- Extracellular matrix and cell signalling: the dynamic cooperation of integrin, proteoglycan and growth factor receptor. (2011, background): “Laminin consists of three subunits – a , b and g – which come together to form a characteristic cross pattern that can bind to other laminins as well as proteoglycans and other ECM proteins (Colognato & Yurchenco 2000).”
- Angiogenesis: Vasculogenic mimicry and tumour-cell plasticity: lessons from melanoma (2003, background): “Laminins are important components of basement membranes that are involved in regulating neurite outgrowth, tumour metastasis, cell attachment and migration, and angiogenesi”
- Laminin α subunits and their role in C. elegans development (2003, background): “However, the idea that the supramolecular organization of laminin itself has an instructive role has gained support (Colognato and Yurchenco, 2000).”
- Basement membranes: structure, assembly and role in tumour angiogenesis (2003, neutral): “Isoforms of type IV collagen and laminin, although sharing domain homologies, can differ by 30–50% in their amino-acid sequenc”
- The blood–brain and the blood–cerebrospinal fluid barriers: function and dysfunction (2009, background): “Clearly, changes in laminin isoform composition of endothelial basement membranes may alter the inter(within the laminin network) and intra-network interactions (between laminins and other basement membrane components), and thereby the tightness of the network [93, 94].”
- Collagen IV is essential for basement membrane stability but dispensable for initiation of its assembly during early development (2004, background): “Laminins are a family of at least 15 distinct heterotrimeric molecules, which form gel-like aggregates (Colognato and Yurchenco, 2000).”
