Grhl3 promotes retention of epidermal cells under endocytic stress to maintain epidermal architecture in zebrafish.

Epithelia such as epidermis cover large surfaces and are crucial for survival. Maintenance of tissue homeostasis by balancing cell proliferation, cell size, and cell extrusion ensures epidermal integrity. Although the mechanisms of cell extrusion are better understood, how epithelial cells that roun...
