    network of proteins and molecules outside cells is structured

    Extracellular Matrix Organization (ECM Organization) refers to the process by which the network of proteins and other molecules outside cells is structured and maintained. This matrix provides structural support to tissues, influences cell behavior, and plays a crucial role in wound healing, tissue repair, and overall cellular function. Proper ECM organization is essential for maintaining healthy skin and hair, and disruptions in this process can contribute to conditions like alopecia.
