  2. Basement membrane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basement_membrane

    The most notable examples of basement membranes is the glomerular basement membrane of the kidney, by the fusion of the basal lamina from the endothelium of glomerular capillaries and the podocyte basal lamina, [9] and between lung alveoli and pulmonary capillaries, by the fusion of the basal lamina of the lung alveoli and of the basal lamina ...

  3. Basal lamina - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basal_lamina

    The terms “basal lamina” and “basement membrane” were often used interchangeably, until it was realised that all three layers seen with the electron microscope constituted the single layer seen with the light microscope. This has led to considerable terminological confusion; if used, the term “basal lamina” should be confined to its ...

  4. Lamina propria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamina_propria

    The lamina propria is a thin layer of loose (areolar) connective tissue, which lies beneath the epithelium, and together with the epithelium and basement membrane constitutes the mucosa. As its Latin name indicates, it is a characteristic component of the mucosa, or the mucosa's "own special layer."

  5. Junctional epithelium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junctional_epithelium

    The structure of the EA is similar to that of the junction between the epithelium and subadjacent connective tissue; the internal basal lamina consists of a lamina lucida and lamina densa. [5] This internal basal lamina of the EA is continuous with the external basal lamina between the junctional epithelium and the lamina propria at the apical ...

  6. Glomerular basement membrane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glomerular_basement_membrane

    The glomerular basement membrane of the kidney is the basal lamina layer of the glomerulus.The glomerular endothelial cells, the glomerular basement membrane, and the filtration slits between the podocytes perform the filtration function of the glomerulus, separating the blood in the capillaries from the filtrate that forms in Bowman's capsule.

  7. Laminin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laminin

    They are major constituents of the basement membrane, namely the basal lamina (the protein network foundation for most cells and organs). Laminins are vital to biological activity, influencing cell differentiation , migration , and adhesion .

  8. Pain scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pain_scale

    A Chinese pain scale diagram, rating pain on a scale of 1 to 10. A pain scale measures a patient's pain intensity or other features. Pain scales are a common communication tool in medical contexts, and are used in a variety of medical settings. Pain scales are a necessity to assist with better assessment of pain and patient screening.
