integrins
Cell membrane is the outer barrier of cell which seperates it from the extracellular matrix.
A fibroblast is a type of cell that is responsible for making the extracellular matrix and collagen.
cell type and amount of extracellular matrix
Collagen is the connective tissue.
they have functional connections with the cytoskeleton inside the cell.
The cells are often bound to the extracellular matrix by proteins in the plasma membrane. The extracellular matrix is the structural support of tissue.
Typically when the word "matrix" is used in cytological or histological context it referes to the extracellular matrix, which is the area in a tissue not occupied by cells, or the area between cells.
The Extracellular Matrix
The body is made up of three major extracellular materials. These materials are; body fluids, cell secretions and extracellular matrix.
