Across
  1. 3. an immune-privileged stem cell
  2. 7. cell fragments that provide signaling only
  3. 8. the foremost structural protein body tissues are composed of
  4. 12. privileged, (2 words) safe for sharing with virtually zero risk of rejection response from the host
  5. 14. a bone maintaining cell
  6. 15. science speak for signals
  7. 18. a bone-building cell
  8. 20. adult stem cell at least 8 days after fertilization and capable of building many tissue types
  9. 22. cell migration courtest of a chemical signal
  10. 24. new blood vessel formation
  11. 25. collagen secreted by a bone-building cell
  12. 26. committed, (2 words) differentiated and incapable of reverting back into a stem cell
  13. 27. fancy for signaling
Down
  1. 1. (abbr.) a growth factor that inspires new blood vessel formation
  2. 2. cell suicide but it is typically just the natural order of things
  3. 4. a stem cell that is safe for autologous use only in orthopaedics
  4. 5. (abbr.) from an HSC but a cell type that we try to reduce in PRP & BMC
  5. 6. (abbr.) a cytokine that reliably tells an MSC to differentiate into a bone-building cell
  6. 9. science speak for cells capable of creating new matrix
  7. 10. science speak for a 3D scaffold where cellular activity can take place
  8. 11. (abbr.) immune cells
  9. 13. how cells sense force on a tissue and translate it into a message for action
  10. 16. the most potent cell type
  11. 17. his full-time job is as a trash collector
  12. 19. (abbr.) a signal from the osteoblast that affects osteoclast formation and activity
  13. 21. cell, dormant osteoblast that can wake up and get back to work when needed
  14. 23. a bone-resorbing or collapsing cell
