Gossypol Promotes Bone Formation in Ovariectomy-Induced Osteoporosis through Regulating Cell Apoptosis

Figure 2

Gossypol increased bone strength after ovariectomy. (a) MicroCT was used to scan the thighbone of each mouse in control and gossypol group. (b) Bone density of each mouse was assessed in control and gossypol group. (c) Ultimate strength of each mouse was determined in control and gossypol group. (d) Postyield displacement of each mouse was measured in control and gossypol group. Each experiment was repeated for three times. Data were presented as mean ±SEM. P<0.05 versus control.
