Primary cilia have moved from the background of cell biology into the forefront of research. Now known to be present on almost every cell type in the body, cilia play a central role in the regulation ...
The first image of the structures that power human cilia -- the tiny, hairlike projections that line our airways -- has now been produced and it could lead to much-needed treatments for people with ...
Researchers have discovered that tiny cell structures called primary cilia help repair DNA in bile duct cells, opening new ...
Eukaryotic cilia and flagella are essential organelles that extend from the cell surface, playing crucial roles in sensory ...
The beta cells of the pancreas are responsible for releasing the hormone insulin, which is vital for the absorption of glucose from the bloodstream. Various factors can impair the ability of these ...
A team led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers has uncovered the atomic structure of a protein complex pivotal to the function of motile cilia, the hair-like structures extending from the ...
Research shows that the improper methylation of a protein called 'Septin2,' which regulates the structure of cilia, was associated with an increased risk of having a neural tube defect (NTD) and ...
The first image of the structures that power human cilia – the tiny, hairlike projections that line our airways – has been produced by a team involving UCL researchers and could lead to much-needed ...
This paper describes the fine structure and its relationship to the direction of beat in four types of cilia on the gill of the fresh-water mussel Anodonta cataracta. The cilia contain nine outer, ...
Electronic textile (e-textile) allows for high-end wearable electronic devices that provide easy access for carrying, handling and using. However, the related technology does not seem to be mature ...
The Journal of Biophysical and Biochemical Cytology, Vol. 9, No. 4 (Apr., 1961), pp. 799-812 (14 pages) The fine structure of the coronal cilia of the rotifer Philodina citrina has been studied in ...
