What the tool is doing

This is the central topic of the review, covering how extracellular matrices are remodeled in development and disease.

Source 2DOIPubMed

What problem it solves

It provides a conceptual frame for linking matrix degradation, crosslinking, and signaling to tissue morphogenesis and pathology.

Source 2DOIPubMed

What it does not solve

The supplied evidence does not support extraction of specific experimental protocols or validated tool performance from this review alone.

Alternatives

Adjacent organizing concepts in the supplied summary include matrisome annotation, protease-centered remodeling, and basement membrane dynamics.

Linked Claims

Claim 1mechanistic modelsupports2026Source 1DOIPubMed

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.

Claim 3translational strategysupports2026Source 1DOIPubMed

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.
