Ciliopathies, a group of genetic disorders, are caused by defects in the structure or function of cilia, tiny hair-like organelles found on nearly all cells in the body. These cilia act as sensory and signaling hubs, playing critical roles in development, tissue maintenance and physiological processes. When they malfunction, they disrupt cellular signaling and transport, leading to widespread effects across multiple organ systems.
