E-FABP-immunoreactivity and apoptosis in septoclasts. Confocal laser-scanning micrographs of double staining for E-FABP (red) plus TUNEL reaction (green) at the COJ of the GP in mouse proximal tibiae of P4w control (a), P4w RA excess (b), P9w control (c), and P9w VA deficiency (d) and the graph (e) showing the significant increase of simultaneously E-FABP-immunoreactive and TUNEL-positive apoptotic cells at the COJ of the GP in mouse proximal tibiae of RA excess in an area of 1000-μm width ×200-μm height as compared to the control. Arrows: TUNEL-positive septoclasts; arrow head: TUNEL-positive chondrocyte; scale bars 20 μm; mean ± SD; *P < 0.01 (n = 10)
