Figure 2

Histomorphometric analysis of the vertebrae in the strains 129X1/SvJ, BALB/cJ, B6, and DBA/2 displayed as means ± SEM. P and L refers to P451 and 451L, respectively. (a) The BV/TV% of 129X1/SvJ was between 32% and 46% lower than the BV/TV% in the other strains. (b) The percentage of eroded surfaces (ES/BS%) was nearly 50% higher in the 129X1/SvJ strain compared to the other strains.
