Antennas of organ morphogenesis: the roles of cilia in vertebrate kidney development
7 Jul 2016
Abstract excerpt
Cilia arose early during eukaryotic evolution, and their structural components are highly conserved from the simplest protists to complex metazoan species. In recent years, the role of cilia in the ontogeny of vertebrate organs has received increasing attention due to a staggering correlation between human disease and dysfunctional cilia. In particular, the presence of cilia in both the developing and mature...
