• decreased bone mineral content
• lower cortical volumetric tissue mineral content
|
• Background Sensitivity: bone mineral density is highest on the mixed A/J and C57BL/6 background compared to F1 crosses to BALB/cByJ, FVB/NJ, or C3H/HeJ
|
• cortical volumetric tissue mineral density (vTMD) is elevated in the femur
|
• fewer and more widely spaced trabeculae
|
• femurs are weaker and more brittle
