Figure 3: Titanium particles stimulate osteoclastogenesis in vitro.
From: Scaling of titanium implants entrains inflammation-induced osteolysis
(a) TRAP staining (images and TRAP+area) of osteoclasts after 4 days of differentiation in the presence of LPS (0.01 μg/ml), titanium particles or diluent only (control). Bar = 30 μm. (b) The average number per well (N.Oc) and (c) the osteoclast area (mm2) in TRAP+cells after 4 days of differentiation. Data are shown as the mean ± SD. *p < 0.05 versus control; **p < 0.05 versus LPS and control.
