Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Signals derived from basal lamina components are important for developing three-dimensional architecture of epithelial tissues. Laminins consisting of α, β, and γ subunits in basal lamina play pivotal roles in the formation and maintenance of epithelial tissue structures. However, it remains unclear which laminin isoforms transmit signals and how epithelial cells receive them to regulate multiple developmental processes. In three-dimensional culture of a liver progenitor cell line, Hepatic Progenitor Cells Proliferating on Laminin (HPPL), the cells establish apicobasal polarity and form cysts with a central lumen. Neutralizing antibody against β1 integrin blocked the formation and maintenance of the cyst structure, indicating that β1 integrin signaling was necessary throughout the morphogenesis. Although the addition of α1-containing laminin, a ligand of β1 integrin, induced cyst formation, it was dispensable for the maintenance of the cyst, suggesting that HPPL produces another ligand for β1 integrin to maintain the structure. Indeed, we found that HPPL produced α5-containing laminin, and siRNA against laminin α5 partially inhibited the lumen formation. In fetal liver, p75NTR + periportal fibroblasts and bile duct epithelial cells, known as cholangiocytes, expressed α1- and α5-containing laminins, respectively. In laminin α5 KO liver, cholangiocytes normally emerged, but the number of bile ducts was decreased. These results suggest that α1-containing laminin is sufficient as a component of the basal lamina for the commitment of bipotential liver progenitors to cholangiocytes and the apicobasal polarization, whereas α5-containing laminin is necessary for the formation of mature duct structures. Thus, α1- and α5-containing laminins differentially regulate the sequential events to form epithelial tissues via β1 integrin signals.
