In a study published in Cell Research, a research team has, for the first time, resolved the high-resolution in situ structure of the central apparatus (CA) within the axoneme of mammalian sperm.

In brief Urinary stents and catheters currently need to be replaced every two to six months due to blockages caused by bacterial biofilms and encrustations. Researchers from ETH Zurich, the University ...

The team modeled cilia and their movement in three dimensions, both during a ‘power stroke’ that propels the mucus forward and during a ‘recovery stroke’ where the cilia return to their starting ...

Place chicken, broth, and onion in a large Dutch oven. Cut 1 celery stalk and 1 carrot in half crosswise; add to Dutch oven with thyme or parsley sprigs, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil over high; ...

Primary cilia (PC) are important signaling hubs, and we here explored their role in colonic pathology. In the colon, PC are mostly present on fibroblasts, and exposure of mice to either chemically ...

One tiny flick of a microscopic cellular hair, known as a cilium, can’t do much on its own. But together, these structures routinely pull off biological marvels within the body. Cilia remove ...

When the robot was flipped over, so the cilia were on the bottom, their movement allowed the device to scuttle across a flat surface. It could even crawl up a 45-degree slope, and carry an object ...

In nature, cilia flap independently, and mimicking these movements with artificial materials requires complex mechanisms. Now, researchers reporting in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces have made ...

Magnetically propelled cilia power climbing soft robots and microfluidic pumps Date: May 19, 2021 Source: American Chemical Society Summary: The rhythmic motions of hair-like cilia move liquids ...

Many organisms – ranging from single-cell protists to humans – rely on microscopic hair-like structures called cilia and flagella to perform a wide range of roles. In the human respiratory system, for ...
