Figure 8. Downregulating p53 expression may protect against osteoporosis in vivo. (A) Cross sections of bone samples from osteoporosis model mice treated for 10 weeks with PBS, siRNA-NC, or siRNA-p53 (n=10 in each group). (B) BV, TV, BV/TV, and BMD values measured in osteoporosis model mice in each treatment group. Data are means±SD of triplicate experiments. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
