Abstract

Significance: A mechanistic understanding of how calcium phosphate (CaP) minerals contribute to osteogenic commitment of stem cells and bone tissue formation is a necessary requirement for developing efficient CaP-based synthetic matrices to treat bone defects. This study unravels a previously unknown mechanism, phosphate-ATP-adenosine metabolic signaling, by which the CaP-rich mineral environment in bone tissues promotes osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells. In addition to a mechanical perspective on how biomaterials can influence stem cell differentiation through metabolic pathways, this discovery opens up new avenues for treating critical bone defects and bone metabolic disorders.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
