Cilia at the node of mouse embryos sense fluid flow for left-right determination via Pkd2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Unidirectional fluid flow plays an essential role in the breaking of left-right (L-R) symmetry in mouse embryos, but it has remained unclear how the flow is sensed by the embryo.

Research progress on the distribution of primary cilia and related signaling pathways involved in odontogenesis

open access: yes口腔疾病防治, 2020
Primary cilia are organelles present on most mammalian cells that sense environmental changes and transduce signaling, and they are the key coordinators of various signaling pathways during tissue development.

Combined exome and whole-genome sequencing identifies mutations in ARMC4 as a cause of primary ciliary dyskinesia with defects in the outer dynein arm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare, genetically heterogeneous ciliopathy disorder affecting cilia and sperm motility. A range of ultrastructural defects of the axoneme underlie the disease, which is characterised by chronic respiratory symptoms ...

Primary Cilia in Glial Cells: An Oasis in the Journey to Overcoming Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Many neurodegenerative diseases have been associated with defects in primary cilia, which are cellular organelles involved in diverse cellular processes and homeostasis.

Mutations in DYNC2LI1 disrupt cilia function and cause short rib polydactyly syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The short rib polydactyly syndromes (SRPSs) are a heterogeneous group of autosomal recessive, perinatal lethal skeletal disorders characterized primarily by short, horizontal ribs, short limbs and polydactyly.

Primary cilia are lost in preinvasive and invasive prostate cancer. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Prostate cancer is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer in men worldwide. Little is known about the role of primary cilia in preinvasive and invasive prostate cancer.

Primary cilia are specialized calcium signaling organelles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Summary Primary cilia are solitary nonmotile extensions of the centriole found on nearly all nucleated eukaryotic cells between cell divisions. Only ∼200-300 nm in diameter and a few microns long, they are separated from the cytoplasm by the ciliary neck

Tubulin glycylation controls primary cilia length [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2017
As essential components of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton, microtubules fulfill a variety of functions that can be temporally and spatially controlled by tubulin posttranslational modifications. Tubulin glycylation has so far been mostly found on motile cilia and flagella, where it is involved in the stabilization of the axoneme.

Uni-directional ciliary membrane protein trafficking by a cytoplasmic retrograde IFT motor and ciliary ectosome shedding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The role of the primary cilium in key signaling pathways depends on dynamic regulation of ciliary membrane protein composition, yet we know little about the motors or membrane events that regulate ciliary membrane protein trafficking in existing ...
