Mesenchymal progenitors (MPs) are considered to play vital roles in bone development, growth, bone turnover, and repair. In recent years, benefiting from advanced approaches such as single-cell sequence, lineage tracing, flow cytometry, and transplantati
were identified.24In addition, selective modulation of autophagy-related genes in bone cells is sufficient to recapitulate the osteoporotic state in animal models.18,25At the same time, modulation of autophagic activities has potential therapeutic value for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis....
