Ciliary beat frequency in neonates with mild bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) significantly differed vs. moderate or severe BPD. Cilia bended angle and amplitude significantly differed between the ...

Cilia are specialised, microtubule‐based organelles that project from the surface of most vertebrate cells and function as critical sensory and signalling platforms. They exist predominantly as either ...

In many cells of the human body, hair-like protrusions known as cilia act as antennae, allowing cells to receive signals from their environment and other cells. As cells grow and divide, each cilium ...

To aid in assessing the impact of chemicals and drugs on cilia function in the small airway epithelium, the lung cilia beat frequency analysis in vitro assay is the ideal option. Using the ...

Primary cilia are sensory organelles present on the cell surface; however, their physical structure has not been defined due to technical reasons. A new PNAS study examined primary cilia in human ...

Almost every eukaryotic cell type has cilia—tiny hairlike structures—on their surface. But, the function of cilia is not well understood. Now, researchers show that human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs ...

MENLO PARK, Calif. & DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ReCode Therapeutics, a biopharmaceutical company powering the next wave of genetic medicines through superior delivery today presented new preclinical ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Both percent-predicted FEV 1 and FVC in primary ciliary dyskinesia improved with the addition of idrevloride to ...

MILAN -- Research presented at this year's annual European Respiratory Society congress included early successes in transplanting a patient's own lung cells to ease chronic obstructive pulmonary ...

Researchers have uncovered a synapse on neurons’ tiny hair-like structures, which may facilitate long-term changes to genomic information in the nucleus. A new study from the Howard Hughes Medical ...
