But he is unimpressed that the human cell clusters can “swim” with their cilia. That, he says, is pretty much inevitable if you have beating cilia once the spheroids are freed from the gel matrix.

Scientists have created tiny living robots from human cells that can move around in a lab dish and may one day be able to help heal wounds or damaged tissue, according to a new study.. A team at ...

Dysfunctions of the tiny cell processes (primary cilia) of the pancreatic beta cells could be a cause of type 2 diabetes. Little is known about the structure and function of these cilia. An ...
