The vascular basement membrane in the healthy and pathological brain

Journal of Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism, 2017
The vascular basement membrane contributes to the integrity of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), which is formed by brain capillary endothelial cells (BCECs).

To form and function: on the role of basement membrane mechanics in tissue development, homeostasis and disease [PDF]

Open Biology, 2021
The basement membrane (BM) is a special type of extracellular matrix that lines the basal side of epithelial and endothelial tissues. Functionally, the BM is important for providing physical and biochemical cues to the overlying cells, sculpting the ...

Basement membrane remodelling regulates mouse embryogenesis [PDF]

Nature, 2020
Tissue sculpting during development has been attributed mainly to cellular events through processes such as convergent extension or apical constriction.

Basement membrane and stroke [PDF]

Journal of Cerebral Blood Flow & Metabolism, 2018
Located at the interface of the circulation system and the CNS, the basement membrane (BM) is well positioned to regulate blood–brain barrier (BBB) integrity. Given the important roles of BBB in the development and progression of various neurological disorders, the BM has been hypothesized to contribute to the pathogenesis of these diseases.

Basement membrane perforations guide anterior–posterior axis formation [PDF]

Nature Communications
Establishment of the anterior-posterior (AP) axis is a critical symmetry-breaking event in mammalian development. In mice, this process involves the directed migration of the distal visceral endoderm (DVE).

Structure and Function of Basement Membrane

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1982
Progress has been made in identifying and characterizing basement membrane macromolecules, including type IV collagen, laminin, a heparan sulfate proteogly-can and bullous pemphigoid antigen. Basement membrane contains a unique collagen, type IV collagen,

Vascular Basement Membrane Fragmentation in Keloids and the Expression of Key Basement Membrane Component Genes [PDF]

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open
Background:. Keloids are growing scars that arise from injury to the reticular dermis and subsequent chronic local inflammation. The latter may be promoted by vascular hyperpermeability, which permits the ingress of chronic inflammatory cells/factors ...

Megakaryocytes assemble podosomes that degrade matrix and protrude through basement membrane

Blood, 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 ...
