The respiratory mucociliary epithelium is a synchronized and highly effective waste-disposal system. It uses mucus as a vehicle, driven by beating cilia, to transport unwanted particles, trapped in the mucus, away from the respiratory system. The cil

Using confocal microscopy we demonstrate that ciliary cells from airway epithelium maintain two qualitatively distinct cytosolic regions in terms of pH regulation. While the bulk of the cytosol is stringently buffered and is virtually insensitive to

Mucus propelling cilia are excitable by many stimulants, and have been shown to increase their beating frequency up to threefold, by physiological extracellular stimulants, such as adenosine-triphosphate, acetylcholine, and others. This is thought to

Forces applied by intact mucus-propelling cilia were measured for the first time that we know of using a combined atomic force microscopy (AFM) and electrooptic system. The AFM probe was dipped into a field of beating cilia and its time-dependent def

Cilia are small organelles protruding from the cell surface that beat synchronously, producing biological transport. Despite intense research for over a century, the mechanisms underlying ciliary beating are still not well understood. Even the nature

Stimulation of ciliary cells through muscarinic receptors leads to a strong biphasic enhancement of ciliary beat frequency (CBF). The main goal of this work is to delineate the chain of molecular events that lead to the enhancement of CBF induced by

The influx of calcium ions from extracellular space plays a central role in regulation of function of living cells. It has been hypothesized that calcium influx causes a rise in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca 2+ ] i ) near the plasma membra

The binding of diprotonated trans-4,4 0 -diaminostilbene (DASH2 2C ) to poly (styrenesulfonate) (PSS) and poly(vinylsulfonate) (PVS) in aqueous solution have been studied by following the changes in the absorption, fluorescence and polarization emiss

The mucociliary system is responsible for maintaining the airways clean of inhaled particles and pathogens. This task is performed by ciliated cells that transport the mucus from the lungs to the upper airways. The energy transferred by the cilium to

The mucociliary system is responsible for clearing inhaled particles and pathogens from the airways. This important task is performed by the beating of cilia and the consequent movement of mucus from the lungs to the upper airways. Because ciliary mo
