The in situ mineral and fibril strain measured from x-ray scattering measurements for (a) wild type and (b) oim/oim bone. The fitted line was obtained from the linear regression model. The correlation between mineral and collagen strain was much weaker in oim/oim bone. In addition, the ratio between mineral to collagen strain was smaller in oim/oim bone. These results were indicative of compromised cooperative deformation mechanisms among bone constituents in oim/oim bone.
