1. Basement membrane components in the chondrocyte extracellular matrix
Abstract : The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a network of macromolecules which, together with cells, forms the various tissues of all metazoan organisms. Cartilage, in contrast to most other tissues, contains relatively few cells in proportion to the volume occupied by ECM. READ MORE

2. Proteoglycan Lectin Domain Interactions in Extracellular Matrix Assembly
Abstract : This thesis focuses on the C-terminal G3 region of the large aggregating proteoglycans that are found in complex with hyaluronan in the extracellular matrix. The G3 region contains a C-type lectin domain that binds different extracellular matrix proteins playing an integral role in tissue organization during development and remodeling. READ MORE

4. Studies on three matrix molecules in bone and dentin
Abstract : The biomineralization of bone and dentin is a complex and dynamic process, involving the formation of an organic framework in which mineral crystals are deposited. The noncollagenous proteins (NCPs) of the organic phase play a central role in the extracellular matrix (ECM) organization and mineralization regulation. READ MORE

5. Cell-matrix interactions : master regulators of cancer cell fate?
Abstract : The development and homeostasis of a multicellular organism require fundamental biological processes like cell proliferation, cell differentiation, cell migration, and controlled cell death. The extracellular matrix (ECM) guides many of these functions, via cell-matrix interactions that function as mechanical and biochemical signaling hubs. READ MORE
