Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The basal lamina (choose all that apply)
A
acts as a filter
B
is highly cellular
C
is adjacent to the basal surface of the epithelium
D
acts as scaffolding for wound repair
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Scaffold structure is a novel carrier for cell and drug delivery that enhances wound healing through differentiation of endothelial and epithelial cells and production of angiogenic growth factors in cutaneous wounds.

Detailed explanation-2: -MSCs normalize inflammation and promote wound healing through secretion of PGE-2 (61). Lastly, MSCs also possess bactericidal properties by secretion of antimicrobial factors and by increasing the process of phagocytosis in wound healing (62).

Detailed explanation-3: -Functions of the basal lamina. The basal lamina provides support to the overlying epithelium, limits contact between epithelial cells and the other cell types in the tissue and acts as a filter allowing only water and small molecules to pass through.

Detailed explanation-4: -Hemostasis. Inflammation. Proliferation. Maturation.
