Motile statocyst cilia transmit rather than directly transduce mechanical stimuli

We have investigated the role of motile cilia in mechanotransduction by statocysts of the nudibranch mollusk Hermissenda crassicornis. Movement of the cilia that experience the weight of statoconia causes increased variance of voltage noise and membrane depolarization of the statocyst hair cell. Two...
