Secreted frizzled related-protein 2 (Sfrp2) deficiency decreases adult skeletal stem cell function in mice

Abstract In a previous transcriptomic study of human bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs, also known as bone marrow-derived “mesenchymal stem cells”), SFRP2 was highly over-represented in a subset of multipotent BMSCs (skeletal stem cells, SSCs), which recreate a bone/marrow organ in an in vivo ectopic...
