Primary cilia control cellular patterning of Meibomian glands during morphogenesis but not lipid composition
Meibomian gland (MG) cells are ciliated in early stages of development and primary cilium is required to regulate early MG cell patterning within developing glands, with cilia-mediated signaling pathways identified as therapeutic targets.
