The primary cilium conducts chondrocyte mechanotransduction [PDF]

open access: yesCilia, 2012
In several cell types fluid-flow deflection of primary cilia initiates a mechanotransduction pathway via polycystin 1 and 2 (PC1/2). In articular cartilage the chondrocyte primary cilium extends into cartilage matrix. Mechanical signals including compression and fluid flow trigger mechanosensitive regulation of matrix synthesis underpinning tissue ...

The primary cilium protein folliculin is part of the autophagy signaling pathway to regulate epithelial cell size in response to fluid flow

open access: yesCell Stress, 2019
Autophagy is a conserved molecular pathway directly involved in the degradation and recycling of intracellular components. Autophagy is associated with a response to stress situations, such as nutrients deficit, chemical toxicity, mechanical stress or ...

Functional aspects of primary cilium in signaling, assembly and microenvironment in cancer

open access: yesJournal of Cellular Physiology, 2020
The primary cilium is an antennae‐like structure extent outside the cell surface. It has an important role in regulating cell‐signaling transduction to affect proliferation, differentiation and migration.

Generic flow profiles induced by a beating cilium [PDF]

open access: yesEur. Phys. J. E 35 (2012) 72, 2012
We describe a multipole expansion for the low Reynolds number fluid flows generated by a localized source embedded in a plane with a no-slip boundary condition. It contains 3 independent terms that fall quadratically with the distance and 6 terms that fall with the third power.

Uni-directional ciliary membrane protein trafficking by a cytoplasmic retrograde IFT motor and ciliary ectosome shedding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The role of the primary cilium in key signaling pathways depends on dynamic regulation of ciliary membrane protein composition, yet we know little about the motors or membrane events that regulate ciliary membrane protein trafficking in existing ...

Disruption of Dhcr7 and Insig1/2 in cholesterol metabolism causes defects in bone formation and homeostasis through primary cilium formation

open access: yesBone Research, 2020
Human linkage studies suggest that craniofacial deformities result from either genetic mutations related to cholesterol metabolism or high-cholesterol maternal diets.

Pathophysiology of Primary Cilia: Signaling and Proteostasis Regulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Primary cilia are microtubule-based, non-motile sensory organelles present in most types of growth-arrested eukaryotic cells. They are transduction hubs that receive and transmit external signals to the cells in order to control growth, differentiation ...

Excitable mechanics embodied in a walking cilium [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Rapid transduction of sensory stimulation to action is essential for an animal to survive. To this end, most animals use the sub-second excitable and multistable dynamics of a neuromuscular system. Here, studying an animal without neurons or muscles, we report analogous excitable and multistable dynamics embedded in the physics of a 'walking' cilium ...
