MeSH definition : Orientation of intracellular structures especially with respect to the apical and
basolateral domains of the plasma membrane. Polarized cells must direct proteins from
the Golgi apparatus to the appropriate domain since tight junctions prevent proteins
from diffusing between the two domains.;
