Abstract
The human skeleton is renewed and regenerated throughout life, by a cellular process known as bone remodeling. Stem cells are clono-genic cells that are capable of differentiation into multiple mature cell types (multipotency), and simultaneously replenishing stem cell pool (self-renewal), which allows them to sustain tissue development and maintenance. Circulating mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs), are mobile adult stem cells with specific gene expression profiling, as well as enhanced mitochondrial remodeling as a promising source for personalized cell and gene therapy. A global LGR5-associated genetic interaction network highlights the functional organization and molecular phenotype of circulating MSCs.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Human Genetics is an international journal publishing articles on human genetics, including medical genetics and human genome analysis. It covers all aspects of human genetics, including molecular genetics, clinical genetics, behavioral genetics, immunogenetics, pharmacogenomics, population genetics, functional genomics, epigenetics, genetic counseling and gene therapy.
Articles on the following areas are especially welcome: genetic factors of monogenic and complex disorders, genome-wide association studies, genetic epidemiology, cancer genetics, personal genomics, genotype-phenotype relationships and genome diversity.
