Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 4, July/August 2026.ABSTRACT Giardia lamblia, a protozoan parasite that causes diarrhea in humans, contains two centrins implicated in cellular morphology and cell division. To identify proteins interacting with each G. lamblia centrin (GlCent), we performed a yeast two‐hybrid assay.

Cep120 is asymmetrically localized to the daughter centriole and is essential for centriole assembly [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 2010 Centrioles form the core of the centrosome in animal cells and function as basal bodies that nucleate and anchor cilia at the plasma membrane. In this paper, we report that Cep120 (Ccdc100), a protein previously shown to be involved in maintaining the neural progenitor pool in mouse brain, is associated with centriole structure and function.

Aggregate, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.This review surveys eukaryotic cilia as putative quantum‐enabled sensory and regulatory centers. It highlights their multifaceted roles in the cell, focuses on the nontrivial roles of quantum mechanics in their membrane and cytoskeletal proteins, and introduces the essential building blocks enabling quantum properties to survive in the warm, wet, and ...

The crucial role of centrioles in tooth growth and development
Journal of the Formosan Medical AssociationBackground: Tooth development hinged on reciprocal interactions between enamel and dentin, shaping tooth structures. Centrioles influenced cellular direction, critical for stem cell differentiation.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 6, Page 1179-1191, June 2026.ABSTRACT The ciliopathies are a group of genetic disorders caused by defective function of either the primary cilia (a large number) or the motile cilia (a much smaller number). These have been defined as diseases with mutations in genes encoding individual ciliary or cilia‐associated proteins.

Cilia in Nervous System Development, Function, and Disease
MedComm – Future Medicine, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.Cilia are evolutionarily conserved organelles that function as essential sensory and motility platforms in the nervous system. This review outlines key cilia‐dependent signaling pathways and their roles in neural development and function. Furthermore, it highlights how ciliary dysfunction can lead to a variety of neurological disorders, known as ...

EMBO ReportsCentrioles are part of centrosomes and cilia, which are microtubule organising centres (MTOC) with diverse functions. Despite their stability, centrioles can disappear during differentiation, such as in oocytes, but little is known about the regulation ...

Roles of centrioles in neural attraction of dental pulp stem cells
Journal of the Formosan Medical AssociationBackground/Purpose: Human nerve development is vital, affecting trauma recovery and dental issues. Early embryonic clues link nerves to tooth development via factors like Wnt and Hedgehog pathways.

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 9, 14 May 2026.Monoclonal antibodies targeting the interdomain region of polo‐like kinase 1 (PLK1) were delivered into living HeLa cells by electroporation to directly modulate mitotic progression. This intracellular antibody approach provides a new tool to probe PLK1 function and highlights the potential of antibodies to regulate key mitotic regulators inside cells.
