  • normal activity of Integrin alpha-3
    in continuous_vascular_endothelial_cell_of_blood_vessels_and_lymphatics
    • Together, podocytes and endothelial cells synthesize the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) and assemble the tri-layered glomerular filtration barrier. Major GBM components, such as laminin alpha5, form a structural framework for glomerular development, and both laminin alpha5 and its receptor alpha3 integrin are required for glomerulogenesis. [1]
