Cell Biology: Pardon the Intrusion.

Abstract
Whilst tissues form during development, some cells are extruded from epithelial monolayers. Rather than dying or differentiating, a new study shows that displaced cells can reintegrate after dividing. Surprisingly, this 'intrusion' pathway shares common features with axon guidance.
