Differential expression of type IV collagen isoforms in rat glomerular endothelial and mesangial cells

Type IV collagen, which is encoded by six genetically distinct α-chains (α1–α6), is a major component of the kidney glomerulus. The α1(IV) and α2(IV) chains are present predominantly in the mesangial matrix, whereas the α3(IV), α4(IV), and α5(IV) chains are localized almost exclusively to the glomer...
