Interkinetic nuclear movements promote apical expansion in pseudostratified epithelia at the expense of apicobasal elongation
2019-06-11
Abstract excerpt
Pseudostratified epithelia (PSE) are a common type of columnar epithelia found in a wealth of embryonic and adult tissues such as ectodermal placodes, the trachea, the ureter, the gut and the neuroepithelium. PSE are characterized by the choreographed displacement of cells’ nuclei along the apicobasal axis according to phases of their cell cycle. Such movements, called interkinetic movements (INM) have been propos...
