Abstract in brief

  • The bone marrow contains different types of skeletal stem cells (SSCs) that are crucial for bone formation, especially those associated with leptin receptors in adults.
  • Researchers have identified a specific type of SSC in young bone marrow marked by fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (Fgfr3), which transitions into other stromal cells as the individual ages.
  • When the p53 tumor suppressor is lost, these Fgfr3-marked cells can lead to aggressive bone tumors, highlighting their dual role in both healthy bone development and potential cancer progression.
