Scutoids are a geometrical solution to three-dimensional packing of epithelia

Scutoids are a geometrical solution to three-dimensional packing of epithelia

Cell arrangement in the plane of epithelia is well studied, but its three-dimensional packing is largely unknown. Here the authors model curved epithelia and predict that cells adopt a geometrical shape they call “scutoid”, resulting in different apical and basal neighbours, and confirm the presence...
