Tetrandrine Inhibits Titanium Particle-Induced Inflammatory Osteolysis through the Nuclear Factor-κB Pathway

Figure 5

Tetrandrine (Tet) decreases osteoclast bone resorption and the formation of F-actin rings. (a) F-actin rings and nuclei were observed under a confocal microscope (). (b) Images of the bone resorption pits in each group (). (c) Quantification of bone resorption area (, compared with the control group; per group). Data are the means of at least three independent experiments with similar results. The red arrows indicate the F-actin rings.
