Micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) analysis. (A): Reconstructions of high-resolution micro-CT scans, shown in frontal and axial planes. (B–F): Micro-CT quantifications were next performed for bone mineral density (B), fractional bone volume (C), trabecular thickness (D), trabecular number (E), and trabecular spacing (F). ∗∗, p ≤ .01 compared with control. No significant difference in micro-CT parameters was observed between hPSC-treated groups. Abbreviations: BMD, bone mineral density; BV/TV, fractional bone volume; hPSC, human perivascular stem cell; Tb. N, trabecular number; TB. Sp, trabecular spacing; Tb. Th, trabecular thickness.
