Normally, cilia beat 7 to 22 times per second, and any impairment can result in poor mucociliary clearance, with subsequent upper and lower respiratory infection. Cilia also are involved in other biological processes (such as nitric oxide production), currently the subject of dozens of research efforts. Zobacz więcej Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare, autosomal recessive genetic ciliopathy, that causes defects in the action of cilia lining the upper and lower respiratory tract, sinuses, Eustachian tube, middle ear, Fallopian tube, … Zobacz więcej This condition is genetically inherited. Structures that make up the cilia, including inner and/or outer dynein arms, central apparatus, radial spokes, etc. are missing or dysfunctional and thus the axoneme structure lacks the ability to move. Axonemes are … Zobacz więcej There are no standardized effective treatment strategies for the condition. Current therapies for PCD are extrapolated … Zobacz więcej Around 80% of people with primary ciliary dyskinesia experience respiratory problems beginning within a day of birth. Many have a collapsed lobe of the lung and blood oxygen low enough to require treatment with supplemental oxygen. Within the first … Zobacz więcej PCD is a genetically heterogeneous disorder affecting motile cilia which are made up of approximately 250 proteins. Around 90% of individuals with PCD have ultrastructural defects affecting protein(s) in the outer and/or inner dynein arms, which give cilia their … Zobacz więcej Several diagnostic tests for this condition have been proposed. These include nasal nitric oxide levels as a screening test, light microscopy of … Zobacz więcej There is no reliable estimate of life expectancy for people with PCD. However, there is evidence that PCD, is a life altering life shortening multi-system condition, with some people progressing to lung transplant.
