Figure 4

Bone loss is evident in diabetes induced by both low- and high-dose STZ. The two-dimensional images at the top were obtained from micro-computed tomography analyses of representative tibias from control and STZ-treated mice (40 days post first injection). Three dimensional images were composed of 760 consecutive slices. The bar graphs indicate the measured bone volume fraction (average ± SE) of the tibial trabecular region and the tibia lengths of control (white bar), 40 mg/kg STZ (low dose, gray bar), or 60 mg/kg STZ mice (high dose, black bar). n > 3 per condition. *p < 0.05 compared to control.
