Abstract

Little is known about skeletal stem cell populations in vivo. Recently in Cell, Chan et al. (2018) identified a human skeletal stem cell population that can be isolated from multiple human bone locations and is capable of self-renewal and differentiation into bone, cartilage, and stroma, but not fat.
