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.

Intraflagellar Transport and Cilium-Based Signaling [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2006
Cilia are specialized structures that not only play diverse roles in cell motility but also transmit signals to the cytoplasm and nucleus to control gene expression, cell function, animal development, and behavior. Cilia are assembled and maintained by the intraflagellar transport (IFT) machinery, which coordinates rapid, bidirectional transport ...

Untethered Magnetic Microswimmers for Targeted Particle Transport and Flow Manipulation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This work introduces magnetically actuated microswimmers to dynamically reconfigure fluid flow within a single microfluidic device. Multiple homogeneous microswimmers are independently controlled by an external magnetic field to perform translational and rotational motions, thereby inducing real‐time flow manipulation.

Analyticity results for the cumulants in a random matrix model

open access: yes, 2014
The generating function of the cumulants in random matrix models, as well as the cumulants themselves, can be expanded as asymptotic (divergent) series indexed by maps. While at fixed genus the sums over maps converge, the sums over genera do not.

Metachronal wave and hydrodynamic interaction for deterministic switching rowers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We employ a model system, called rowers, as a generic physical framework to define the problem of the coordinated motion of cilia (the metachronal wave) as a far from equilibrium process.

The Primary Cilium as a Complex Signaling Center [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2009
Respect for the primary cilium has undergone a remarkable renaissance over the past decade, and it is now thought to be an essential regulator of numerous signaling pathways. The primary cilium's functions range from the movement of cells and fluid, to sensory inputs involved with olfaction and photoreception.

Hard‐Magnetic Soft Millirobots in Underactuated Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review provides a comprehensive overview of hard‐magnetic soft millirobots in underactuated systems. It examines key advances in structural design, physics‐informed modeling, and control strategies, while highlighting the interplay among these domains.

Cilium height difference between strokes is more effective in driving fluid transport in mucociliary clearance: A numerical study

open access: yesMathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2015
Mucociliary clearance is the first line of defense in our airway. The purpose of this study is to identify and study key factors in the cilia motion that influence the transport ability of the mucociliary system.

Hedgehog Signaling and the Cilium: in the Zone [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Cell, 2012
Hedgehog signaling is transduced at the primary cilium, but the precise mechanisms underlying this action are not clear. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Dorn and colleagues (2012) describe a novel mechanism for control of Hedgehog signaling by Evc proteins within the primary cilium.
