Harmine emulsion induces type H vessel formation and PDGF-BB production in OVX mice. (A) Representative images of CD31 (red) and Emcn (green) immunostaining in femora from sham, OVX and OVX + harmine mice. BM: bone marrow; GP: growth plate; TB: trabecular bone. Scale bar: 100 µm. (B) Quantification of the ratio of type H vessel (HV; yellow) in different treatment groups. n = 4 per group. TV: total vessels. (C-D) Bone marrow concentrations of PDGF-BB and VEGF from sham, OVX and OVX + harmine mice were detected by ELISA. n = 4 per group. *P < 0.05 vs. sham group, #P < 0.05 vs. OVX group.
