Publication Link Summary of findings
17000025 The major contributions of laminin-5 to the resistance of the epidermis against frictional stress but also for basement membrane regeneration and repair of damaged skin are reflected by the phenotype of Herlitz junctional epidermolysis bullosa.
17482449 LM-332 is a crucial motility-promoting factor for B-CLL lymphocytes and is a potential constituent favoring the dissemination of B-CLL lymphocytes through vascular basement membranes and possibly lymph node compartments.
17888902 The results indicate that glioma cells secrete alpha2-, alpha4- and alpha5-laminins and that alpha3- and alpha5-laminins, selectively promote glioma cell migration and identify alpha3beta1 as the predominant integrin and laminin receptor in glioma cells.
16870608 Ln-5 is an important regulator of ADPKD cell proliferation and cystogenesis; Ln-5 gamma(2) chain and Ln-5-alpha(6)beta(4) integrin interaction both contribute to these phenotypic changes
16723698 laminin 5 and p16INK4A have roles in wound healing and senescence
15967115 prostate cancer cells expressing high levels of MT1-MMP have increased invasive potential through their ability to degrade and invade Ln-10 barriers
14612440 proteolytic processing of laminin-5 influences its interaction with alpha3beta1 integrin
15302884 cAMP-Epac-Rap1 pathway regulates cell spreading and cell adhesion to laminin-5 through the alpha3beta1 integrin but not the alpha6beta4 integrin
16226104 An increase was noted in LAMA5 immunostaining in the dilated muscle of the ganglionic bowel upstream the distal aganglionic region in a group of Hirschprung disease patients.
12682087 Our results elucidate a mechanism whereby mesangial cells organize the glomerular capillaries by adhering to the G domain of laminin alpha5 in the glomerular basement membrane.
