(A) Remaining bone defect volume after 21 days of implantation in the femoral head. The values and error bars indicate the mean and standard deviation values, respectively. The number of samples in all groups was five. Significant differences (p < 0.05) between the groups at each time point are denoted by different superscript letters (i.e., bars with the same letter are not significantly different). (B) 3D μCT images of (a) CaP/CMC, (b) 3mixCaP, (c) CaP/PEI/pVEGF/SiO2, (d) CaP/PEI/pBMP-7/SiO2, and (e) CaP/PEI/siRNA-TNF-α/SiO2. Cross-sectional μCT images at bone defect area of (f) CaP/CMC, (g) 3mixCaP, (h) CaP/PEI/pVEGF/SiO2, (i) CaP/PEI/pBMP-7/SiO2, and (j) CaP/PEI/siRNA-TNF-α/SiO2 after 21 days of implantation in the femoral head. Scale bars in (a)–(e) are 5000 μm and those in (f)–(j) are 1 mm. The dotted line shows the outline of the remaining bone defect part.
