Basal cells contain gap junctions for cell communication, desmosomes for cell-to-cell attachment, hemidesmosomes for connecting with the basal membrane, and an extracellular matrix. Keratinocytes ...

However, on the basal side, the basement membrane blocks their contact with other cells. Contrary to this general understanding, this study revealed that, unlike in other animals, the ovarian ...

Interestingly, in the 24-week model surface, α1(IV) and α2(IV) collagen chains, which are normally found in the basement membrane of the native limbus and conjunctiva, and not in the cornea ...
