title: Altered glycobiology of stem cells linked to age-related osteoarthritis.
abstract: Comment on: Jiang et al. Gene expression profiling suggests a pathological role of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells in aging-related skeletal diseases. Aging 2011; this issue. In this issue of Impact Aging, Jiang et al. report key differences in the patterns of expressed mRNAs in bone-marrow mesenchymal stem cells (bmMSCs) of young donors compared with old human donors.
