Figure 3
Effects of maternal hypoxia on offspring proximal tibia primary spongiosa height. (a) and (b) H&E-stained tibial sections (primary spongiosa shown between two tracing lines) of 120d postnatal guinea pigs from a control and a hypoxic mother, respectively. (c) Primary spongiosa height of (c) 62d gestation fetal and (d) postnatal 120d guinea pigs from control and hypoxia-treated mothers (). Scale bar in (a) = 1 mm and applies to (b).
