Abstract: Apical microvilli are critical for the homeostasis of transporting epithelia, yet mechanisms that control the assembly and morphology of these protrusions remain poorly understood. Previous studies in intestinal epithelial cell lines suggested a role for… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0189970

Abstract: Symmetry is rarely found on cellular surfaces. An exception is the brush border of microvilli, which are essential for the proper function of transport epithelia. In a healthy intestine, they appear densely packed as a… read more here.
