Effect of fracture healing on osteoblastic potential of MSCs in uninjured control bone. a Representative alizarin red S–stained plates. b Mean ± SD of mineralized nodules per plate. c Mean ± SD of optical density values obtained after alizarin red S solubilization of plates analyzed in b. d Mean ± SD of total colonies per plate. Data were obtained from three animals per time point. #P <0.05, *P <0.01 compared to naive control
