Highly motile nanoscale magnetic artificial cilia [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2021
Significance Cilia are hair-like microscopic structures present abundantly in our body and producing motions at the smallest scales. They perform a wide range of critical functions and are crucial for the normal functioning of our body.

IFT74 variants cause skeletal ciliopathy and motile cilia defects in mice and humans.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2023
Motile and non-motile cilia play critical roles in mammalian development and health. These organelles are composed of a 1000 or more unique proteins, but their assembly depends entirely on proteins synthesized in the cell body and transported into the ...

The highly conserved FOXJ1 target CFAP161 is dispensable for motile ciliary function in mouse and Xenopus

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Cilia are protrusions of the cell surface and composed of hundreds of proteins many of which are evolutionary and functionally well conserved. In cells assembling motile cilia the expression of numerous ciliary components is under the control of the ...

The regulatory roles of motile cilia in CSF circulation and hydrocephalus

open access: yesFluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2021
Background Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is an ultra-filtrated colorless brain fluid that circulates within brain spaces like the ventricular cavities, subarachnoid space, and the spine.

SnapShot: Motile Cilia

open access: yesCell, 2015
Motile cilia are hair-like organelles that protrude from the cell surface and are conserved throughout eukaryotes. Motile cilia beat rhythmically and function in cellular and organismal locomotion and in driving fluid transport over epithelia. In vertebrates, their roles are varied, and their dysfunction in humans is associated with disease.

Evolutionarily ancient association of the FoxJ1 transcription factor with the motile ciliogenic program.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2012
It is generally believed that the last eukaryotic common ancestor (LECA) was a unicellular organism with motile cilia. In the vertebrates, the winged-helix transcription factor FoxJ1 functions as the master regulator of motile cilia biogenesis.

Purification and Immunostaining of Mouse Ependymal Ciliary Shafts

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2022
Cilia and flagella are microtubule-based hair-like organelles protruding from the surface of most eukaryotic cells, and play essential roles in cell locomotion, left-right asymmetry, embryo development, and tissue homeostasis.

Mutation of Growth Arrest Specific 8 Reveals a Role in Motile Cilia Function and Human Disease. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2016
Ciliopathies are genetic disorders arising from dysfunction of microtubule-based cellular appendages called cilia. Different cilia types possess distinct stereotypic microtubule doublet arrangements with non-motile or 'primary' cilia having a 9+0 and ...

A Flow Cytometry-Based Approach for the Isolation and Characterization of Neural Stem Cell Primary Cilia

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
In the adult mammalian brain, the apical surface of the subependymal zone (SEZ) is covered by many motile ependymal cilia and a few primary cilia originating from rare intermingled neural stem cells (NSCs).
