PERIOSTEAL SKELETAL STEM CELLS IN BONE REPAIR

摘要

Embodiments of the disclosure encompass methods and compositions for bone repair and bone injury healing. In some embodiments, the bone repair and bone injury healing utilizes the enhancement of migration of certain types of bone cells upon stimulation by a particular cytokine. In specific embodiments, migration of periosteal skeletal stem cells upon delivery of CCL5 and/or TNFα is enhanced and fosters bone repair and healing.
