A Ciliary View of the Immunological Synapse
The primary cilium has gone from being a vestigial organelle to a crucial signaling hub of growing interest given the association between a group of human disorders, collectively known as ciliopathies, and defects in its structure or function.

A boundary element regularised Stokeslet method applied to cilia and flagella-driven flow [PDF]
A boundary element implementation of the regularised Stokeslet method of Cortez is applied to cilia and flagella-driven flows in biology. Previously-published approaches implicitly combine the force discretisation and the numerical quadrature used to ...

Microfluidic pumping using artificial magnetic cilia
One of the vital functions of naturally occurring cilia is fluid transport. Biological cilia use spatially asymmetric strokes to generate a net fluid flow that can be utilized for feeding, swimming, and other functions.

Retinal gene therapy with a large MYO7A cDNA using adeno-associated virus. [PDF]
Usher 1 patients are born profoundly deaf and then develop retinal degeneration. Thus they are readily identified before the onset of retinal degeneration, making gene therapy a viable strategy to prevent their blindness.

Primary Cilium in Cancer Hallmarks [PDF]
The primary cilium is a solitary, nonmotile and transitory appendage that is present in virtually all mammalian cells. Our knowledge of its ultrastructure and function is the result of more than fifty years of research that has dramatically changed our perspectives on the primary cilium.

Drive, filter, and stick: A protein sorting conspiracy in photoreceptors. [PDF]
The sorting of proteins into different functional compartments is a fundamental cellular task. In this issue, Maza et al. (2019. J. Cell Biol https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201906024) demonstrate that distinct protein populations are dynamically generated ...

Ccdc11 is a novel centriolar satellite protein essential for ciliogenesis and establishment of left-right asymmetry [PDF]
The establishment of left–right (L-R) asymmetry in vertebrates is dependent on the sensory and motile functions of cilia during embryogenesis. Mutations in CCDC11 disrupt L-R asymmetry and cause congenital heart disease in humans, yet the molecular and ...

Dynamic scaffolds for neuronal signaling: in silico analysis of the TANC protein family [PDF]
The emergence of genes implicated across multiple comorbid neurologic disorders allows to identify shared underlying molecular pathways. Recently, investigation of patients with diverse neurologic disorders found TANC1 and TANC2 as possible candidate ...

Objectives Evaluate the efficacy and safety of baricitinib in paediatric patients with active JIA‐U or chronic anterior ANA‐positive uveitis, who had an inadequate response to MTX or bDMARDs. Methods JUVE‐BRIGHT was an open‐label, active‐controlled, Phase‐3 multicentre trial which utilized a novel design, including 1:1 randomization to an active ...
