Meanings of basal lamina in English

A basal lamina surrounded each myelinated axon and fascicle of unmyelinated axons.

At 24 h the tegument in some areas showed an exposed basal lamina.

Ultrastructurally, a network of basal lamina-like materials lined with endothelial cells was evident.

Regular caveolae were detected along the basal lamina in two patients by electron microscopy.

Despite this, both neuronal-epithelial cell interactions involve similarly sized discontinuities in the basal lamina.

A basal lamina and microfibrils were detected just beneath the newly formed vascular endothelial cells.

Pathological changes in midgut epithelial cells sometimes included loss of brush border and basal lamina integrity.

A large amount of extracellular matrix of basal lamina-like material was observed in the thick tissue.

Negative immunolabelling for laminin antigen supported the absence of evidence of a basal lamina on ultrastructural examination.

A single fiber, the minimal functional unit of skeletal muscle, retains skeletal myoblasts beneath the basal lamina.

Blood-meal-induced microperforations in the virus-impenetrable basal lamina that surrounds the midgut provide a mechanism for enhanced virus escape.

It is generally accepted that corneal stromal nerves penetrate the epithelial basal lamina giving rise to intra-epithelial nerves.

The corneas healed satisfactorily, with normal formation of basal lamina and hemidesmosomal attachments visible in 14-week histologic specimens.

They were covered by Schwann cell basal lamina and focally protruded from the outer cytoplasmic Schwann cell compartment.

Result(s): Transmission electron microscopy observations showed an uneven profile of the basal lamina with a variable thickness.

Treatment with trypsin and pancreatin was used to digest the basal lamina so as to separate epithelium from mesenchyme.
