Abstract
⺠Both FoxD1-cre and Glast-creERT labeled cells contribute broadly to different normal tissues. ⺠FoxD1-cre labeled cells contribute to normal bone only. ⺠Glast-creERT labeled progenitors contributed only to HO. ⺠The cell populations that contribute to physiological bone formation may not participate in pathological HO. ⺠Identification of Glast-expressing cells as precursors that give rise to HO should help with therapeutic interventions.
