epitelial mesenkymal transition (EMT)

epithelial–mesenchymal transition [ENGLISH]

process by which epithelial cells undergo multiple biochemical, physiological and morphological alterations to lose their cell polarity and cell–cell adhesion and to acquire the motile and invasive properties of Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).

epitelial mesenkymal transition [SWEDISH]

Process i vilken epitelceller genomgår flera biokemiska, fysiologiska och morfologiska förändringar för att förlora sin cellpolaritet och cell-celladhesion och för att förvärva de rörliga och invasiva egenskaperna hos mesenkymala stamceller (MSCs).
