Site‐Specific Load‐Induced Expansion of Sca‐1+Prrx1+ and Sca‐1−Prrx1+ Cells in Adult Mouse Long Bone Is Attenuated With Age

ABSTRACT Aging is associated with significant bone loss and increased fracture risk, which has been attributed to a diminished response to anabolic mechanical loading. In adults, skeletal progenitors proliferate and differentiate into bone‐forming osteoblasts in response to increasing mechanical sti...
