Cellular aspect ratio and cell division mechanics underlie the patterning of cell progeny in diverse mammalian epithelia

Cell division is essential to expand, shape, and replenish epithelia. In the adult small intestine, cells from a common progenitor intermix with other lineages, whereas cell progeny in many other epithelia form contiguous patches. The mechanisms that generate these distinct patterns of progeny are p...
