Substance P-Mediated Vascular Protection Ameliorates Bone Loss
Figure 7
SP-mediated vascular protection mitigates bone density reduction. (a) The representative images of Masson’s Trichrome (MTC) staining of femoral metaphysis regions. Scale bar: 100 μm. (b) Representative images of femoral μCT (c–f). Quantitative analysis of the trabecular bone fraction of the femur at 8 weeks post-OVX induction. Values are , , , and . BV: trabecular bone volume; TV: tissue volume; BS: bone surface; Tb.N: trabecular number; Tb.SP: trabecular separation.
