Epithelial cells exhibit an apical-basolateral axis of polarity that is generated during embryogenesis, is maintained throughout adult life in the face of constant cell regeneration, and is perturbed in several epithelial-associated diseases. Ths book examines the structural and functional organization of epithelial tissues, as well as the events critical for generating epithelial asymmetry.
