Cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are central elements of the microenvironment that control tumor development. In breast cancer, CAFs can originate from adipose progenitors (APs).

Ciliary motility is powered by a suite of highly conserved axoneme-specific dynein motor complexes. In humans, the impairment of these motors through mutation results in the disease primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD).

Interleukin-1β sequesters hypoxia inducible factor 2α to the primary cilium. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The primary cilium coordinates signalling in development, health and disease. Previously we have shown that the cilium is essential for the anabolic response to loading and the inflammatory response to interleukin-1β (IL-1β).

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.

Gli2a protein localization reveals a role for Iguana/DZIP1 in primary ciliogenesis and a dependence of Hedgehog signal transduction on primary cilia in the zebrafish [PDF]
Background: In mammalian cells, the integrity of the primary cilium is critical for proper regulation of the Hedgehog (Hh) signal transduction pathway.

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 ...

Cancer whose major problems are metastasis, treatment resistance, and recurrence is the leading cause of death worldwide. Tumor-initiating stem cells (TiSCs) are a subset of the tumor population responsible for tumor resistance and relapse. Understanding

The IDA3 adapter, required for intraflagellar transport of I1 dynein, is regulated by ciliary length [PDF]
Axonemal dyneins, including inner dynein arm I1, assemble in the cytoplasm prior to transport into cilia by intraflagellar transport (IFT). How I1 dynein interacts with IFT is not understood.

Assembling a primary cilium [PDF]
Cilia are evolutionarily conserved, membrane-bound, microtubular projections emanating from the cell surface. They are assembled on virtually all cell types in the human body, with very few exceptions, and several recent reviews have covered the topic in great detail.
