## Abstract The basement membrane (BM) protein lamininβ332 (Lm332) (lamininβ5) has unique activity and structure as compared with other laminins: it strongly promotes cellular adhesion and migration, and its Ξ±3, Ξ²3, and Ξ³2 chains are all truncated in their Nβterminal regions (short arms). In the pr
Tooth morphogenesis is regulated by epithelial-mesenchymal interactions mediated by the basement membrane (BM). Laminins are major glycoprotein components of the BMs, which are involved in several cellular activities. The expression and localization of the β£3, β€3, and β₯2 laminin-5 subunits have been
Cell-matrix interactions contribute to regulating the adhesion, growth, migration, and differentiation of epithelial intestinal cells. Alterations in matrix components and their cellular receptors have been found in tumours but their specific roles remain unclear. The tissue patterns of laminin-5 an
