Flow induced by beating artificial cilia: An experimental and numerical study

open access: green, 2011
Artificial cilia-driven fluid transport in microfluidic devices is a newly emerging research topic that came into focus during the last five years. Artificial cilia can be described as wall-attached elongated structures that perform an externally actuated periodic beat cycle to manipulate fluids on sub-millimeter scale. The periodic motion of the cilia

Chloride channels regulate differentiation and barrier functions of the mammalian airway. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The conducting airway forms a protective mucosal barrier and is the primary target of airway disorders. The molecular events required for the formation and function of the airway mucosal barrier, as well as the mechanisms by which barrier dysfunction ...

Primary cilia elongation in response to interleukin-1 mediates the inflammatory response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Primary cilia are singular, cytoskeletal organelles present in the majority of mammalian cell types where they function as coordinating centres for mechanotransduction, Wnt and hedgehog signalling. The length of the primary cilium is proposed to modulate

Stimulation of electro-olfactogram responses in the main olfactory epithelia by airflow depends on the type 3 adenylyl cyclase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Cilia of olfactory sensory neurons are the primary sensory organelles for olfaction. The detection of odorants by the main olfactory epithelium (MOE) depends on coupling of odorant receptors to the type 3 adenylyl cyclase (AC3) in olfactory cilia.

Mixing and transport by ciliary carpets: a numerical study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We use a 3D computational model to study the fluid transport and mixing due to the beating of an infinite array of cilia. In accord with recent experiments, we observe two distinct regions: a fluid transport region above the cilia and a fluid mixing ...

Probing cilia-driven flow in living embryos using femtosecond laser ablation and fast imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Embryonic development strictly depends on fluid dynamics. As a consequence, understanding biological fluid dynamic is essential since it is unclear how flow affects development.

Basal body stability and ciliogenesis requires the conserved component Poc1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Centrioles are the foundation for centrosome and cilia formation. The biogenesis of centrioles is initiated by an assembly mechanism that first synthesizes the ninefold symmetrical cartwheel and subsequently leads to a stable cylindrical microtubule ...

Microfluidic pumping using artificial magnetic cilia

open access: yes, 2018
One of the vital functions of naturally occurring cilia is fluid transport. Biological cilia use spatially asymmetric strokes to generate a net fluid flow that can be utilized for feeding, swimming, and other functions.
