Figure 5

(A) Calcium amount, expressed as a percentage of tibial dry weight (both in milligrams). n = 10. (B) Goldner-stained sections of the tibial cortex, with osteocytes (arrowhead) shown magnified (insets). Scale bars: 50 μm; 10 μm (insets). (C and D) Quantification of cortical BMD by μCT in a predefined region (C) and along a line from the endosteal to the periosteal side (D). n = 8. (E) BSE image of the diaphyseal cortex. White arrows denote the periosteal side. Scale bar: 50 μm.
