Junctional Maturation

Junctional Maturation is a biological process constituting the progressive stabilization and functional specialization of cell-cell adhesion complexes, particularly adherens junctions, through the spatiotemporal recruitment of cadherin-catenin complexes and cytoskeletal adaptors, thereby establishing mature epithelial junctional integrity.
