The Senolytic Drug Fisetin Attenuates Bone Degeneration in the Zmpste24−/− Progeria Mouse Model

Figure 5

Acute fisetin treatment attenuates bone loss in Z24 mice. (a) Micro-CT images of whole skeleton for 4 mo Z24−/− mice with and without fisetin (FIS) versus age-matched WT. (b) Micro-CT-generated bone morphometry of tibiofemoral joint (knee) of Z24 mice with or without 1-month fisetin treatment. Quantification of micro-CT imaging for Hounsfield unit (HU) intensity, bone mineral density (BMD), and specific bone surface (BS/BV). Quantification based on nontreated Z24−/− control mice (n = 7, ).
