Megakaryocytes assemble podosomes that degrade matrix and protrude through basement membrane.

open access: yesBlood, 2013
Megakaryocytes give rise to platelets via extension of proplatelet arms, which are released through the vascular sinusoids into the bloodstream. Megakaryocytes and their precursors undergo varying interactions with the extracellular environment in the ...

Long Prehensile Protrusions Can Facilitate Cancer Cell Invasion through the Basement Membrane

open access: yesCells, 2023
A basic process in cancer is the breaching of basement-membrane barriers to permit tissue invasion. Cancer cells can use proteases and physical mechanisms to produce initial holes in basement membranes, but how cells squeeze through this barrier into ...

Mechanisms of Basement Membrane Micro-Perforation during Cancer Cell Invasion into a 3D Collagen Gel

open access: yesGels, 2022
Cancer invasion through basement membranes represents the initial step of tumor dissemination and metastasis. However, little is known about how human cancer cells breach basement membranes.

The prognostic significance of type IV collagen expression in colorectal carcinomas [PDF]

open access: yesArchive of Oncology, 2003
BACKGROUND: Breakdown of basement membrane is believed to be an essential step for tumor invasion and metastasis. The interaction between tumor cells and extracellular matrix can also result in induction of basement membrane synthesis by tumor and ...

Anti-Glomerular Basement Membrane Disease

open access: yesDefinitions, 2020
Anti-glomerular basement membrane disease (anti-GBM) is a rare but well-characterized cause of glomerulonephritis. It is defined by the presence of autoantibodies directed at specific antigenic targets within the glomerular and/or pulmonary basement ...

Basement membrane

open access: yesJournal of clinical pathology. Supplement, 2020
Ubiquitous supportive tissue adjacent to epithelium and around smooth and striated muscle cells. This tissue contains intrinsic macromolecular components such as collagen, laminin, and sulfated proteoglycans.

Anti-Glomerular Basement Membrane Disease in a 10-year-old Child: A Case Report

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2023
Anti-glomerular basement membrane disease is an extremely uncommon entity in children. It has an incidence of 0.5 to 1 per million per year in adults and is even more uncommon in children.

Enhanced structure and function of human pluripotent stem cell‐derived beta‐cells cultured on extracellular matrix

open access: yesStem Cells Translational Medicine, 2021
The differentiation of human stem cells into insulin secreting beta‐like cells holds great promise to treat diabetes. Current protocols drive stem cells through stages of directed differentiation and maturation and produce cells that secrete insulin in ...

Advances in the effect of NC1 domain of type Ⅳ collagen on spermatogenesis and blood-testis barrier [PDF]

open access: yesJichu yixue yu linchuang, 2023
In mammalian testis, the blood-testis barrier (BTB), located near the basement membrane of seminiferous epithelium, is essential for spermatogenesis.
