Centrosome maintains the integrity of and repairs mature olfactory cilia in adult Drosophila

These findings uncover an active, centrosome-dependent, cell-autonomous mechanism for maintaining and repairing mature metazoan cilia in fully grown organs in adulthood and also provide a possible explanation for how deregulation of conserved ciliary base components could lead to progressive, late-onset cilia-related d...
