Across organs, altered matrix composition, excessive crosslinking, and stiffness-dependent mechanotransduction including integrin-FAK and YAP/TAZ pathways form a self-reinforcing cycle that sustains fibroinflammation, myofibroblast persistence, and progressive tissue dysfunction.

Translational ECM-targeted strategies focus on modulating ECM synthesis and crosslinking, normalizing rather than ablating matrix architecture, and targeting ECM-cell signaling axes in combination with anti-fibrotic, cytotoxic, or immunotherapeutic regimens.

In tumors, aligned and crosslinked extracellular matrix promotes invasion, immune evasion, and therapy resistance and shapes perfusion and drug penetration.

The review explicitly emphasizes matrix metalloproteinases, ADAMTS proteases, lysyl oxidase-mediated crosslinking, collagen/integrin mechanosignaling, discoidin domain receptors, basement membrane dynamics, and growth-factor/proteoglycan regulation.
