The microbe Pyrodictium abyssi is an archaeon—a member of what's known as the third domain of life—and an extremophile. It ...

Ultrastructure expansion microscopy revealed that defective centrioles hinder sperm motility by impeding flagellum formation ...

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 ...

New research has unraveled the mystery of how microscopic cilia coordinate to move and propel marine creatures through water. Cilia are tiny, hair-like protrusions found in many organisms, including ...

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 ...

The film discusses the anatomical and functional significance of the nose, throat, and ears from a medical perspective. It explains how the nose functions as an air passage that warms and filters ...

Many cells in our body have a single primary cilium, a micrometer-long, hair-like organelle protruding from the cell surface that transmits cellular signals. Cilia are important for regulating ...

Cancer is a major worldwide health issue that causes immense suffering and loss of life. Out of different types of cancer, pancreatic cancer stands out, with its five-year survival rate of only 11.5% ...

The first line of defense our bodies have against respiratory invaders is our mucus. A layer of mucus lines our airways to trap invasive particles, and this layer is propelled along by the collective ...

Left-right asymmetry is known to be established during early embryogenesis by a small cluster of cells termed the left-right organizer. Within this organizer, motile cilia beat rapidly to create a ...
