The time-dependent rearrangement of the epithelial basement membrane in human skin wounds [PDF]
, 1992 In 62 human skin wounds (surgical wounds, stab wounds and lacerations after surgical treatment) we analyzed the immunohistochemical localization of collagen IV in the epithelial basement membrane.

"Caenorhabditis elegans" TEN-1 is essential for basement membrane function [PDF]
, 2008 Teneurins are large transmembrane proteins playing fundamental roles in development. They are highly expressed in the developing and adult nervous system in distinct layers, often in interconnected regions of the brain, where they were proposed to have ...

Atypical basement membranes and basement membrane diversity – what is normal anyway?
Journal of Cell Science, 2020 The evolution of basement membranes (BMs) played an essential role in the organization of animal cells into tissues and diversification of body plans. The archetypal BM is a compact extracellular matrix polymer containing laminin, nidogen, collagen IV ...

The Bi-Functional Organization of Human Basement Membranes [PDF]
, 2013 The current basement membrane (BM) model proposes a single-layered extracellular matrix (ECM) sheet that is predominantly composed of laminins, collagen IVs and proteoglycans.

Basement membrane-rich Organoids with functional human blood vessels are permissive niches for human breast cancer metastasis [PDF]
, 2013 Metastasic breast cancer is the leading cause of death by malignancy in women worldwide. Tumor metastasis is a multistep process encompassing local invasion of cancer cells at primary tumor site, intravasation into the blood vessel, survival in systemic ...

Case Report of a Patient with Goodpasture’s Syndrome Who Relapsed While on Hemodialysis
Turkish Journal of Nephrology, 2019 Goodpasture’s syndrome is a rare autoimmune disease in which anti-glomerular basement membrane antibodies damage the glomerular and alveolar basement membrane. Its relapse is very rare, compared to other pulmonary-renal syndromes.

Tendon is covered by a basement membrane epithelium that is required for cell retention and the prevention of adhesion formation [PDF]
, 2011 The ability of tendons to glide smoothly during muscle contraction is impaired after injury by fibrous adhesions that form between the damaged tendon surface and surrounding tissues. To understand how adhesions form we incubated excised tendons in fibrin

Investigations on the functions ot "ten-1" during embryonic development in "Caenorhabditis" elegans [PDF]
, 2011 Teneurins are a family of phylogenetically conserved proteins. Their most prominent site of expression is the nervous system. Investigations on the expression pattern in vertebrates and invertebrates also revealed the importance for teneurins at sites of
