Embryonic Compaction

Embryonic Compaction is a developmental process in early mammalian embryogenesis characterized by the maximization of cell-cell adhesion and the reorganization of blastomeres into a tightly packed morula through cytoskeletal rearrangements and the establishment of adherens junctions.
