The ciliary currents associated with feeding, digestion, and sediment removal in Adula (botula) falcata Gould 1851 (bivalvia, mytilidae)
… rock borer in soft mudstone reefs at Bolinas and Moss Beach, California (Figure 1). Keen (1963) reports that Adula falcata has been collected from the intertidal to a depth of ten fathoms. Its distribution is from Coos Bay, Oregon, to Cape San Lucas, Lower California (Hertlein and Strong, …

Structural characterization of primary cilia using accelerated piezoelectrically driven STED nanoscopy
Primary cilia are non-motile, hair-like projections occurring on most mammalian cell types. They play essential roles in transduction of chemical and mechanical signals across the cell membrane. For example, primary cilia are able to transduce sonic hedgehog signals, necessary in embryonic …

Mutation of Polaris, an Intraflagellar Transport Protein, Shortens Neuronal Cilia
Primary cilia are non-motile organelles having 9+0 microtubules that project from the basal body of the cell. While the main purpose of motile cilia in mammalian cells is to move fluid or mucus over the cell surface, the purpose of primary cilia has remained elusive for the most part. Primary cilia …

Immunohistochemical characterization of neuronal cilia in the rat central nervous system.
An anti-G"11 antibody was used to label neuronal cilia throughout the rat central nervous system. Immunoreactive cilia were observed in every examined region of the rat CNS, but not in monkey or mouse tissue. Antibodies to G"q and G"q/11 failed to label cilia. Immunoreactive cilia were observed as …
