Microtubules in Signaling01:22

Microtubules in Signaling

The primary cilium, made up of microtubules, acts as antennae on the cell surfaces for relaying external stimuli into the cells. These fine hair-like structures are present, generally one per cell. These are non-motile cilia in a 9+0 microtubules arrangement, where the central pair of microtubules are absent. The primary cilia arise from the basal body embedded in the cell membrane. Intraflagellar transport (IFT) carries requisite proteins from the cytoplasm to the cilium because the primary...

Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) is a genetic disorder causing facial tumors, seizures, and developmental issues due to mutations in chromosomes 9 or 16. Early diagnosis and understanding of TSC

Area of Science:

  • Genetics and rare diseases
  • Neurology and developmental disorders

Background:

  • Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) initially misclassified, now recognized as a distinct genetic disorder.
  • TSC is characterized by the development of benign tumors in multiple organs.
  • Genetic basis involves mutations in TSC1 or TSC2 genes on chromosomes 9 and 16.

Observation:

  • Patients commonly exhibit facial angiofibromas (adenomas), epilepsy, and cognitive impairments.
  • The case report details unique clinical manifestations of TSC.
  • Genetic mutations affect cell growth and differentiation pathways.

Findings:

  • Confirms TSC as a distinct genetic disorder with specific phenotypic presentations.
  • Highlights the etiological link to chromosomal mutations affecting cell regulation.
