The effects of microgravity on the humerus, femur, and tibia. Representative sectioning of the humerus (n = 10, scale bar = 0.5 mm) (a), femur (n = 5, scale bar = 1 mm) (b), and tibia (n = 5, scale bar = 1 mm) (c) for measurements of bone parameters by µCT. d–f BV/TV measurements for proximal humerus (d), distal femur (e), and proximal tibia (f). Dots indicate measured value for a single animal. Black bars represent means. Group means compared by one-way ANOVAs with Holm–Sidak post-hoc analyses. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001
