About this position

Background Ageing causes increased frailty and higher rates of disease. As societies age, this presents an enormous public health challenge, making understanding the ageing process critically important to develop ways to promote age-related health. One prominent characteristic of ageing is altered extracellular matrix (ECM) structure and function. Changes in ECM properties have been implicated in age-related conditions including cancer, hypertension and stroke, suggesting that therapies targeting the ECM hold high potential to treat age-associated disease. Another cause of age-related frailty
