Bardet Biedl Syndrome Report
Bardet Biedl Syndrome
Bardet Biedl Syndrome is a rare genetic disease belonging to the group of ciliopathies, pathological conditions affecting the ciliary apparatus of cells. Hair cells are found in numerous body districts such as the eyes and kidneys, where they function as sensory receptors or elements of intercellular communication, respectively. In other cases, cilia are required for cell movement. Genetic mutations affecting the eyelashes involve, in Bardet Biedl Syndrome, serious alterations of cellular signaling during development, involving the impairment of sensory functions.
