Signaling through the Primary Cilium [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2018 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.

The miR‐669a‐5p/G3BP/HDAC6/AKAP12 Axis Regulates Primary Cilia Length
Advanced SciencePrimary cilia are conserved organelles in most mammalian cells, acting as “antennae” to sense external signals. Maintaining a physiological cilium length is required for cilium function.

The photoreceptor cilium and its diseases [PDF]
Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 2019 Light sensation occurs in photoreceptor outer segments (OS), which derive from highly specialized primary cilia, based on structural and molecular similarities. Ciliary dysfunction causes ciliopathies, in which retinal degeneration is common. The connecting cilium (CC) is the obligate passage for proteins moving between ciliary and cellular compartment,

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