Data are mean ± S.D. from 6 tibias of wild-type control, Wwtr1+/−, Wwtr1Oc-Het, and Wwtr1Oc-cKO mice and expressed as the fold changes relative to the housekeeping gene β-actin subsequently normalized to control mice. *, **, *** indicates significant difference from wild-type control at P < 0.05, P < 0.01, P < 0.001, respectively. P values were determined by 1-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple-comparisons test
