            Currently, a lot of publications, mainly as hypotheses, were dedicated to niches for hemopoietic stem cells (HSC). Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MMSC) are treated as important cell component of HSC niches [1].  At the same time, the circumstance that discussion of existence of niches determining fate of MMSC themselves just appears in literature sets at gaze [2]. Pilot experimental data about existence and dimensions of niches for osteogenic differentiation of MMSC, their close dependence on quantitative variables of bone mineral substance relief were recently obtained by us [3].  In this connection, investigation of the relief features effects of model mineral matrix on structural-functional conditions of human MMSC and remodeling of bone/bone marrow system in mice was of great interest.
