Primary cilia
The primary cilium was first so named by Sergei Sorokin in 1968.[1] Since the discovery of primary cilium in 1898 by Zimmerman, three major hypotheses for their function have been put forth. The first is that primary cilia are vestigial organelles inherited from an ancestor whose cells had motile cilia and now are of no purpose in multicellular organisms. The second is that they are involved in...

lization. This independence of calcium and PGE 2 has been reported previously and suggests that there are multiple mechanisms by which bone cells sense their mechanical environment. These findings are currently in press in the Primary cilia mediate mechanosensing in bone cells by a calcium-independent mechanism. by oscillatory fluid flow via intracellular calcium mobilization and activation of ...

Knocking out primary cilia of adult mouse tissues or a specific subset of cilia from POMC-expressing neurons in the brain initiates uncontrolled eating. This behavior leads to obesity and kidney disease.
متن کاملBiology of Cilia and Ciliopathies
Cilia and flagella are microtubule-based appendages extending from the basal body of most eukaryotic cells, and are classified as either motile or primary. Motile cilia or flagella can be found on many cells such as Chlamydomonas, sperm, and respiratory tract epithelial cells. This type of cilia is responsible for movement of the cell itself or generation of fluid flow. In contrast, primary cil...
متن کاملPericentrin pivotal in primary cilia
Pericentrin pivotal in primary cilia he centrosome protein pericentrin acts as an anchor for primary cilia formation in human cells, according to a report by Jurczyk et al. (page 637). The finding further unites the centrosome and primary cilia, both of which are based around centri-oles, and both of which use pericentrin as an anchor for other proteins. The authors show that pericentrin is loc...
