Basal lamina components in experimentally induced skin blisters

Abstract

The distribution of basement membrane glycoproteins, fibronectin, laminin, and type IV collagen was studied in experimentally induced skin blisters in which the epidermis is separated from the dermis through the lamina lucida part of basal lamina. Fibronectin was found surrounding the blister cavity and in a primary covering formed on the bottom of the blister. Neither laminin nor type IV collagen were incorporated into this clot-like matrix. The layer of laminin found in normal epidermal-dermal junction was found to be cleaved by the blistering method, whereas all type IV collagen antigenicity was confined to the base of the blister presumably due to its location in the lamina densa part of the basal lamina. No interstitial collagens were found in the separated epidermis in accordance with previous ultrastructural evidence. These studies support the proposed role of laminin in the adhesion of epidermal cells to basement membrane collagen.

Basement Membranes

Basement membranes are thin, specialized extracellular matrices surrounding most tissues in all metazoans. Here is the latest research on basement membranes.

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
