Figure 6. Osteoclast numbers are reduced in Col3+/− compared to Col3+/+ calluses 21 days post fracture.

Figure 6

Osteoclasts within the callus 21 and 28 days post fracture (dpf) were identified by TRAP staining. Osteoclast number was normalized to bone surface for quantification. Osteoclast numbers per mm bone surface were significantly reduced in Col3 +/− mice dpf 21 when compared to Col3 +/+, and osteoclasts decreased between 21 and 28 dpf for Col3+/+ mice, but increased in Col3+/− fractures, *p < 0.05 and ***p < 0.001 via 1-way ANOVA followed by a Tukey post hoc test (n.s., not significant).
