Enhanced primary ciliogenesis via mitochondrial oxidative stress activates AKT to prevent neurotoxicity in HSPA9/mortalin-depleted SH-SY5Y cells
The primary cilium, an antenna-like structure on the cell surface, acts as a mechanical and chemical sensory organelle. Primary cilia play critical...

Targeting the photoreceptor cilium for the treatment of retinal diseases
Photoreceptors, as polarised sensory neurons, are essential for light sensation and phototransduction, which are highly dependent on the...
-
Primary cilia as dynamic and diverse signalling hubs in development and disease
Primary cilia, antenna-like sensory organelles protruding from the surface of most vertebrate cell types, are essential for regulating signalling...

A Ciliary Branched Actin Network Drives Photoreceptor Disc Morphogenesis
The light-detecting organelle of the photoreceptor cell is a modified primary cilium, called the outer segment. The outer segment houses hundreds of... -
Non-syndromic Retinal Degeneration Caused by Pathogenic Variants in Joubert Syndrome Genes
Inherited retinal degenerations (IRDs) are a group of genetic disorders characterized by progressive dysfunction and loss of photoreceptors. IRDs are... -
Whole genome sequencing in the diagnosis of primary ciliary dyskinesia
BackgroundIt is estimated that 1–13% of cases of bronchiectasis in adults globally are attributable to primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) but many...
