General description

Laminin alpha 5 (α5) is a member of the laminin family of extracellular matrix glycoproteins. Laminin’s are important in cell migration, differentiation and in tumor cell incursion. Research shows that laminin alpha 5 may be an early marker of sexual differentiation. In rat, the laminin alpha 5 chain seems to halt expression in the basement membrane of Sertoli cells when secretion of AMH begins but expression increases two weeks after birth when AMH secretion stops. Laminin alpha 5 shows up early during lung development in mice. It has also been linked to inflammatory cell chemotaxis and metalloproteinase activity and may play a role in creating and sustaining mucosal patterns of the mouse small intestine.

Despite the advancements in skin bioengineering, 3D skin constructs are still produced as flat tissues with open edges, disregarding the fully enclosed geometry of human skin. Therefore, they do not effectively cover anatomically complex body sites, e.g., hands. Here, we

Psoriasis is a complex chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by epidermal thickening on the basis of increased keratinocyte proliferation and insufficient apoptosis. Laminins are important components of the basement membrane (BM) and impact on epidermal keratinocyte growth/apoptosis. Although several laminins

Daily sunlight exposure damages the epidermal basement membrane (BM) and disrupts epidermal homeostasis. Inter-follicular epidermal stem cells (IFE-SCs) regulate epidermal proliferation and differentiation, which supports epidermal homeostasis. Here, we examine how photoaging affects the function of IFE-SCs and we identify
