Mechanisms, mechanics and function of epithelial-mesenchymal transitions in early development.

Mechanisms of development - 1 Nov 2003

Shook David, Keller Ray

Abstract excerpt

Epithelial-mesenchymal transitions (EMTs) are an important mechanism for reorganizing germ layers and tissues during embryonic development. They have both a morphogenic function in shaping the embryo and a patterning function in bringing about new juxtapositions of tissues, which allow further inductive patterning events to occur [Genesis 28 (2000) 23]. Whereas the mechanics of EMT in cultured cells is relatively...
