Abstract

Primary cilia were the largely neglected nonmotile counterparts of their better-known cousin, the motile cilia. For years these nonmotile cilia were considered evolutionary remnants of little consequence to cellular function. Fast forward 10 years and we now recognize primary cilia as key integrators of extracellular ligand-based signaling and cellular polarity, which regulate neuronal cell fate, migration, differentiation, as well as a host of adult behaviors. Important future questions will focus on structure-function relationships, their roles in signaling and disease and as areas of target for treatments.

  • Treatment of mouse hippocampal neurons with somatostatin stimulates recruitment of endogenous beta-arrestin into SSTR3-positive cilia, leading to a rapid beta-arrestin-2-dependent decrease in ciliary SSTR3.

    “Treatment of mouse hippocampal neurons with the SSTR3 ligand, somatostatin, stimulates recruitment of endogenous β-arrestin into SSTR3-positive cilia, leading to a rapid β-arrestin-2-dependent decrease in the ciliary SSTR3 167”

    From Cellular signalling by primary cilia in development, organ function and disease (2019) · cites this paper as [167]

    The section “Primary Cilia in the Adult Nervous System: Neurogenesis and Signaling?” states that SSTR3 is localized to neuronal cilia. It does not describe somatostatin treatment, β-arrestin recruitment, or a rapid β-arrestin-2-dependent decrease in ciliary SSTR3 (searched for somatostatin, SSTR3, and β-arrestin). (LLM, conf=0.86)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Ciliary localization of SSTR3 is not affected in beta-arrestin-2-deficient hippocampal neurons.

    “ciliary localization of SSTR3 is not affected in β-arrestin-2-deficient hippocampal neurons167.”

    From Cellular signalling by primary cilia in development, organ function and disease (2019) · cites this paper as [167]

    The section ‘Primary Cilia in the Adult Nervous System: Neurogenesis and Signaling?’ states that SSTR3 localizes to neuronal cilia (page not provided). It does not address β-arrestin-2-deficient hippocampal neurons or whether SSTR3 localization is unaffected in them; searches for those terms found no such result. (LLM, conf=0.86)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Neuronal cilia are enriched for certain GPCRs and downstream effector proteins.

    “Neuronal cilia are enriched for certain GPCRs and downstream effector proteins 152, 166, 167”

    From Cellular signalling by primary cilia in development, organ function and disease (2019) · cites this paper as [167]

    The sections on special sensory neurons and neuronal migration describe GPCRs in neuronal cilia, including olfactory GPCRs and ciliary receptors needed for guidance-cue responses (page not provided). The copy also describes ciliary signaling, but the located passages do not establish that neuronal cilia are enriched for downstream effector proteins. (LLM, conf=0.81)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • The primary cilium is important in neuronal cells.

    “Numerous studies have suggested the importance of the primary cilium in neuronal cells (Guemez-Gamboa et al. 2014).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
