Molecular mechanisms of epithelial polarity: about shapes, forces, and orientation problems.

Abstract

In a variety of organs, epithelial cells assemble into networks of cysts and tubules. Such structures can be reproduced in vitro. Here the importance of plasma membrane compartmentalization and forces that drive morphogenetic events during cystogenesis are discussed.
