9 + 0 and 9 + 2 cilia are randomly dispersed in the mouse node

Abstract: The initial determination of left-right asymmetry is an essential process in embryonic development. In mouse embryo, cilia in the node play an important role generating the nodal flow that subsequently triggers left-right determination in the embryo. Although nodal cilia have historically been thought to have a 9 + 0 axonemal configuration, the existence of 9 + 2 cilia has been reported so far. Because the distribution of those two types of cilia within the node has not yet been reported, we assessed the arran… Show more

“…To translate AP polarity to LR polarity, the clockwise rotation rather than the planar beating of ciliary motion pattern is indispensable and we speculate that this is the reason why the mouse node cilia have lost radial spokes during evolution. Avery recent study reports the presence of minor population of cells in the mouse node containing cilia of 9þ2 structure (Odate et al 2016). It is tempting to propose that the mouse embryo might still be evolving toward the loss of 9þ2 arrangement.…”

“…These cilia show planar beating and generate directional fluid flow. In contrast, the 9þ0 type motile cilia present in the node cavity of the mouse embryo possess nine doublet microtubules with dynein arms but lack the central microtubules and radial spokes (Nonaka et al 1998;Takeda et al 1999;Hirokawa et al 2006;Shinohara et al 2015;Odate et al 2016). The driving force of ciliary bending is generated by sliding of dynein arms between the peripheral doublet microtubules of the axoneme (Summers et al 1971;Fox et al 1987).…”

“…The axoneme of motile cilia is made up of a microtubule-based cytoskeleton arranged in an organized 9 + 2 pattern, with the exception of motile nodal cilia largely lacking central pair microtubules [34,91]. The sliding of the microtubules against each other enables ciliary motility and requires additional structural components, namely: inner and outer dynein arms, the outer dynein arm docking complex, the nexin dynein regulatory complex (N-DRC), and radial spokes (Figure 4A).…”

“…Cilia with varied ultrastructure have also been identified within the node. Cilia with 9 + 2 and 9 + 4 structures have been found in the zebrafish, mouse, and rabbit embryonic node but their function and movement pattern are not yet known; it is presumed they would beat rather than spin (due to the presence of central microtubules) [ 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 ]. Motility requires transcription factor FOXJ1, among others, and functional IDA and ODA motor complexes [ 68 ].…”
