Summary

The aim of the study is to characterize the clinical manifestations of ALMS within the ciliopathies to prevent complications and determine preventive and therapeutic targets.

The investigators believe that the clinical consequences of mutations in the gene result ALMS1 unprecedented protests and the ALMS study should help to be informed, not only about the understanding and decision support other ciliopathies, but also about some common diseases, as some physiopathogenic roads could be common; the rare disease being exacerbated a model of the channel concerned. Secondarily, the clinical data generated by this project will also be used as part of basic research (eg comparison with results in animal models, use of human cells for in vitro studies or transcriptomic ....) (which will be a secondary upgrading to this work).
