Solution Summary

The cell to cell contact computing is examined.The type of cell to cell contact which is most likely responsible for this coupling is determined.

Solution Preview

All epithelia act as selectively permeable barriers, with tight junctions blocking diffusion of membrane proteins between apical (top) and basolateral (sides at the bottom) domains of the plasma membrane and sealing neighbouring cells together so that watersoluble molecules cannot leak between cells. Cell-cell contact ...
