Planar cell polarity: heading in the right direction.

Developmental dynamics : an official publication of the American Association of Anatomists - 1 Jun 2005

Kiefer Julie C

Abstract excerpt

Epithelial cells are patterned not only along their apical-basolateral axis, but also along the plane of the epithelial sheet; the latter event is regulated by the planar cell polarity (PCP) pathway. PCP regulates diverse outputs, such as the distal placement of a hair in all cells of the Drosophila wing, and convergent extension movements during gastrulation in the vertebrate embryo. This primer describes the...
