Epithelial Transition Zones: merging microenvironments, niches, and cellular transformation

1 May 2011

Abstract excerpt

Transition zones (TZs) are regions in the body where two different types of epithelial tissue meet resulting in the appearance of a distinct abrupt transition. These TZs are found in numerous locations within the body, including the cornea-conjunctiva junction, esophagogastric junction, gastro-duodenal junction, endo-ectocervix junction, ileocecal junction, and anorectal junction. Several of these TZs are often...
