Apoptosis (programmed cell death) plays a major role in development and tissue regeneration. Basement membrane extracellular matrix (ECM), but not fibronectin or collagen, was s...
Here we describe a novel collagen belonging to the class of von Willebrand factor A (VWA) domain-containing proteins. This novel protein was identified by screening the EST data...
Rapid progress has been made in the understanding of the molecular interactions that result in cell adhesion. Many adhesive proteins present in extracellular matrices and in the...
The distribution of basement membrane glycoproteins, fibronectin, laminin, and type IV collagen was studied in experimentally induced skin blisters in which the epidermis is sep...
The fibrous collagens form the structural basis of all mammalian connective tissues, including the vasculature, dermis, bones, tendons, cartilage, and those tissues that support...
