Mechanical properties and femoral cortical bone geometry were analyzed. In order to evaluate the mechanical properties of bone in Keap1^+/− mice, the femurs were subjected to three points bending test. There were no differences in the ultimate force, stiffness and energy to failure between Keap1 WT and Ht mice. There were not difference between total cross sectional area (T.Ar) and cortical bone area (Ct.B.Ar) between WT and Keap1^+/− mice in either male and female mice. Data were tested using two-way ANOVA with Keap1 genotype and gender as main effects. n = 11–14/group.
