Laminin subunit alpha-5 (LAMA5) is a vital protein involved in various biological processes. Laminins are a family of proteins that constitute a significant part of basement membranes, crucial for maintaining tissue integrity [1]. LAMA5 acts as a specific receptor for laminin-511 (LM-511), a key component of basement membranes [2]. Research has demonstrated that LAMA5 is essential for regulating dendritic spine structure and ensuring synapse stability in the brain [3]. In mammary glands, the expression of LAMA5 in luminal epithelial cells is necessary for normal growth and development [4]. Additionally, LAMA5 is associated with preserving the integrity of the intestinal basement membrane, emphasizing its role in gastrointestinal health [5].
Moreover, LAMA5 is implicated in various diseases and conditions. It has been linked to promoting tumor cell migration in cancers such as ovarian cancer and colorectal liver metastasis [6][7]. Mutations in the LAMA5 gene have been connected to conditions like infantile nephrotic syndrome and skeletal dysplasia [8][9]. Furthermore, LAMA5 contributes to hair morphogenesis and tooth development [10][11].
Furthermore, LAMA5 is critical for kidney glomerular basement membrane assembly, and its deficiency can lead to conditions like polycystic kidney disease [12][13]. The protein also interacts with other molecules such as integrins and dystroglycans to facilitate basement membrane assembly and tissue polarization [14].
