Repairing bones and cartilage may get easier thanks to newly discovered human skeletal stem cells. Scientists found the stem cells, which give rise to bones, cartilage and the spongy bone that harbors bone marrow, in fetal bones, adult bones and fat, researchers report online September 20 in Cell. The researchers also reprogrammed adult cells into…
