Cellular hypoxia promotes osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells and bone defect healing via STAT3 signaling.

Conclusions: The in vitro study revealed that the duration of hypoxia is crucial for osteogenic differentiation of precursor cells. The results from both the in vitro and in vivo studies show the role of STAT3 signaling in hypoxia-induced osteogenic differentiation of precursor cells and bone defect healing.
