Endochondral ossification is accelerated in 5-LO^KO mice. Callus area (A), percent cartilage (B), and percent mineralized tissue (C) were measured for femoral fracture specimens at 7, 10, 14, and 21 days after fracture. Group size was 5 at each time point for the C57BL/6 strain (blue) and 5-LO^KO strain (green). Each rectangle represents the 25th and 75th percentiles and the median value is indicated with a line. Differences between the C57BL/6 and 5-LO^KO samples are indicated with the corresponding p-values above the x-axis.
