Cilium incarnatum externum [PDF]
A 25-year-old woman presented with a history of a cosmetically bothersome bulge over her left eyelid. She was diagnosed with cilium incarnatum externum. The subcutaneous cilium was surgically removed and examined.

A Cilium Is Not a Cilium Is Not a Cilium: Signaling Contributes to Ciliary Morphological Diversity [PDF]
Mukhopadhyay and colleagues reveal in this issue of Developmental Cell that signaling mediated by a specialized neuronal cilium in C. elegans affects its structure. The finding that this cilium is modified in response to the cues it transduces suggests that cilia may not be static antennae, but organelles whose functions are shaped by their signaling ...

Primary cilium and glioblastoma [PDF]
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 ...

The Primary Cilium and Neuronal Migration
The primary cilium (PC) is a microtubule-based tiny sensory organelle emanating from the centrosome and protruding from the surface of most eukaryotic cells, including neurons. The extremely severe phenotypes of ciliopathies have suggested their paramount importance for multiple developmental events, including brain formation.

Signaling through the Primary Cilium [PDF]
The presence of single, non-motile "primary" cilia on the surface of epithelial cells has been well described since the 1960s. However, for decades these organelles were believed to be vestigial, with no remaining function, having lost their motility.

Cilium and VDM -- Towards Formal Analysis of Cilium Policies
Industrial control systems are becoming more distributed and interconnected to allow for interaction with modern computing infrastructures. Furthermore, the amount of data generated by these systems is increasing due to integration of more sensors and the need to increase the reliability of the system based on predictive data models.

Role for the IFT-A Complex in Selective Transport to the Primary Cilium
Intraflagellar transport sub-complex A (IFT-A) is known to regulate retrograde IFT in the cilium. To rigorously assess its other possible roles, we knocked out an IFT-A subunit, IFT121/WDR35, in mammalian cells and screened the localization of more than ...

Deciphering vesicle-assisted transport mechanisms in cytoplasm to cilium trafficking [PDF]
The cilium, a pivotal organelle crucial for cell signaling and proper cell function, relies on meticulous macromolecular transport from the cytoplasm for its formation and maintenance.

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