Abstract excerpt
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a highly dynamic, well-organized acellular network of tissue-specific biomolecules, that can be divided into structural or core ECM proteins and ECM-associated proteins. The ECM serves as a blueprint for organ development and function and, when structurally altered through mutation, altered expression, or degradation, can lead to debilitating syndromes that often affect one...
