Influence of Bone and Muscle Injuries on the Osteogenic Potential of Muscle Progenitors: Contribution of Tissue Environment to Heterotopic Ossification

By using surgical mouse models, this study investigated how the tissue environment influences the osteogenic potential of muscle progenitors (m‐progenitors) and potentially contributes to heterotopic ossification (HO). Injury was induced by clamping the gluteus maximus and medius (group M) or osteot...
