Here is the translation of Ik Onkar song from movie Rang De Basanti. There is but one God. True is His Name, creative His personality and immortal His form. He is without fear sans enmity, unborn and self-illumined. By the Guru's grace He is obtained.
Overview. The Extracellular Matrix (ECM) is a complex structural system that supports and protects animal cells, and is often referred to as the connective tissue. The meshlike structure of the ECM is composed of mainly from collagen proteins connected to glycoprotein.
ECM components are made inside the cell, secreted, and assemble into higher order structures outside the cell. In connective tissue, extracellular matrix is important and carries the mechanical load. In epithelia, ECM is not important for this function. Cells are directly joined to one another (membrane junctions) and carry the mechanical load themselves. -----ECM more important for holding epithelial tissues together.
