Function

The lateral wall was also examined under an electron microscope, revealing a lack of cilia of ependymal cells. Transmission electron microscope scanning found the vacuolated change in some cilia of cross-sections and the lack of a 9 + 2 structure. Our findings suggested that the mutation of L1CAM was possibly associated with the abnormal ciliary structure, which may lead to hydrocephalus(PMID: 32128973).
