Absence of CD47 during femoral fracture healing results in alterations in fracture tissue composition. Histomorphometry of transverse femoral fractures in WT (n = 6-7), and CD47-null (n = 11–13) mice at 10- and 20-days post-fracture. Each data point represents an individual mouse. Callus composition was quantified through histomorphometry (mean ± SD) at day 10 and 20 post-fracture. a Callus volume, b Cartilage volume, c Bone volume, d Marrow volume, e Fibrous volume, f Cartilage percent, g Bone percent, h Marrow percent, i Fibrous percent. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, two-sided t test performed at each timepoint
