Localization and possible functions of Drosophila septins.

abstract：:Normal epithelial cells undergo apoptosis when they are denied contact with the extracellular matrix, in a process termed "anoikis." Conversely, malignant epithelial cells typically acquire anchorage independence, i.e., the capacity to survive and grow in the absence of matrix interaction. Here we asked the question w...
