Islet primary cilia motility controls insulin secretion [PDF]
, 2021 ABSTRACTPrimary cilia are specialized cell-surface organelles that mediate sensory perception and, in contrast to motile cilia and flagella, are thought to lack motility function. Here we show that primary cilia in pancreatic beta cells exhibit movement that is required for glucose-dependent insulin secretion.

Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...

The effect of Dnaaf5 gene dosage on primary ciliary dyskinesia phenotypes
JCI Insight, 2023 DNAAF5 is a dynein motor assembly factor associated with the autosomal heterogenic recessive condition of motile cilia, primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). The effects of allele heterozygosity on motile cilia function are unknown.

c21orf59/kurly Controls Both Cilia Motility and Polarization [PDF]
Cell Reports, 2016 Cilia are microtubule-based projections that function in the movement of extracellular fluid. This requires cilia to be: (1) motile and driven by dynein complexes and (2) correctly polarized on the surface of cells, which requires planar cell polarity (PCP). Few factors that regulate both processes have been discovered.

Recent Advances in Collective Behaviors of Micro/Nanomotor Swarms
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This review describes the driving forces behind collective motion, explores the self‐organization of micro/nano swarms across zero‐dimensional (0D), one‐dimensional (1D), two‐dimensional (2D), and three‐dimensional (3D) spaces, and highlights their potential in drug delivery, environmental monitoring, and smart devices.

Exploring the role of fallopian ciliated cells in the pathogenesis of high-grade serous ovarian cancer [PDF]
, 2018 High-grade serous epithelial ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is the fifth leading cause of cancer death in women and the first among gynecological malignancies. Despite an initial response to standard chemotherapy, most HGSOC patients relapse.
