Wei et al. establish a hair cell‐specific conditional knockout mouse model (Atp6v1b2fl/fl;Atoh1Cre/+), and demonstrate the importance of Atp6v1b2 for hair cell through maintaining the survival of lysosomes. A single administration of AAV‐ie‐Eh3‐mAtp6v1b2 through scala media at P0‐P2 realizes function compensation and restores hearing and balance ...

Spontaneous creation of macroscopic flow and metachronal waves in an array of cilia [PDF]
Cells or bacteria carrying cilia on their surface show many striking features : alignment of cilia in an array, two-phase asymmetric beating for each cilium, coordination between cilia and existence of metachronal waves with a constant phase difference between two adjacent cilia.

Internal friction controls active ciliary oscillations near the instability threshold [PDF]
Ciliary oscillations driven by molecular motors cause fluid motion at micron scale. Stable oscillations require a substantial source of dissipation to balance the energy input of motors. Conventionally, it stems from external fluid. We show, in contrast, that external fluid friction is negligible compared to internal elastic stress through a ...

Atrioventricular canal defect and genetic syndromes: the unifying role of sonic hedgehog [PDF]
The atrioventricular canal defect (AVCD) is a congenital heart defect (CHD) frequently associated with extracardiac anomalies (75%). Previous observations from a personal series of patients with AVCD and "polydactyly syndromes" showed that the distinct ...

Ontogenetic shifts in olfactory rosette morphology of the sockeye salmon, Oncorhynchus nerka
Scanning electron microscope images of sockeye salmon olfactory rosette. Olfactory rosette size linearly increases with lamellae number throughout ontogeny. The complexity of the rosette, including the distribution of sensory and nonsensory epithelia, and the appearance of secondary lamellar folding, varies between fry and adult life stages.

TGF-β Signaling Is Associated with Endocytosis at the Pocket Region of the Primary Cilium
Transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signaling is regulated by clathrin-dependent endocytosis (CDE) for the control of cellular processes during development and in tissue homeostasis.

The Vertebrate Primary Cilium in Development, Homeostasis, and Disease [PDF]
Cilia are complex structures that have garnered interest because of their roles in vertebrate development and their involvement in human genetic disorders. In contrast to multicellular invertebrates in which cilia are restricted to specific cell types, these organelles are found almost ubiquitously in vertebrate cells, where they serve a diverse set of
