abstract：:Fibromodulin and lumican are closely related members of the extracellular matrix leucine-rich repeat glycoprotein/proteoglycan family. Similar to decorin, another member of this protein family, they bind to fibrillar collagens and function in the assembly of the collagen network in connective tissues. We have studied ...
