LR administration enhances cortical bone microarchitecture. 3-D u-CT reconstruction of Femur Cortical and Tibia Cortical of all groups. (A) Bone micro-architecture of Femur Cortical. (B) Histomorphometric parameters of Femur Cortical. (C) Bone micro-architecture of Tibia Cortical. (D) Histomorphometric parameters of Tibia Cortical. T. Ar., bone tissue area; T. Pm., total cross-sectional perimeter; Ct. Po., cortical porosity. The results were evaluated by ANOVA with subsequent comparisons by Student t-test for paired or nonpaired data. Values are reported as mean ± SEM. The above graphical representations are indicative of one independent experiment and similar results were obtained in two different independent experiments with n = 6. Statistical significance was considered as p ≤ 0.05 (*p ≤ 0.05, **p ≤ 0.01, ***p ≤ 0.001) with respect to indicated mice groups.
