Figure 3. — Histology of stifle joints in untreated control BALB/cJ mice on postnatal day 28 (P28) at magnifications of (A) 4× and (B) 20×, in untreated P24 BALB/cAnNHsd mice at magnifications of (C) 4× and (D) 20×; in P24 BALB/cAnNHsd mice treated with the low-dose dexamethasone regimen (8 mg/L during week 1 and then 4 mg/L throughout weeks 2 through 6 wk) at magnifications of (E) 4× and (F) 20×; and in dexamethasone-treated P24 BALB/cAnNHsd (8 mg/L during week 1 and 4 mg/L for weeks 2 through 9) at magnifications of (G) 4× and (H) 20×. Osteonecrotic lesions are evident in P24 BALB/cAnNHsd mice treated with the high-dose dexamethasone regimen (8 mg/L for 6 wk) at magnifications of (I) 4× and (J) 20×; in P24 BALB/cAnNHsd treated with dexamethasone (8 mg/L for 8.5 wk) at magnifications of (K) 4× and (L) 20×; and in P28 BALB/cJ mice on the low-dose dexamethasone regimen (8 mg/L during week 1 and 4 mg/L for weeks 2 through 6) at magnifications of (M) 4× and (N) 20×.
