craniofacial
N |
• animals have normal tooth eruption

skeleton
• numbers of osteoclasts in the primary spongiosa are significantly increased at 6 weeks
|
• in vitro differentiated osteoclasts plate on dentin slices display decreased bone resorpion activity (45% lower osteoclastic resorption activity); osteoclasts show impaired resorption in vivo also
