Table 2. Total BMD and BMC in cross-bred mice.
IGF-I transgene | female | male | |
---|---|---|---|
BMD (mg/cm2) | − | 36.4±0.4 | 42.4±0.8 |
+ | 40.3±0.1a | 49.9±1.3a | |
BMC (mg) | − | 224±4.1 | 286±12.7 |
+ | 281±7.3b | 394±4.5b |
p<0.05;
p<0.001 compared to age-matched +/+ mice, as assessed by student t test. −: without IGF-I transgene; +: with IGF-I transgene.
