Deskripsi

The rate of repair declines with age; however, exposure to young circulations can rejuvenate fracture repair, but how this is accomplished is unknown. Here, the authors identify proteins, including low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (Lrp1), as being secreted from young macrophages and rejuvenating fracture repair in mice.
