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

open access: yesBiology 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.

A role for Tctex-1 (DYNLT1) in controlling primary cilium length [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The microtubule motor complex cytoplasmic dynein is known to be involved in multiple processes including endomembrane organization and trafficking, mitosis, and microtubule organization.

Odontoblast differentiation is regulated by an interplay between primary cilia and the canonical Wnt pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Primary cilium is a protruding cellular organelle that has various physiological functions, especially in sensory reception. While an avalanche of reports on primary cilia have been published, the function of primary cilia in dental cells remains to be ...

Energetics of synchronisation for model flagella and cilia [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. E 103, 042419 (2021), 2021
Synchronisation is often observed in the swimming of flagellated cells, either for multiple appendages on the same organism or between the flagella of nearby cells. Beating cilia are also seen to synchronise their dynamics. In 1951, Taylor showed that the observed in-phase beating of the flagella of co-swimming spermatozoa was consistent with ...

Hedgehog Pathway Activation Alters Ciliary Signaling in Primary Hypothalamic Cultures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Primary cilia dysfunction has been associated with hyperphagia and obesity in both ciliopathy patients and mouse models of cilia perturbation. Neurons throughout the brain possess these solitary cellular appendages, including in the feeding centers of ...

HDAC6 Signaling at Primary Cilia Promotes Proliferation and Restricts Differentiation of Glioma Cells

open access: yesCancers, 2021
Simple Summary Glioblastoma is the most common and lethal brain tumor in adults because it becomes resistant to virtually every treatment. Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6), which is located primarily in the cytoplasm, has a unique role in promoting the ...

Primary Cilium Identifies a Quiescent Cell Population in the Human Intestinal Crypt

open access: yesCells, 2023
Primary cilia are sensory antennae located at the cell surface which mediate a variety of extracellular signals involved in development, tissue homeostasis, stem cells and cancer.

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

open access: yes, 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).

Ionizing radiation promotes primary ciliogenesis in glioblastoma cells

open access: yesFushe yanjiu yu fushe gongyi xuebao, 2021
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of ionizing radiation (IR) on ciliogenesis of human glioblastoma cells. The glioblastoma cell lines M059K and M059J were exposed to X-ray or carbon ion at different doses, and the incidence and length ...

Evaluating efficiency and robustness in cilia design [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. E 93, 033119 (2016), 2015
Motile cilia are used by many eukaryotic cells to transport flow. Cilia-driven flows are important to many physiological functions, yet a deep understanding of the interplay between the mechanical structure of cilia and their physiological functions in healthy and diseased conditions remains elusive.
