Advances in the effect of NC1 domain of type Ⅳ collagen on spermatogenesis and blood-testis barrier [PDF]
In mammalian testis, the blood-testis barrier (BTB), located near the basement membrane of seminiferous epithelium, is essential for spermatogenesis.

The time-dependent rearrangement of the epithelial basement membrane in human skin wounds [PDF]
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.

Genetic Suppression of Basement Membrane Defects in Caenorhabditis elegans by Gain of Function in Extracellular Matrix and Cell-Matrix Attachment Genes. [PDF]
Basement membranes are extracellular matrices essential for embryonic development in animals. Peroxidasins are extracellular peroxidases implicated in the unique sulfilimine cross-links between type IV basement membrane collagens. Loss of function in the

Atypical basement membranes and basement membrane diversity – what is normal anyway?
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 ...

Isolation, characterization, and substrate properties of the external limiting membrane from the avian embryonic optic tectum [PDF]
The external limiting membrane of the avian embryonic optic tectum is isolated by mechanically separating the neuronal mesencephalon from the overlying mesenchymal tissue.

The blood labyrinthine barrier in the human normal and Meniere's disease macula utricle. [PDF]
The ultrastructural organization of the blood labyrinthine barrier (BLB) was investigated in the human vestibular endorgan, the utricular macula, using postmortem specimens from individuals with documented normal auditory and vestibular function and ...
