"This is one of 31 human diseases that occur because of genetic defects in the body's extracellular matrix and basement membrane proteins, " explains the study's senior author Raghu Kalluri, PhD ...

Aaron Fidler and his colleagues at Vanderbilt University report that the protein collagen IV—a “molecular glue” that binds cells together—was one of the earliest components of the extracellular matrix ...

Basement membrane is a thin layer of extracellular matrix that surrounds most animal tissues, and acts as a physical barrier, while still permitting nutrient exchange, the authors explained.
