Our skin protects us from everyday mechanical stresses, like friction, cuts, and impacts. A key part of this ...

Proteoglycans are ubiquitous molecules that function as critical components of the extracellular matrix. These proteins are composed of glycosaminoglycan chains that are covalently attached to a ...

The field of dystroglycan (DG) research has garnered significant attention due to its critical role as a non-integrin adhesion complex that bridges the extracellular matrix and the cytoskeleton. DG's ...

The development could help scientists develop patient-specific treatments and one day offer a lab-grown lung transplant option.

Researchers at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) have discovered a specialized population of neutrophils in the skin that produce extracellular matrix components, helping ...

Biofilms of the fungus Candida albicans produce extracellular matrix that confers such properties as adherence and drug resistance. Our prior studies indicate that the matrix is complex, with major ...

Keloids are raised, overgrown scars that can develop after skin injuries or surgery, often extending beyond the original ...
