Cover Story: The skeletal muscle is the core tissue of insulin-mediated glucose uptake within the body. The extracellular matrix (ECM) provides integrity and biochemical signals and plays a crucial role in myogenesis; it also undergoes remodelling upon injury, which is related to insulin resistance (IR). Here, we reviewed the relationship between the ECM, IR, and skeletal muscle and discussed briefly the clinical and non-clinical aspect of ECM remodelling and IR. View the paper here.
