Pseudostratified epithelia - cell biology, diversity and roles in organ formation at a glance.
Journal of Cell Science 2017 June 2
Pseudostratified epithelia (PSE) are widespread and diverse tissue arrangements, and many PSE are organ precursors in a variety of organisms. While cells in PSE, like other epithelial cells, feature apico-basal polarity, they generally are more elongated and their nuclei are more densely packed within the tissue. In addition, nuclei in PSE undergo interkinetic nuclear migration (IKNM, also referred to as INM), whereby all mitotic events occur at the apical surface of the elongated epithelium. Previous reviews have focused on the links between IKNM and the cell cycle, as well as the relationship between IKNM and neurogenesis, which will not be elaborated on here. Instead, in this Cell Science at a Glance article and the accompanying poster, I will discuss the cell biology of PSEs, highlighting how differences in PSE architecture could influence cellular behaviour, especially IKNM. Furthermore, I will summarize what we know about the links between apical mitosis in PSE and tissue integrity and maturation.
