Rapamycin increase the number of osteoblasts in the rat callus. (A) Calluses section from Sprague-Dawley rats at 2, 4 and 6 weeks post-fracture under treatment with rapamycin or vehicle were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (n=12 per group; magnification, ×200). Arrow indicates an osteoblast in the callus. (B) Quantitative analysis of osteoblast number indicated a significant increase in cellularity after rapamycin treatment compared with the vehicle treatment. Values are presented as the mean ± standard deviation. *P<0.01 vs. vehicle-treated group.
