The extracellular matrix in development [PDF]
Development, 2020 As the crucial non-cellular component of tissues, the extracellular matrix (ECM) provides both physical support and signaling regulation to cells. Some ECM molecules provide a fibrillar environment around cells, while others provide a sheet-like basement

The extracellular matrix at a glance [PDF]
Journal of Cell Science, 2010 ![Figure][1] The extracellular matrix (ECM) is the non-cellular component present within all tissues and organs, and provides not only essential physical scaffolding for the cellular constituents but also initiates crucial biochemical and biomechanical cues that are required for ...

Extracellular Vesicles as Regulators of the Extracellular Matrix
Bioengineering, 2023 Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small membrane-bound vesicles secreted into the extracellular space by all cell types. EVs transfer their cargo which includes nucleic acids, proteins, and lipids to facilitate cell-to-cell communication.

The extracellular matrix and the immune system: A mutually dependent relationship
Science, 2023 For decades, immunologists have studied the role of circulating immune cells in host protection, with a more recent appreciation of immune cells resident within the tissue microenvironment and the intercommunication between nonhematopoietic cells and ...

Removal of extracellular human amyloid beta aggregates by extracellular proteases in C. elegans
eLife, 2023 The amyloid beta (Aβ) plaques found in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients’ brains contain collagens and are embedded extracellularly. Several collagens have been proposed to influence Aβ aggregate formation, yet their role in clearance is unknown.

Targeting extracellular matrix stiffness and mechanotransducers to improve cancer therapy
Journal of Hematology & Oncology, 2022 Cancer microenvironment is critical for tumorigenesis and cancer progression. The extracellular matrix (ECM) interacts with tumor and stromal cells to promote cancer cells proliferation, migration, invasion, angiogenesis and immune evasion.
