Bone stromal cells are critical for bone homeostasis and regeneration. Growing evidence suggests that non-stem bone niche cells support bone homeostasis and regeneration via paracrine mechanisms, which remain to be elucidated. Here, we show that physiologically quiescent SM22α-lineage stromal cells expand after bone injury to regulate diverse processes of intramembranous bone regeneration. The majority of SM22α-lineage cells neither act as stem cells in vivo nor show their expression patterns. Dysfunction of SM22α-lineage niche cells induced by loss of platelet-derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFRβ) impairs bone repair. We further show that PDGFRβ-triggered hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) generation in SM22α-lineage niche cells facilitates osteogenesis and angiogenesis and suppresses overactive osteoclastogenesis. Collectively, these data demonstrate that non-stem SM22α-lineage niche cells support the niche for bone regeneration with a PDGFRβ/H₂S-dependent regulatory mechanism. Our findings provide further insight into non-stem bone stromal niche cell populations and niche-regulation strategy for bone repair.
