Diverged morphology changes of astrocytic and neuronal primary cilia under reactive insults

Molecular Brain, 2020
Primary cilia are centriole-derived sensory organelles that are present in most mammalian cells, including astrocytes and neurons. Evidence is emerging that astrocyte and neuronal primary cilia demonstrate a dichotomy in the mature mouse brain.

Primary Cilia Dysfunction in Neurodevelopmental Disorders beyond Ciliopathies

Journal of Developmental Biology, 2022
Primary cilia are specialized, microtubule-based structures projecting from the surface of most mammalian cells. These organelles are thought to primarily act as signaling hubs and sensors, receiving and integrating extracellular cues.

Rediscovering Primary Cilia in Pancreatic Islets [PDF]

Diabetes & Metabolism Journal, 2023
Primary cilia are microtubule-based sensory and signaling organelles on the surfaces of most eukaryotic cells. Despite their early description by microscopy studies, islet cilia had not been examined in the functional context until recent decades.

Primary cilia: a novel research approach to overcome anticancer drug resistance

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023
Primary cilia are cellular organelles that consist of a microtubule skeleton surrounded by a membrane filled with cell signaling receptors. Many studies have shown that primary cilia are cellular antennas, which serve as signaling hubs and their assembly

Interleukin-1β sequesters hypoxia inducible factor 2α to the primary cilium. [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: The primary cilium coordinates signalling in development, health and disease. Previously we have shown that the cilium is essential for the anabolic response to loading and the inflammatory response to interleukin-1β (IL-1β).

Depletion of chondrocyte primary cilia reduces the compressive modulus of articular cartilage [PDF]

, 2014
Primary cilia are slender, microtubule based structures found in the majority of cell types with one cilium per cell. In articular cartilage, primary cilia are required for chondrocyte mechanotransduction and the development of healthy tissue.

Heat shock induces rapid resorption of primary cilia [PDF]

, 2012
Primary cilia are involved in important developmental and disease pathways, such as the regulation of neurogenesis and tumorigenesis. They function as sensory antennae and are essential in the regulation of key extracellular signalling systems.

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

Frontiers 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).

INPP5E and Coordination of Signaling Networks in Cilia

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Primary cilia are ubiquitous mechanosensory organelles that specifically coordinate a series of cellular signal transduction pathways to control cellular physiological processes during development and in tissue homeostasis.

Targeting of vasoactive intestinal peptide receptor 2, VPAC2, a secretin family G-protein coupled receptor, to primary cilia

Biology Open, 2013
Summary Primary cilia protrude from the cell surface of many cell types in the human body and function as cellular antennae via ciliary membrane localized receptors.
