Tissue, age, sex, and disease patterns of matrisome expression in GTEx transcriptome data

Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) has historically been explored through proteomic methods. Whether or not global transcriptomics can yield meaningful information on the human matrisome is unknown. Gene expression data from 17,382 samples across 52 tissues, were obtained from the Genotype-Tiss...
