Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following originate from mesenchymal stem cells?
A
osteoblasts
B
osteogenesis
C
osteocytes
D
osteoclasts
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent stem cells that can differentiate into a variety of cell types, including bone cells (osteoblasts), cartilage cells (chondrocytes), muscle cells (myocytes) and fat cells that give rise to marrow adipose tissue (adipocytes).

Detailed explanation-2: -Osteoprogenitor cells are described as the stem cells that are derived from the mesenchymal cells. These cells differentiate into osteoblasts and osteocytes, which are specialized bone-forming cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -MSCs can be harvested from multiple sources, including adult bone marrow, adipose tissue, peripheral blood and various neonatal birth-associated tissues and they can also be induced in vitro to differentiate into osteoblasts, chondrocytes, adipocytes, and other cell types [1].
