Journal ArticleDOI
Kalinin: an epithelium-specific basement membrane adhesion molecule that is a component of anchoring filaments.
TL;DR: Findings strongly suggest that this antigen is intimately involved in attachment of keratinocytes to the basement membrane, and proposes the name "kalinin" for this new molecule.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new nomenclature for the laminins.

TL;DR: The authors have adopted a new nomenclature for the laminins, in which the previous A, B1 and B2 chains, and their isoforms, are alpha, beta and gamma, followed by an arabic numeral to identify the isoform.
Journal ArticleDOI
Type VII collagen is a major structural component of anchoring fibrils.
TL;DR: The construction and characterization of a murine monoclonal antibody specific for type VII collagen is reported, which demonstrates metal deposition upon anchoring fibrils at both ends of these structures, as predicted by the location of the epitope ontype VII collagen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wnt signaling maintains the hair-inducing activity of the dermal papilla
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that specific Wnts, but not Sonic hedgehog (Shh), maintain anagen-phase gene expression in vitro and hair inductive activity in a skin reconstitution assay.
Journal ArticleDOI
Type VII collagen forms an extended network of anchoring fibrils.
TL;DR: Observations support the hypothesis that anchoring fibrils provide additional adhesion of the lamina densa to its underlying stroma, and lead to the postulation of a multilayered network of anchoringfibrils and anchoring plaques which underlies the basal lamina of several anchored fibril-containing tissues.
