Distribution of collagen XVII in the human brain

open access: yesBrain Research, 2007
We have recently discovered collagen XVII to be present in neurons of the human central nervous system. Collagen XVII has previously been primarily studied in the field of dermatopathology since it is abundantly expressed in the skin, which, like the nervous system, is ectodermal in origin.

Type XVII collagen

open access: yes, 2023
Type XVII collagen, also known as 180kD bullous pemphigoid antigen (BP180), is a type II transmembrane collagen. It is expressed in epithelial hemidesmosomes of skin, colonic mucosa, cornea, brain, kidney, and placenta and has a number of binding ...

Collagen XVII

Dermatologic Clinics, 2010
Collagen XVII has been identified as having a role in inherited junctional epidermolysis bullosa non-Herlitz (JEB-other, MIM #226650). The role of collagen XVII in both autoimmune and genetic blistering disorders demonstrates its relevance to dermal-epidermal adhesion.

Two major 5′-untranslated regions for type XVII collagen mRNA

open access: yesJournal of Dermatological Science, 2006
Background: Type XVII collagen is an important structural component of keratinocyte hemidesmosomes and its functional loss in genetic or autoimmune disease results in blistering of the skin.

Collagenous transmembrane proteins: collagen XVII as a prototype

Matrix Biology, 2003
Collagenous transmembrane proteins are an emerging group of biologically versatile molecules which function as both cell surface receptors and matrix molecules. The seven group members have interesting structural similarities: they are integral membrane proteins in type II orientation and have one or more collagenous domains in the extracellular C ...

Cloning of Hamster Type XVII Collagen cDNA, and Pathogenesis of Anti-Type XVII Collagen Antibody and Complement in Hamster Bullous Pemphigoid [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 2002
Bullous pemphigoid is an inflammatory subepidermal blistering skin disease associated with an IgG autoimmune response to the type XVII collagen. The immunopathologic features of bullous pemphigoid can be reproduced in mice by the passive transfer of anti-type XVII collagen antibodies.

Collagen XVII expression correlates with the invasion and metastasis of colorectal cancer

Human Pathology, 2015
Collagen XVII has a well-established role as an adhesion molecule and a cell surface receptor located in the type I hemidesmosome of stratified epithelia. Its ectodomain is constitutively shed from the cell surface and suggested to regulate the adhesion, migration, and signaling of cutaneous epithelial cells. Collagen XVII was not previously thought to

Collagen XVII is expressed in human CNS neurons

Matrix Biology, 2006
Type XVII collagen (collagen XVII) is a component of hemidesmosomes, which connect epithelial cells to the underlying basement membrane. Previously, an association has been suggested between neurological disorders and the skin disease bullous pemphigoid, where autoimmunity is directed against collagen XVII.
