Insights into the zebrafish left–right organizer's centrosomes and cilia via volume electron microscopy Summary: An electron microscopy-based reconstruction of all cilia and centrosomes within an intact left–right organizer reveals unexpected structural diversity at organ scale.

Hehnly lab recently graduated PhD student, Favour Ononiwu's paper using #vEM on the #zebrafish Left Right Organizer is live! Check out all the cool #centrosomes and #cilia: journals.biologists.com/bio/article/...

Come and join us in the beautiful #Savoie mountains to discuss the latest research on #cilia!

Hello everyone, we had a great meeting yesterday @institutimagine.bsky.social , thanks again to all the speakers for their very interesting talks on primary and motile #cilia #flagella #ciliopathies! Next one is organized by Caroline Brun, Marine Laporte, Véronique Morel in Aussois in September!

Missense Variants in the Second Transmembrane Domain of TMEM17 Disrupt Its Stability and Function and Lead to a Wide Phenotypic Spectrum of Ciliopathies Missense variants in TMEM17 disrupt its localization and function at the ciliary transition zone, leading to a wide range of ciliopathy phenotypes, from OFD6 and Joubert syndromes to Meckel syndrome.

Congratulations to Lucile Boutaud, Sophie Thomas and colleagues @institutimagine.bsky.social ! #cilia #ciliopathies

An inducible multiciliated cell line resolves proteome dynamics and identifies CDK7 as a conserved regulator. New study from Camille Boutin @camboutin.bsky.social, Laurent Kodjabachian @ibdm.bsky.social @univ-amu.fr and colleagues: rupress.org/jcb/article/...

🧪 🧫 Photoreceptors depend on exquisitely organised cilia, with disruptions in microtubule regulation compromising retinal health. Beyond providing molecular diagnoses to affected families, this work deepens our understanding of ciliary biology, and highlights why fundamental research matters.

Bacteria deliver a microtubule-binding protein into mammalian cells to promote colonization Pathogenic Bordetella bacteria use protein adhesins to infect the ciliated respiratory epithelia of vertebrate hosts. In this work, we show that the filamentous hemagglutinin FhaB adhesin of Bordetell...

The figure shows staining of mouse embryos with X-gal to highlight Ttc21b in whole-mount embryos (panels A-D,H) or after sectioning (panels E-G,I-N). Boxed areas in panel E are shown magnified in panels F and G, boxed areas in panels I and L are shown magnified in panels J and M. Arrows indicate specific areas of lacZ expression.

Rebekah Niewoehner, Rolf Stottmann & co found that pathogenic Ttc21b variants, the primary #cilia gene, contribute to primary #microcephaly, with homozygous #mouse mutants showing severe #microcephaly due to impaired neural progenitor proliferation and differentiation.

Together we tried to understand why the #Xenopus embryo have motile #cilia.
In the second part of the workshop, they played at being researchers and tried to guess the stages of embryos using binocular.

@camboutin.bsky.social, Kodjabachian et al. @ibdm.bsky.social describe an inducible multiciliated cell line well suited for advanced #microscopy and #proteomic approaches. The study provides a detailed proteomic profiling of MCC during their differentiation. rupress.org/jcb/article/...

Proud and excited to share our work with the community! Helen @helenfoster.bsky.social Foster et al. study how #cilia axonemes are built. 👀 Don't miss the gorgeous and insightful movies by @margotriggi.bsky.social, they really show our discoveries in full action!
