Dryness rapidly injures the cilia and destroys the accuracy ... that described by Corssen and Allen. 22 From the trachea and bronchi of human beings (or animals) a cup 2 to 3 mm.

The absence of effective ciliary function often resulted in complications akin to those observed in immotile cilia syndrome or cystic fibrosis ... of segmental arterial supply within the human trachea ...

They branch off like tree limbs from the bronchi—the two main air passages that receive air from the trachea (windpipe ... components that also play an important role in respiration: Cilia: Tiny ...

Transverse sections from P0 GemC1 WT/WT (upper) or GemC1 KO/KO (lower) trachea, immunostained with antibodies against keratin 5 (Krt5, basal cell marker, green) and acetylated α‐tubulin (ACT, cilia ...

The trachea is also lined with tiny hair-like structures called cilia. These help push mucus that contains debris or pathogens out of the trachea. A person then either swallows or spits out the mucus.

Instead, these biobots are fashioned from cells taken from the surface of an adult human trachea. In a new study ... a single cell covered in hair-like cilia. When grown in the lab, scientists ...
