The matrisome during aging and longevity: a systems-level approach towards defining matreotypes promoting healthy aging

摘要

I thank Cyril Statzer for making the figures, Katrien De Bock, Gabriele Ewald, Nancy Hynes, and members of the Ewald lab for discussion and comments on the manuscript. My inspiration for the term matreotype came from reading about the matrisome by Alexandra Naba and Richard O. Hynes and from Ruedi Aebersold’s definition of proteotype. Furthermore, this work was also inspired by Fritz Verzár (1886–1979), the founder of this journal and a pioneer in investigating collagens in aging research ( ). Standing on the shoulders of giants; I apologize for omitting or not citing individual original work and simply referring to reviews due to reference limitation.
