Provided here are methods of modulating vascular permeability by changing the mechanical properties of extracellular matrices (ECM) and methods of treatment of diseases, conditions and symptoms related to vascular permeability such as pulmonary edema and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The modulation can be increasing or decreasing vascular permeability. Vascular leakage can be normalized by increasing or decreasing ECM stiffness depending on the baseline mechanical properties of the tissue or organ. Vascular permeability is altered by changing the mechanical properties of ECM by administering a lysyl oxidase modulating (LOX) agent.
