Figure 3. Intramembranous ossification and vascularization are unchanged in Hox11 mutant fractures.
(A) mCT analysis of outer regions of callus show comparable bone formation in regions of intramembranous ossification. (B) Osterix and PECAM-stained sections show bone formation and vascularization in regions of intramembranous ossification. cb; cortical bone. (C-D) PECAM-staining in controls and Hox11 mutants shows comparable vascularization in the early callus (1.5WPF). cb; cortical bone.
