Modelling variability and heterogeneity of EMT scenarios highlights nuclear positioning and protrusions as main drivers of extrusion

The paper models EMT scenarios to show nuclear positioning and protrusions drive extrusion, suggesting a non-linear EMT process.

Interkinetic nuclear movements promote apical expansion in pseudostratified epithelia at the expense of apicobasal elongation

The paper uses a 2D agent-based model to study interkinetic nuclear movements in pseudostratified epithelia, showing they drive apical expansion and suggest apicobasal elongation requires a specific program.
