Epithelial cells release adenosine to promote local TNF production in response to polarity disruption
Epithelial stress can disrupt polarity and activate TNF and JNK signalling that contributes to inflammation and cell damage. Here, the authors show that disruption of apico-basal polarity leads to adenosine release, activating TNF and JNK and driving an inflammatory response during chronic stress.
