2. 1. Mammalian sperm flagella and cilia

   Author : Jikui Guan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : In mammals, both sperm flagella and cilia are axoneme-containing organelles. The sperm flagella are major parts of the spermatozoa that are male gametes produced in the testis from progenitor spermatogonia through a process called spermatogenesis. READ MORE

4. 2. Studies on lipid transport and extracellular vesicle production in Caenorhabditis elegans ciliated neurons

   Author : Shapour Rahmani; Simon Tuck; Jonathan D. Gilthorpe; Anders Olsen; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; C. elegans; cilia; extracellular vesicles; tat; phospholipid translocase; P4-family ATPase;

   Abstract : The cilium is a protrusion of cell membrane. Both the protein and lipid contents of cilia are different from those of other parts of the cell membrane. While the transport of proteins into and out of cilia has been intensively studied, much less is known about how the lipid content of ciliary membranes is regulated. READ MORE

5. 3. Physiological roles of amyloid precursor protein in vivo - zebrafish as a model

   Author : Jasmine Chebli; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Amyloid-beta precursor protein; amyloid precursor protein-b; zebrafish; physiological functions; development; trigeminal ganglia; ependyma; cilia; proteomics; translational adaptation;

   Abstract : Amyloid-beta precursor protein (APP) is an evolutionarily conserved transmembrane protein expressed in many different tissues. APP belongs to a gene family consisting of two other APP-like proteins (APLP1 and APLP2). READ MORE

6. 4. Ultrastructural Studies of the Airway Epithelium in Airway Diseases

   Author : Eyman Shebani; Godfried M. Roomans; Marie Johannesson; Anil Mehta; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Morphology; asthma; cilia; corticosteroids; cytokines; desmosomes; Gaucher’s disease; montelukast; primary ciliary dyskinesia; transmission electron microscopy; Morfologi; Morphology; cell biology; pathology; Morfologi; cellbiologi; patologi;

   Abstract : Ultrastructural studies of airway epithelium in airway disease are important for diagnosis and understanding the underlying pathology which helps clinicians to improve the patients' treatment.Airway biopsies from a 5-month old boy with respiratory problems and gastro-oesophageal reflux were studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM).

7. 5. The study of sensory cilia development in caenorhabditis elegans

   Author : Evgeni Efimenko; Peter Swoboda; Philippe Bastin; Södertörns högskola; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Cilia and flagella are widespread eukaryotic subcellular components that are conserved from green algae to mammals. In different organisms they function in cell motility, movement of extracellular fluids and sensory reception. READ MORE
