Cell biology researchers at the Department of Biology at the University of Copenhagen have made a discovery about two ciliary proteins that have previously been linked to diabetes, obesity and kidney ...
Some might say it looks like a finger. Others might see a worm. Scientists in the field often liken it to an antenna. The technical name is primary cilium. This slender, microscopic appendage juts out ...
A new study reveals insights into the "antennae" - or primary cilia - that human cells use for signal processing. This atlas ...
Stanford researchers discovered that dialing down an overactive enzyme, LRRK2, can regrow lost cellular “antennae” in key brain cells, restoring vital dopamine communication and neuroprotective ...
In mapping the primary cilia in human cells, researchers at KTH Royal Institute of Technology and Stanford University have opened the door to identifying new disease-causing genes and better ...
A new treatment for one type of Parkinson's disease may be on the horizon after researchers discovered a "brake" that can halt cell death. The study, led by researchers from Stanford University, ...
