Abstract | The luminal epithelium of the mammary gland is organized into monolayers; however, it originates from multilayered terminal end buds (TEBs) during development. Although apoptosis provides a plausible mechanism for cavitation of the ductal lumen, it doesn't account for ductal elongation behind TEBs. Spatial calculations in mice suggest that most TEB cells integrate into the outermost luminal layer to generate elongation. We developed a quantitative cell culture assay that models intercalation into epithelial monolayers. We found that tight junction proteins play a key role in this process. ZO-1 puncta form at the new cellular interface and resolve into a new boundary as intercalation proceeds. Deleting ZO-1 suppresses intercalation both in culture and in cells transplanted into mammary glands via intraductal injection. Cytoskeletal rearrangements at the interface are critical for intercalation. These data identify luminal cell rearrangements necessary for mammary development and suggest a mechanism for integration of cells into an existing monolayer. |
