Significados de epithelial polarity em inglês

The integrated activity of several evolutionarily conserved protein complexes is essential to control epithelial polarity during development and homeostasis.

Hence, the establishment and maintenance of epithelial polarity and integrity is of crucial importance for the development of multicellular organisms.

Septins are filamentous GTPases required for polarized membrane growth in budding yeast, but whether they function in epithelial polarity is unknown.

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.
