Primary cilia under fluid flow downregulate mTOR signalling to inhibit cell size.

UMass Chan scientists discover process controlling cilia development Work by Sumeda Nandadasa and colleagues uncovers a molecular mechanism affecting ciliopathies such as Meckel-Gruber and Joubert ...

Small antenna-like structures that protrude from nearly all eukaryotic cells, cilia are essential for movement, signaling, sensing mechanical stimuli and controlling fluid flow.
