Figure 3: BBZ/Wor T2D rats exhibit reduced blood flow to the bone marrow.

Figure 3:

A significant reduction in blood flux is observed in T2D rats compared to controls in both the BM and sciatic nerve. (A) Background showing exposed femur under retraction. Target area was imaged using a laser Doppler (LDPI) for relative blood flux and color charted (arrow and inset). Examples of LDPI of bone marrow (B & C) and sciatic nerve (D & E) in a control and T2D rat respectively. Warm (red) colors represent regions of relative high flux whereas cool colors (blue) represent areas of low flux. F: Quantification of LDPI imaging is shown in control (n = 4) and diabetic (n = 4) rats.
