Extension of a metric defined on a closed subset
If $X$ is any metrizable space, $A$ is a closed subset of $X$.
Let $d$ be a compatible metric on $A$
then $d$ can be extended to a compatible metric on $X$.

I cite (with a correction) the beginning of my paper “On Extension of (Pseudo-)Metrics from Subgroup of Topological Group onto the Group”:
“The problem of extensions of functions from subobjects to objects in
various categories was considered by many authors. The classic
Tietze-Urysohn theorem on extensions of functions from a closed subspace of
a topological space and its generalizations belong to the known results.
Hausdorff [3] showed that every metric from a closed subspace of
a metrizable space can be extended onto the space. Isbell [4, Lemma 1.4] showed that every bounded uniformly continuous pseudometric on a subspace of a uniform space can be extended to a bounded uniformly continuous pseudometric on the whole space. The linear operators extending metrics from a closed subspace of a metrizable space onto the space were considered in, e.g.,
[2,6]”.

Re :"Isbell [4] showed that..." This doesn't look right.What if the subspace is empty? Not all uniform space are metrizable.
