Molecular aspects of the epithelial phenotype.

BioEssays : news and reviews in molecular, cellular and developmental biology - 1 Aug 1997

Davies J A, Garrod D R

Abstract excerpt

Epithelia can be defined morphologically as tissues that line surfaces, and ultrastructurally with reference to their cells' apico-basal polarity and possession of specific cell-cell junctions. Defining the epithelial phenotype at a molecular level is more problematic--while it is easy to name pr...
