Length of primary cilia, which involves cell cycle reentry and disassembly of cilia, promotes cell mitosis. It is known that the cilia length in adipose tissue of the high-fat diet (HFD) animals was shortened and accompanied by increased adipogenesis. Male C57BL/6N mice were randomly divided into groups. The mice group was given the normal fat diet (NFD/saline), HFD mice group for 4 weeks, and then HFD was also treated for the next 4 weeks with saline (HFD/saline), extract (HFD/ECE), or pyrogallol-phloroglucinol-6, 6-bieckol, a segment of ECE (HFD/PPB). We evaluated the effect of ECE and PPB on modulating cilia length of visceral adipose tissue and decreasing adipogenesis by decreasing cell cycle reentry using an HFD-fed mouse model. ECE and PPB decreased physiological changes, which increased by HFD, but ECE and PPB decreased the upregulation of the IL-6/STAT3/AURKA signaling pathway, which is involved in cilia disassembly. In addition, ECE or PPB elongated the cilia and decreased cyclin A2 and Cdk2 expression, which promote cell cycle reentry, and decreased the adipogenesis genes. PPB and ECE restored cilia length and decreased adipogenesis through modulating the IL-6/STAT3/AURKA pathway and decreasing cell cycle reentry in the visceral adipose tissue of HFD/saline mice group.

Biliary atresia (BA) is a progressive hepatobiliary disease in infants, leading to liver failure and the need for transplantation. While its etiopathogenesis remains unclear, recent studies suggest primary cilia (PC) disruption plays a role. This study investigates correlations between PC and cytoplasmic tubulin (TUBA4A) alterations with hypoxia in patients with the isolated form of BA, focusing on native liver survival.

The primary cilia serve as pivotal mediators of environmental signals and play crucial roles in neuronal responses. Disruption of ciliary function has been implicated in neuronal circuit disorders and aberrant neuronal excitability. However, the precise mechanisms remain elusive.

The current investigation explores tri-hybrid mediated blood flow through a ciliary annular model, designed to emulate an endoscopic environment. The human circulatory system, driven by the metachronal ciliary waves, is examined in this study to understand how ternary nanoparticles influence wave-like flow dynamics in the presence of interfacial nanolayers. We also analyze the effect of an induced magnetic field on Ag-Cu-/blood flow within the annulus, focusing on thermal radiation, heat sources, buoyancy forces and ciliary motion.

Background: Osteocytes are crucial for detecting mechanical stimuli and translating them into biochemical responses within the bone. The primary cilium, a cellular 'antenna,' plays a vital role in this process. However, there is a lack of direct correlation between cilium length changes and osteocyte mechanosensitivity changes.
