An Organ‐on‐Chip Platform for Strain‐Controlled, Tissue‐Specific Compression of Cartilage and Mineralized Osteochondral Interface to Study Mechanical Overloading in Osteoarthritis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A mechanically active OsteoChondral Unit (OCU)‐on‐Chip platform mimicking the OCU's functional anatomy and the strain gradient across the osteochondral interface is presented. Upon compartment‐specific hyperphysiological compression, the model replicates mechanisms observed in osteoarthritis (OA) progression, such as calcium crystal accumulation ...

Distinct roles of transcription factors EGL-46 and DAF-19 in specifying the functionality of a polycystin-expressing sensory neuron necessary for C. elegans male vulva location behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Caenorhabditis elegans polycystins LOV-1 and PKD-2 are expressed in the male-specific HOB neuron, and are necessary for sensation of the hermaphrodite vulva during mating. We demonstrate that male vulva location behavior and expression of lov-1 and pkd-2

NPHP proteins are binding partners of nucleoporins at the base of the primary cilium.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Cilia are microtubule-based organelles that protrude from the surface of eukaryotic cells to generate motility and to sense and respond to environmental cues.

CXCL12 targets the primary cilium cAMP/cGMP ratio to regulate cell polarity during migration

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Directed cell migration requires sustained cell polarisation. In migrating cortical interneurons, nuclear movements are directed towards the centrosome that organises the primary cilium signalling hub.

Retinitis Pigmentosa GTPase Regulator (RPGR) protein isoforms in mammalian retina:insights into X-linked Retinitis Pigmentosa and associated ciliopathies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Mutations in the cilia-centrosomal protein Retinitis Pigmentosa GTPase Regulator (RPGR) are a frequent cause of retinal degeneration. The RPGR gene undergoes complex alternative splicing and encodes multiple protein isoforms. To elucidate the function of

Enteric neurons show a primary cilium [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, 2012
AbstractThe primary cilium is a non‐motile cilium whose structure is 9+0. It is involved in co‐ordinating cellular signal transduction pathways, developmental processes and tissue homeostasis. Defects in the structure or function of the primary cilium underlie numerous human diseases, collectively termed ciliopathies.

A High‐Throughput AngioPlate Platform with Integrated AngioTEER for Modeling and Monitoring Renal Proximal Tubule Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Renal tubular injury is a major contributor to kidney disease, yet remains poorly understood due to the lack of predictive models. This study presents a high‐throughput 3D renal proximal tubule model on the AngioPlate platform integrated with automated TEER measurements (AngioTEER), enabling real‐time monitoring of drug‐induced nephrotoxicity ...

Intelligent Eye Tracker Integrated with Cylindrical Capacitive Sensors for Chronic Fatigue Assessment

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
A wearable capacitive eye tracker for chronic fatigue assessment is presented, utilizing cylindrically shaped capacitive sensors made of a carbon nanotube‐paper composite. By integrating a novel fatigue‐induction protocol with machine learning, the device achieves 0.75‐sensitivity and 0.73‐specificity, providing a practical alternative to existing ...
