Describe the following cell-surface modifications using the table below. ||Cell-sruface modification||Type(s) of epithelia with the modification||Function (include a specific organ) |Cilia| | |Goblet cells| | |Microvilli| | Identify the structure from the given description: The cytoplasm of a...
Many cells of the body, including renal epithelial cells, have a surface structure known as the primary cilium. Cilia are elongated membrane protrusions that surround a central core of microtubules arising from a microtubule organizing center known as the basal body (reviewed in Davenport and Yo...
Finally, we assessed whether the Spike S1 protein bound to primary cilia, using a modification of sequence C (Fig. 8). Live A549 cells were incubated with Spike S1-Fc prior to immunodetection with a combination of anti-ACE2 and anti-vimentin antibodies, followed by the corresponding secondary...
expression of CA-TMEM16F, compared to that of empty vector-transfected HEK293 cells (Fig.5b). In addition, the inhibitory effect of cell-surface PS was further confirmed by manipulating the cell-surface contents of PS using the methyl-α-cyclodextrin (MαCD)-catalyzed phospholipid exchange metho...
Cilia are hair-like projections that have a 9+2 arrangement of microtubules with a radial pattern of 9 outer microtubule doublet that surrounds two singlet microtubules. This arrangement is attached to the bottom with a basal body. Flagella is a filamentous organelle, the structure of which, is...
In multiciliated cells (MCCs), apical actin drives expansion of the cell surface necessary to host hundreds of cilia. The apical actin also forms a lattice to uniformly distribute basal bodies. This apical actin network is dynamically remodeled, but the molecules that regulate its architecture ...
These cultures are desirable as they more closely resemble the airway epithelial structure and function in vitro [63]. However, the presence of mucus and cilia, tight junctions, and increased quiescence of these differentiated tissues may pose additional challenges in chemical transfection....
Which of these cellular organelles is membranous? a. mitochondria b. cilia c. ribosomes d. centrioles What structure attaches the basal surface of an epithelial cell to the underlying basement membrane? What cell/protein of the immune system is being described? These cells engulf a pathogen in...

Cell-ECM interaction is often studied by controlling the non-fluidic chemical environment via surface modification and micropatterning. However, these reactors have not yet reached the stage that allows one to thoroughly characterize stem cell-ECM communication, even if they provide building blocks or ...
