[Cellular aspects of bone regeneration: role of bone marrow periostium].
Bone regeneration is only possible if stem cells give rise to progenitors of osteoblasts, chondroblasts or chondroidocytes. Stem cells and osteogenic progenitors were evidenced in bone marrow while only progenitors can be found in periosteum. Bone marrow stem cells did show an amazing plasticity and some cells of the bone surrounding tissues such as perivascular cells, adipocytes, muscle cells or even circulating cells are able to transdifferentiate in osteoblasts when submitted to an osteogenic environment. We have shown that the destruction of both bone marrow and periost impairs the bone healing. It indicates that the periost and bone marrow destruction removes the predetermined osteogenic cells and the informative factors able to induce the transdifferenciation of the cells contained in the peri-osseous tissues.
