Effects of 3, 10 and 30 μg/kg ASP5878 administration for 3 weeks on bone length in Fgfr3Ach mice. (a) Body weight just before the administration to 21-day-olds. (b) Body weight after the administration to 43-day-olds. (c) Top, femur length after the administration to 43-day-olds. Bottom, the images of the femur with median length in each group are shown. (d) Top, tibia length after the administration to 43-day-olds. Bottom, the images of the tibia with median length in each group are shown. (e) Comparison of 300 μg/kg ASP5878 administration and m-CNP administration on femur length in male Fgfr3Ach mice. We calculated the elongation length by subtracting the mean bone lengths of mice treated with vehicle from those of mice treated with ASP5878 or m-CNP. We further divided the elongation length by the mean bone length of the mice treated with vehicle and designated the quotient as the elongation index. Error bars denote the means ± s.d. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01 compared to vehicle by one-way ANOVA with post-hoc Tukey HSD test.
