PP2A in LepR+ mesenchymal stem cells contributes to embryonic and postnatal endochondral ossification through Runx2 dephosphorylation

Yen et al use tissue-specific PP2A knockout mice to show that PP2A in LepR positive mesenchymal stem cells positively regulates endochondral ossification. They find that PP2A dephosphorylates Runx2 and BRD4, thereby playing a major role in positively and negatively regulating osteogenesis and adipog...
