Weight, total BMC, bone area, and BMD of 1-month- old CTGF homozygous transgenics and wild-type control mice
| Weight | BMC | Bone Area | BMD | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Male | ||||
| WT | 15.7 ± 0.6 | 223 ± 11 | 6.4 ± 0.2 | 345 ± 7 |
| CTGF | 11.9 ± 0.7a | 162 ± 13a | 5.2 ± 0.4a | 314 ± 1a |
| Female | ||||
| WT | 15.2 ± 0.3 | 215 ± 7 | 6.1 ± 0.1 | 353 ± 5 |
| CTGF | 14.1 ± 0.6 | 184 ± 5a | 5.6 ± 0.1a | 329 ± 3a |
Weight (g), BMC (g × 104), bone area (cm2), and BMD (g/cm2 × 104) were obtained from one month old CTGF homozygous transgenics from line 2 and wild-type (WT) controls. Values are means ± sem (n = 5–8).
Significantly different from wild-type controls, P < 0.05.
