The photoreceptor cilium and its diseases [PDF]
Light sensation occurs in photoreceptor outer segments (OS), which derive from highly specialized primary cilia, based on structural and molecular similarities. Ciliary dysfunction causes ciliopathies, in which retinal degeneration is common. The connecting cilium (CC) is the obligate passage for proteins moving between ciliary and cellular compartment,

The centrosomal deubiquitylase USP21 regulates Gli1 transcriptional activity and stability [PDF]
USP21 is a centrosome-associated deubiquitylase (DUB) that has been implicated in the formation of primary cilia - crucial organelles for the regulation of the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway in vertebrates. Here, we identify KCTD6 - a cullin-3 E3-ligase

Enteric neurons show a primary cilium [PDF]
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.

Toward Wireless Implantable Robotic Systems Driven by Magnetic Field for Personalized Therapy
Robotic materials are playing an increasingly vital role in enabling sensing and actuation at small scales. This perspective highlights recent advances in magnetic materials and magnetically actuated devices for wireless sensing, actuation, and energy harvesting toward implantable robotic systems for closed‐loop therapy.

The double scaling limit of random tensor models
Tensor models generalize matrix models and generate colored triangulations of pseudo-manifolds in dimensions $D\geq 3$. The free energies of some models have been recently shown to admit a double scaling limit, i.e.

The Many Hats of Sonic Hedgehog Signaling in Nervous System Development and Disease. [PDF]
Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling occurs concurrently with the many processes that constitute nervous system development. Although Shh is mostly known for its proliferative and morphogenic action through its effects on neural stem cells and progenitors, it ...

Primary cilia are microtubule-based organelles, which protrude from the plasma membrane and receive a wide range of extracellular signals. Various cilia use G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) for the detection of these signals.
