Figure 4. Shaft of femur with and without ACTH1–24 treatment shows no differences.

Figure 4.

A. Cross sections of ACTH1–24 treated (top) and saline control (bottom) bone. No difference is apparent; this was further studied by quantitative μ-computed tomography (B).

B. Percent bone volume by μ-computed tomography showed no difference (p > 0.95, n = 5 treated and 5 untreated). Since there is no trabecular bone (see A), trabecular parameters (as shown in trabecular bone of the femoral head, in Fig 3) are not meaningful and are not shown.
