Working model for Rho function in remodeling, formed epithelia. Rho regulates apical cell tension and AJs independently. Rho sustains apical cell tension mainly through Rok, but Dia can cooperate with Rok for this role. Rho maintains formed AJs by inhibiting DE-cadherin endocytosis, possibly by inhibiting Cdc42/Par6 activity.
