibiting features suggestive of both disorders using an integrated phenotypic, genomic, and computational approach. - Source: PubMed
Aljeaid DeemaAlmadiny AbdulrahmanNasser Khalidah KAlmutadares MahmoudIssa Noha M - Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are mainstay therapies for diabetes and obesity, acting in part by enhancing glucose-dependent insulin secretion. While the primary cilium is a known signaling compartment for certain G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), its role in the β-cell response to incretins remains undefined. Here, we show that primary cilia are essential for full GLP-1R signaling. Loss of β-cell cilia in mouse and human islets severely impaired GLP-1-potentiated insulin secretion, an effect preceded by blunted whole-cell cAMP and Ca responses. Immunofluorescence and immunogold scanning electron microscopy revealed endogenous GLP-1R localized to the primary cilium. Adenylyl cyclase immunostaining was also enriched within cilia, and targeted inhibition of ciliary PKA reduced insulin secretion. Critically, disrupting ciliary GPCR trafficking via Tulp3 knockdown - while preserving cilia structure - recapitulated the signaling and secretory deficits, demonstrating a specific requirement for the ciliary receptor pool. These findings establish the primary cilium as a non-redundant signaling compartment for GLP-1R and uncover a new layer of subcellular organization in incretin action in β cells. - Source: PubMed
