In the ten-year interval since the first edition of this volume
went to press, our knowledge of extracellular matrix (ECM) function
and structure has enor mously increased. Extracellular matrix and
cell-matrix interaction are now routine topics in the meetings and
annual reviews sponsored by cell biology societies. Research in
molecular biology has so advanced the number of known matrix
molecules and the topic of gene structure and regulation that we
won dered how best to incorporate the new material. For example, we
deliberated over the inclusion of chapters on molecular genetics.
We decided that with judicious editing we could present the recent
findings in molecular biology within the same cell biology
framework that was used for the first edition, using three broad
headings: what is extracellular matrix, how is it made, and what
does it do for cells? Maintaining control over the review of
literature on the subject of ECM was not always an easy task, but
we felt it was essential to production of a highly readable volume,
one compact enough to serve the the student as an introduction and
the investigator as a quick update on graduate the important recent
discoveries. The first edition of this volume enjoyed con hope the
reader finds this edition equally useful. siderable success; we D.
