Alteration of primary cilia and intraflagellar transport 20 (IFT20) expression in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cell lines [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ
Background Aberrations in primary cilia expression and intraflagellar transport (IFT) protein function have been implicated in tumourigenesis.

Ccdc11 is a novel centriolar satellite protein essential for ciliogenesis and establishment of left-right asymmetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The establishment of left–right (L-R) asymmetry in vertebrates is dependent on the sensory and motile functions of cilia during embryogenesis. Mutations in CCDC11 disrupt L-R asymmetry and cause congenital heart disease in humans, yet the molecular and ...

Primary Cilia: Putting Sensors Together [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2004
Primary cilia extend like antennae from the surface of most eukaryotic cells into the environment, where they function in a variety of sensory roles. Recent studies reveal an intimate interplay between structural proteins of the centrosome and the formation of primary cilia, and provide new insight into the complex function of these fascinating ...

Renal epithelial cells retain primary cilia during human acute renal allograft rejection injury

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2019
Objectives Primary cilia are sensory organelles which co-ordinate several developmental/repair pathways including hedgehog signalling. Studies of human renal allografts suffering acute tubular necrosis have shown that length of primary cilia borne by ...

Shortened primary cilium length and dysregulated Sonic hedgehog signaling in Niemann-Pick C1 disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The Niemann-Pick type C1 (NPC1) disease is a neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorder due to mutations in the NPC1 gene, encoding a transmembrane protein related to the Sonic hedgehog receptor, Patched, and involved in intracellular trafficking of ...

Autophagy and primary cilia: dual interplay [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 2016
Primary cilia are microtubule-based organelles for sensing of the extracellular milieu and transducing this information into the cell through a variety of molecular signaling pathways. Functioning of the primary cilium has been recently connected to autophagy, a pathway for degradation of cellular components in lysosomes. Autophagy regulates the length

Tau tubulin kinase 1 and 2 regulate ciliogenesis and human pluripotent stem cells–derived neural rosettes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Primary cilia are key regulators of embryo development and tissue homeostasis. However, their mechanisms and functions, particularly in the context of human cells, are still unclear.

Mechanical Properties of Isolated Primary Cilia Measured by Micro-tensile Test and Atomic Force Microscopy

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Mechanotransduction is a well-known mechanism by which cells sense their surrounding mechanical environment, convert mechanical stimuli into biochemical signals, and eventually change their morphology and functions.

NDP Kinase Moves into Developing Primary Cilia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Inmunofluorescence staining of murine NIH3T3 fibroblasts grown at high density shows that conventional nucleoside diphosphate (NDP) kinases A and B localize to a sensory organelle, the primary cilium.
