Then they applied this method to donated human pancreatic samples and used scanning electron microscopy to obtain a 3D view of cilia morphology. 2 The resulting image reveals the richness of the ...

Likewise, for many years it was generally assumed that the entire phylum Nematoda, comprising roundworms, completely lacked cilia or flagella. Now it is known that they contain primary cilia ...

To study the movement of cilia, Louis Woodhams and Phil Bayly’s team built a model that was an approximation of the structure of the flagellar axoneme, the bundle of microtubules that make up ...
