The Effects of Altered Gravity on the Bone Mass of Humerus in Mice

Caption

The µCT images of humerus were shown in upper panels, and the parameters of µCT analysis for humerus bone mass were shown in lower panels in space mice (A.) and 2G mice (B.). A significant difference between the two groups was indicated; *P<0.05 and **P<0.01 vs AG, #P<0.001 vs 1G. Scale bar indicated 1 mm. BV/TV: bone volume/tissue volume, BMC/TV: bone mineral content / tissue volume.
