Impact of Motile Ciliopathies on Human Development and Clinical Consequences in the Newborn

open access: yesCells, 2021
Motile cilia are hairlike organelles that project outward from a tissue-restricted subset of cells to direct fluid flow. During human development motile cilia guide determination of the left-right axis in the embryo, and in the fetal and neonatal periods

Airway ciliated cells in adult lung homeostasis and COPD

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2023
Cilia are organelles emanating from the cell surface, consisting of an axoneme of microtubules that extends from a basal body derived from the centrioles. They are either isolated and nonmotile (primary cilia), or grouped and motile (motile cilia). Cilia

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.

Mucociliary Wnt signaling promotes cilia biogenesis and beating

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Motile cilia are thought of as signaling-inert nanomotors. Here, the authors show that motile cilia transduce a Wnt-protein phosphatase 1 signal that regulates cilia biogenesis and ciliary beating in Xenopus embryos and in human airway epithelia.

Rethinking the cilia hypothesis of hydrocephalus

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2022
Dysfunction of motile cilia in ependymal cells has been proposed to be a pathogenic cause of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) overaccumulation leading to ventricular expansion in hydrocephalus, primarily based on observations of enlarged ventricles in mouse ...

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 ...
