Type II collagen‐positive embryonic progenitors are the major contributors to spine and intervertebral disc development and repair

Abstract Basic mechanism of spine development is poorly understood. Type II collagen positive (Col2+) cells have been reported to encompass early mesenchymal progenitors that continue to become chondrocytes, osteoblasts, stromal cells, and adipocytes in long bone. However, the function of Col2+ cell...
