Phosphatase inhibitor 2 promotes acetylation of tubulin in the primary cilium of human retinal epithelial cells

open access: yesBMC Cell Biology, 2008
Background Primary cilia are flagella-like projections from the centriole of mammalian cells that have a key role in cell signaling. Human diseases are linked to defects in primary cilia.

Primary cilium-dependent autophagy drafts PIK3C2A to generate PtdIns3P in response to shear stress

open access: yesAutophagy, 2020
Primary cilium-dependent macroautophagy/autophagy is induced by the urinary flow in epithelial cells of the kidney proximal tubule. A major physiological outcome of this cascade is the control of cell size.

Effect of curvature and normal forces on motor regulation of cilia [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Cilia are ubiquitous organelles involves in eukaryotic motility. They are long, slender, and motile protrusions from the cell body. They undergo active regular oscillatory beating patterns that can propel cells, such as the algae Chlamydomonas, through fluids.

Sensing Fluid-Shear Stress in the Endothelial System with a Special Emphasis on the Primary Cilium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Fluid shear stress (FSS) is able to generate phenotypic changes in the cells in direct contact with the strain force. In order to detect and transduce FSS into intracellular pathways, biological systems use a specific set of sensors, called ...

New LKB1 function in the primary cilium [PDF]

open access: yesCilia, 2015
The serine threonine kinase LKB1 is conserved and ubiquitously expressed throughout evolution. In humans, LKB1 is causally linked to the Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS), an autosomal dominant inherited disorder characterized by melanocytic macules of the lips and multiple gastrointestinal hamartomatous polyps.

Structures and functions of cilia during vertebrate embryo development

open access: yesMolecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 89, Issue 12, Page 579-596, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Cilia are hair‐like structures that project from the surface of cells. In vertebrates, most cells have an immotile primary cilium that mediates cell signaling, and some specialized cells assemble one or multiple cilia that are motile and beat synchronously to move fluids in one direction.

DGKδ triggers endoplasmic reticulum release of IFT88-containing vesicles destined for the assembly of primary cilia

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The morphogenic factor Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signals through the primary cilium, which relies on intraflagellar transport to maintain its structural integrity and function.

An EMT–primary cilium–GLIS2 signaling axis regulates mammogenesis and claudin-low breast tumorigenesis

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
The Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) and primary ciliogenesis induce stem cell properties in basal Mammary Stem Cells (MaSCs) to promote mammogenesis, but the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood.
