(a, b) Coronal sections of bone matrix in the mandibular condyle in the IGF-I group (a) and the control group (b) at 14 weeks of age (hematoxylin-eosin staining, 100x magnification, bars = 100 μm). (c–e) Bone matrix ratio (c), number of osteoblasts (d), and number of osteoclasts (e). Data represent the mean ± SD of six rats (*𝑃<0.05 versus control), adapted from a previous report [10].
