| Comments | As shown in Table 1, ultimate load, ultimate stress, and Young’s modulus of Opg-/- mice were significantly decreased as compared with those of wild-type mice. After treatment with raloxifene, the values of these indexes were significantly increased for both lumbar vertebrae and femur bones. |
