Cytoskeleton polarity is essential in determining orientational order in basal bodies of multi-ciliated cells.

PLoS computational biology - 1 Feb 2020

Namba Toshinori, Ishihara Shuji

Abstract excerpt

In multi-ciliated cells, directed and synchronous ciliary beating in the apical membrane occurs through appropriate configuration of basal bodies (BBs, roots of cilia). Although it has been experimentally shown that the position and orientation of BBs are coordinated by apical cytoskeletons (CSKs), such as microtubules (MTs), and planar cell polarity (PCP), the underlying mechanism for achieving the patterning of...
