3D Organisation of Cells in Pseudostratified Epithelia
Pseudostratified epithelia have smooth apical and basal surfaces, yet along the apical-basal axis, cells assume highly irregular shapes, which we introduce as punakoids. They interact dynamically with many more cells than visible at the surface. Here, we review a recently developed new perspective o...
