Regulation of Primary Cilium Length by O-GlcNAc during Neuronal Development in a Human Neuron Model

Cells, 2023
The primary cilium plays critical roles in the homeostasis and development of neurons. Recent studies demonstrate that cilium length is regulated by the metabolic state of cells, as dictated by processes such as glucose flux and O-GlcNAcylation (OGN ...

Adenylate Cyclase Type III Is Not a Ubiquitous Marker for All Primary Cilia during Development. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Adenylate cyclase type III (AC3) is localized in plasma membrane of neuronal primary cilium and can be used as a marker of this cilium. AC3 has also been detected in some other primary cilia such as those of fibroblasts, synoviocytes or astrocytes ...

Strongly Truncated Dnaaf4 Plays a Conserved Role in Drosophila Ciliary Dynein Assembly as Part of an R2TP-Like Co-Chaperone Complex With Dnaaf6

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
Axonemal dynein motors are large multi-subunit complexes that drive ciliary movement. Cytoplasmic assembly of these motor complexes involves several co-chaperones, some of which are related to the R2TP co-chaperone complex.

Spectrum of Genetic Variants in a Cohort of 37 Laterality Defect Cases

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
Laterality defects are defined by the perturbed left–right arrangement of organs in the body, occurring in a syndromal or isolated fashion. In humans, primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a frequent underlying condition of defective left–right patterning,

Nonreciprocal interactions give rise to fast cilium synchronisation in finite systems [PDF]

Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 120, e2307279120 (2023), 2023
Motile cilia beat in an asymmetric fashion in order to propel the surrounding fluid. When many cilia are located on a surface, their beating can synchronise such that their phases form metachronal waves. Here, we computationally study a model where each cilium is represented as a spherical particle, moving along a tilted trajectory with a position ...

Primary cilium and glioblastoma [PDF]

Therapeutic Advances in Medical Oncology, 2018
Glioblastoma (GBM) represents the most common, malignant and lethal primary brain tumour in adults. The primary cilium is a highly conserved and dynamic organelle that protrudes from the apical surface of virtually every type of mammalian cell. There is increasing evidence that abnormal cilia are involved in cancer progression, since primary cilia ...

A Proximity Mapping Journey into the Biology of the Mammalian Centrosome/Cilium Complex

Cells, 2020
The mammalian centrosome/cilium complex is composed of the centrosome, the primary cilium and the centriolar satellites, which together regulate cell polarity, signaling, proliferation and motility in cells and thereby development and homeostasis in ...

Trafficking in and to the primary cilium [PDF]

Cilia, 2012
Abstract Polarized vesicle trafficking is mediated by small GTPase proteins, such as Rabs and Arls/Arfs. These proteins have essential roles in maintaining normal cellular function, in part, through regulating intracellular trafficking. Moreover, these families of proteins have recently been implicated in the formation and function of the ...

Dendritic cell proliferation by primary cilium in atopic dermatitis

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023
Introduction: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common allergic eczema that affects up to 10% of adults in developed countries. Immune cells in the epidermis, namely, Langerhans cells (LCs), contribute to the pathogenesis of AD, although their exact role(s) in

Ciliary chemosensitivity is enhanced by cilium geometry and motility

eLife, 2021
Cilia are hairlike organelles involved in both sensory functions and motility. We discuss the question of whether the location of chemical receptors on cilia provides an advantage in terms of sensitivity and whether motile sensory cilia have a further ...
