hemidesmosome

A specialized junctional complex that anchors the basal membrane of an epithelial cell to the underlying basement membrane.
Noun
pl: hemidesmosomes

This term is a highly specialized biological descriptor used almost exclusively in histology, cell biology, and dermatology. It describes a "half-desmosome," which differs from a full desmosome in that it connects a cell to an external matrix rather than connecting two adjacent cells together.

Because it refers to a microscopic structural unit, the word is used in a clinical or academic register. It is typically found in research papers discussing skin blistering diseases, such as bullous pemphigoid, where the integrity of these junctions is compromised.
