Significats de basal polarity en anglès

Loss of apico- basal polarity often results in a malignant phenotype in epithelial tissues.

Apico- basal polarity is a hallmark of epithelial tissues.

The growth of a well-formed epithelial structure is governed by mechanical constraints, cellular apico- basal polarity, and spatially controlled cell division.

Apical- basal polarity is essential for the formation and function of epithelial tissues, whereas loss of polarity is a hallmark of tumours.

Planar cell polarity or PCP refers to a uniform cellular organization within the plan, typically orthogonal to the apico- basal polarity axis.

By definition, all epithelial cells have apical- basal polarity, but it is unclear how epithelial polarity is acquired and how polarized cells engage in tube formation.
