Beta4 integrin-dependent formation of polarized three-dimensional architecture confers resistance to apoptosis in normal and malignant mammary epithelium

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the molecular mechanism whereby malignant and nonmalignant mammary epithelial cells become insensitive to apoptosis and showed that regardless of growth status, the formation of polarized, three-dimensional structures driven by basement membrane confers protection against apoptosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Desmosomes and hemidesmosomes: structure and function of molecular components.

TL;DR: A more active role in transmitting signals that control morphogenesis during development and possibly even regulate cell growth and differentiation are being defined for cytoplasmic and membrane components of these junctions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Processing of laminin-5 and its functional consequences : role of plasmin and tissue-type plasminogen activator

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that laminin-5 is a multifunctional protein that can act under certain circumstances as a motility and at other times as an adhesive factor.
