Characterization of the Subchondral Bone and Pain Behavior Changes in a Novel Bipedal Standing Mouse Model of Facet Joint Osteoarthritis
Figure 5
Mechanical loading accelerated subchondral bone resorption and aberrant vessel and nerve invade in the subchondral bone of LFJ. (a) Representative TRAP (upper), CGRP (middle), and CD-31- (lower-) positive blood vessel staining in LFJ were selected from different groups. (b) Quantitative analysis of osteoclast positive number, CGRP-positive areas, and CD31-positive areas in LFJ. The data are presented as the . for differences between the control group and the bipedal standing group. .
