"The extracellular matrix consists of a three-dimensional macromolecular non-cellular framework built of different matrix molecules. The matrix provides various functions such as structural support to the surrounding cells and separation of different tissues as well as control of intercellular communication, signal transduction and regulatory effect on cellular processes including growth, adhesion, migration, apoptosis or differentiation. Subtypes of the extracellular matrix include the interstitial matrix and the pericellular matrix as the basement membrane 1-4."
"Various cell types contribute to the development and the constant remodelling of the extracellular matrix e.g. fibroblasts, osteoblasts or chondrocytes 1-3."
"The extracellular space refers to the space outside the cells and is occupied by fluid and a vast range of metabolites, ions, proteins, lipids and other biomolecules. The space frames the structure of its respective tissue, like the extracellular matrix, affecting cellular function such as extracellular vesicles, cytokines, chemokines, hormones and growth factors, or dealing with tasks outside the cells such as various enzymes or proteases."
