Antiosteoporosis efficacy of Asp8-PU–anti-miR214.

Notes: *P<0.05. (A) Real-time qPCR analysis of miR214 levels in osteoclasts isolated by FACS in tibiae collected from the groups of mice indicated; (B) representative images showing three-dimensional trabecular architecture by micro-CT reconstruction in distal femora (bars 1 mm); (C) micro-CT measurements of BMD and BV/TV in distal femora; (D) micro-CT measurements of Tb.Th, Tb.Sp, Tb.N, and SMI in distal femora; (E) histomorphometry analysis of Oc.S/BS and Oc.N/BPm in distal femora. All data presented as means ± SE, n=6 per group. **Indicates significant difference at P<0.01.
