Heat shock induces rapid resorption of primary cilia [PDF]
Primary cilia are involved in important developmental and disease pathways, such as the regulation of neurogenesis and tumorigenesis. They function as sensory antennae and are essential in the regulation of key extracellular signalling systems.

Role of Primary Cilia in Skeletal Disorders
Primary cilia are highly conserved microtubule-based organelles that project from the cell surface into the extracellular environment and play important roles in mechanosensation, mechanotransduction, polarity maintenance, and cell behaviors during organ

A Ciliary View of the Immunological Synapse
The primary cilium has gone from being a vestigial organelle to a crucial signaling hub of growing interest given the association between a group of human disorders, collectively known as ciliopathies, and defects in its structure or function.

Lengthening primary cilia enhances cellular mechanosensitivity [PDF]
The primary cilium is a mechanosensor in a variety of mammalian cell types, initiating and directing intracellular signalling cascades in response to external stimuli.

Primary Cilia: The New Face of Craniofacial Research
The primary cilium is a solitary, sensory organelle that extends from the surface of nearly every vertebrate cell, including craniofacial cells. This organelle converts chemical and physical external stimuli into intracellular signaling cascades and ...

Location of Smoothened Protein in Primary Cilium
The primary cilium is an important organelle that facilitates numerous signaling pathways and delivers extracellular signals into the cell. Among those pathways is the Hedgehog (HH) signaling pathway, which has an important role in bone formation ...

High water intake induces primary cilium elongation in renal tubular cells [PDF]
Background The primary cilium protrudes from the cell surface and functions as a mechanosensor. Recently, we found that water intake restriction shortens the primary cilia of renal tubular cells, and a blockage of the shortening disturbs the ability of ...

A Mec17-Myosin II Effector Axis Coordinates Microtubule Acetylation and Actin Dynamics to Control Primary Cilium Biogenesis. [PDF]
Primary cilia are specialized, acetylated microtubule-based signaling processes. Cilium assembly is activated by cellular quiescence and requires reconfiguration of microtubules, the actin cytoskeleton, and vesicular trafficking machinery.
