AMSC

–

Promotes the expression of Bcl-2 and inhibits the expression of Bax.

Inhibits osteocyte apoptosis and osteoclastogenesis.

[136]

AMSC

–

–

Attenuate TNF-α-induced osteoblast apoptosis.

[137]

AMSC

–

Suppress NLRP3 inflammasome activation in osteoclasts

Reduce bone resorption.

[138]

AMSC

miR-451a

Reduce the expression of MIF.

Promote macrophage M1-to-M2 polarization.

[140]

AMSC

miR-130a-3p

Inhibit the expression of SIRT7 and increase the expression of proteins related to Wnt signaling pathway.

Promote osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs

[141]

AMSC

–

Inhibit the expression of Nrf2.

Attenuates apoptosis in Dex-induced GIOP model and alleviates GIOP development.

[142]

AMSC

–

Activate the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway to enhances the osteogenic potential of BMSCs.

Enhance the ability of bone repair and regeneration in vivo, promote fracture healing.
