CD13 deficiency leads to marked reduction in trabecular bone volume and structure in 18–25 week old aged mice. (ad) Bone morphometry by µCT analysis; (a), BV/TV(%); Bone volume/Tissue volume (b), Trabecular number, (c) Trabecular Thickness (d) Trabecular Separation. (e–h) Histomorphometric analysis (e), BV/TV(%), (f) Oc.S/BS; % OCs per bone surface, (g) Mineral apposition rate (MAR), (h) Bone formation rate (BFR/BS) measured by Osteomeasure software (OsteoMetrics, Decatur, USA) (https://www.osteometrics.com). All samples were scanned, reconstructed, and analyzed in a Scanco µCT40 running Evaluation Program V6.6 (http://www.scanco.ch/en/systems-solutions/software.html). Data represents ± SD. (N = 6; WT and N = 7; CD13KO. ***p < 0.001, **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05).
