Planar Polarization in Embryonic Epidermis Orchestrates Global Asymmetric Morphogenesis of Hair Follicles

Mammalian body hairs align along the anterior-posterior axis and offer a striking but poorly understood example of global cell polarization, a phenomenon known as planar cell polarity (PCP). We’ve discovered that during embryogenesis, dramatic changes in cell shape and cytoskeletal polarization occu...
