Type VII collagen in Alport syndrome [PDF]
Absence or segmental distribution of the alpha5(IV) collagen chain along the epidermal basement membrane (EBM) is diagnostic of X-linked Alport syndrome (X-AS), but the typical morphologic alterations usually observed along the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) are lacking. However, several differences in protein composition exist between GBM and EBM,

Cylindroma Overexpresses Collagen VII, the Major Anchoring Fibril Protein [PDF]
The cell clusters of the human adnexal tumor, cylindroma, are surrounded by an unusual, thick, unorganized basement membrane-like zone in vivo. Ultrastructural analysis of this electron-dense zone revealed recesses that contained numerous anchoring fibrils.
