The list of genetic diseases associated with dysfunction of primary cilia continues to expand. Two new studies add to this growing body of literature and provide a fascinating example of the clinical ...

ATS 2025, San Francisco – Premature infants are at risk of bronchopulmonary dysplasia, or BPD, a type of lung injury associated with increased mortality. Now a new study published at the ATS 2025 ...

Ciliary beat frequency in neonates with mild bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) significantly differed vs. moderate or severe BPD. Cilia bended angle and amplitude significantly differed between the ...

Nearly every cell in the human body has one or more protrusive structures called cilia or flagella. These power cell movement and fluid flow, sense the extracellular environment, coordinate cell ...

Premature infants are at risk of bronchopulmonary dysplasia, or BPD, a type of lung injury associated with increased mortality. Now a new study published at the ATS 2025 International Conference shows ...

In many cells of the human body, hair-like protrusions known as cilia act as antennae, allowing cells to receive signals from their environment and other cells. As cells grow and divide, each cilium ...

Most biologists are familiar with motile cilia, the finger-like appendages that allow unicellular organisms to swim, and the specialized cells that move fluids and clear away debris in our kidneys and ...

Middle-ear infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria remain among the most common pediatric illnesses worldwide.
