Abstract

Skeletal stem cells (SSCs) continually replenish mature cell populations to support skeletal homeostasis.SSCs repopulate by self-renewal, have multilineage potential, and are long-lived in vivo.SSCs express specific combinations of cell surface markers that reflect their lineage identity.SSCs adapt to their anatomic environment to support regional differences in skeletal behavior and pathology.
