Border regions can cause cilia to coordinate their motion creating a unidirectional wave that is essential for biological functions. Scientists proposed a new model describing this synchronized ...

Scientists developed a new OCT imaging approach that can directly image the coordination of motile cilia in their natural environment. Research team members Deirdre Scully and Tian Xia are pictured ...

To aid in assessing the impact of chemicals and drugs on cilia function in the small airway epithelium, the lung cilia beat frequency analysis in vitro assay is the ideal option. Using the ...

Understanding this motion may help to tackle health problems that affect cilia, which range from fertility issues to lung disease and COVID-19. Using cryo-electron tomography, researchers have ...

Researchers have developed a new optical coherence tomography (OCT) approach that can directly image coordination of tiny hair-like structures known as motile cilia in their natural environment. The ...
