Regulation of Calcium Signaling by Primary Cilia and Its Role in Polycystic Kidney Disease Pathogenesis
Year: 2014
Type: article
Abstract: Primary cilia with a diameter of ~200 nm have been implicated in development and disease.Calcium signaling within a primary cilium has never been directly visualized and has therefore remained a speculation.Fluid-shear stress and dopamine receptor type-5 (DR5) agonist are among the few stimuli that require cilia for intracellular calcium
