Farnesylation of the Transducin G Protein Gamma Subunit Is a Prerequisite for Its Ciliary Targeting in Rod Photoreceptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
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.

A novel defined cuproptosis-related gene signature for predicting the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) has become the most prevalent histologic subset of primary lung cancer, and effective innovative prognostic models are needed to enhance the feasibility of targeted therapies for the disease.

Design and Fabrication of an Integrated Hollow Concave Cilium MEMS Cardiac Sound Sensor

open access: yesMicromachines, 2022
In light of a need for low-frequency, high sensitivity and broadband cardiac murmur signal detection, the present work puts forward an integrated MEMS-based heart sound sensor with a hollow concave ciliary micro-structure. The advantages of a hollow MEMS

Chronic Hypobaric Hypoxia Modulates Primary Cilia Differently in Adult and Fetal Ovine Kidneys

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
Hypoxic environments at high altitude have significant effects on kidney injury. Following injury, renal primary cilia display length alterations. Primary cilia are mechanosensory organelles that regulate tubular architecture.

Design and Implementation of a Composite Hydrophone of Sound Pressure and Sound Pressure Gradient

open access: yesMicromachines, 2021
The bionic cilium MEMS vector hydrophone has the characteristics of low power consumption, small volume, and good low-frequency response. Nevertheless, there exists the problem of left–right ambiguity in the azimuth estimation of a single hydrophone.

A role for Tctex-1 (DYNLT1) in controlling primary cilium length [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The microtubule motor complex cytoplasmic dynein is known to be involved in multiple processes including endomembrane organization and trafficking, mitosis, and microtubule organization.

Emerging Roles of Primary Cilia in Glioma

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
Primary cilia are microtubule-based organelles that are typically present on cells during the G0 or G1-S/G2 phases of the cell cycle. Recent studies of glioblastoma (GBM) biopsies, a brain tumor that is notorious for its aggressive growth and resistance ...

Ciliary Dyneins and Dynein Related Ciliopathies

open access: yesCells, 2021
Although ubiquitously present, the relevance of cilia for vertebrate development and health has long been underrated. However, the aberration or dysfunction of ciliary structures or components results in a large heterogeneous group of disorders in ...

The primary cilium influences interleukin-1 beta-induced NF kappa B signalling by regulating IKK activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The primary cilium is an organelle acting as a master regulator of cellular signalling. We have previously shown that disruption of primary cilia assembly, through targeting intraflagellar transport, is associated with muted nitric oxide and ...
