Because ciliary motion at the embryonic node is required for the specification of laterality, we examined the tracheal epithelia of newborn mice as a proxy for the nodal cilia. However ...

We generated a systematic review to retrieve relevant imaging studies that describe the acute and chronic imaging findings that underly vaping-related lung structure-function abnormalities ... zone ...

Together, these findings provide new insights and raise new questions about how these differences and locations affect cilia function, Ott says. "We know that diseases that involve cilia can have ...

By reexamining 3D images used to map the connections between brain cells, researchers are uncovering new information about a small, elusive, and often overlooked cellular appendage.

Executive function describes a set of cognitive processes and mental skills that help an individual plan, monitor, and successfully execute their goals. The “executive functions,” as they’re ...
