ECM: ECM synthesis
Pathway ID: SIGNOR-EcmSynthesis
Description: The various layers of the extracellular matrix (ECM), which are divided in endomysium, perimysium and epimysium, define the hierarchical organization of skeletal muscle and allow muscle fiber force transmission to tendons and bones. Besides muscle fibers, the complex network of extracellular matrix components embed several structures such as motor neurons, blood vessels, interstitial cell populations and growth factors that are crucial for muscle function, maintenance and repair
