The extracellular matrix (ECM) is the noncellular scaffolding component present within all tissues and organs. It provides crucial biochemical and biomechanical cues to instruct cellular behavior and has been shown to be under circadian clock regulation, a highly conserved cell-intrinsic timekeeping mechanism that has evolved with the 24-hour rhythmic environment. Aging is a major risk factor for many diseases, including cancer, fibrosis, and neurodegenerative disorders. Both aging and our modern 24/7 society disrupt circadian rhythms, which could contribute to altered ECM homeostasis. Understanding the daily dynamics of ECM and how this mechanism changes with age will have a profound impact on tissue health, disease prevention, and improving treatments. Maintaining rhythmic oscillations has been proposed as a hallmark of health. On the other hand, many hallmarks of aging turn out to be key regulators of circadian timekeeping mechanisms. In this review, we summarize new work linking the ECM with circadian clocks and tissue aging. We discuss how the changes in the biomechanical and biochemical properties of ECM during aging may contribute to circadian clock dysregulation. We also consider how the dampening of clocks with age could compromise the daily dynamic regulation of ECM homeostasis in matrix-rich tissues. This review aims to encourage new concepts and testable hypotheses about the two-way interactions between circadian clocks and ECM in the context of aging.
