Document Summary

There are receptors that are anchoring the cells into the extracellular matrix. The epithelial tissue and the connective tissue are organized very differently. Cells are rarely connected and separated by the ecm. Ecm provides resistance to the mechanical stress: because the cytoskeleton of one cell is connected to the cytoskeleton of another cell through anchoring junctions. The tissues will have different properties because of their organization: connective tissue properties are highly dependent on the make up of the ecm, there could be an abundance of a specific type of protein in the ecm. Provides tissues with their different structural properties. Tendons flexible: bone needs to be rigid. Need to be composed of extended fibrous proteins. The ecm isn"t completely static as the tissues grow and adapt the ecm needs to change. Cells can secrete proteins that will change the ecm overtime: example: bones, as people grow bones need to grow, and the tissue needs to be remodeled.
