SDCCAG8-related ciliopathy

SDCCAG8-related ciliopathy is a condition caused by changes in the SDCCAG8 gene. It is classified as a ciliopathy because it affects cilia, the small hair-like structures on cells that play important roles in many body functions. Some people with this condition have been diagnosed with disorders such as Bardet-Biedl syndrome 16 or Senior-Loken syndrome 7. Research about this condition is still evolving. The understanding of its full range of effects and how it may impact different body systems continues to develop as more scientific studies are conducted.

Information about symptoms is currently limited for this condition.

This condition is caused by variants in the SDCCAG8 gene. Changes in this gene can affect the normal function of cilia in cells. Because cilia are important for various cellular processes, alterations in their function may lead to the clinical features observed in people with this condition.
