μCT-based quantification of the trabecular bone volume of sham-operated and ovariectomized mice
Mice | Bone volume, %
|
|
---|---|---|
Mean | SD | |
Wild type; ovariectomized | 2.59* | 0.62 |
Wild type; sham operated | 6.16 | 0.54 |
Osteopontin deficient; ovariectomized | 13.88 | 2.07 |
Osteopontin deficient; sham operated | 15.80 | 2.34 |
n = 4 in all cases.
Difference between the ovariectomized and sham-operated animals is statistically significant (P < 0.05).
