Article Title: PDGFR in PDGF-BB/PDGFR Signaling Pathway Does Orchestrates Osteogenesis in a Temporal Manner
doi: 10.34133/research.0086
Figure Lengend Snippet: The administration of PDGFR-β inhibitor (SU-16f) in the late stage of osteogenesis of bone CSD mouse can significantly promote bone healing and mineralization with assistance of ECM scaffold. (A) The drug delivery schematic diagram of control and PDGFR-β inhibitor serious groups with dose control (Low dose, 10 ng SU-16f qod. ip.; High dose, 100 ng SU-16f qod. ip.) and temporal control (Early, the 1st to 4th week after skull CSD operation; Late, the 5th to 8th week after skull CSD operation). (B) The reconstructions of representative calvarial models (average of the individual samples) measured by micro-CT. Original defect area is shaded with a dashed outline (control, black dotted line, given PBS by ip. qod. after skull operation; Early/Low, purple single dotted line, given 10 ng SU-16f, ip. qod. from the 1st to 4th week; Early/High, purple double dotted line, given 100 ng SU-16f, ip. qod. from the 1st to 4th week; Late/Low, purple single full line, given 10 ng SU-16f ip. qod. from the 5th to 8th week; Late/High, purple double full line, given 100 ng SU-16f ip. qod. from the 5th to 8th week). (C) The quantitative analysis of micro-CT reconstruction (control, black; Early/Low, lilac without board; Early/High, modena without board; Late/Low, lilac with board; Late/High, modena with board line). Data are means ± SEM. n = 5 or 6. One-way ANOVA. ns P ≥ 0.05; ** P < 0.01. (D) The H&E staining image of each group (control, black dotted line; Early/Low, purple single dotted line; Early/High, purple double dotted line; Late/Low, purple single full line; Late/High, purple double full line). Scale bar, 50 μm. (E) The Masson staining of each group (control, black dotted line; Early/Low, purple single dotted line; Early/High, purple double dotted line; Late/Low, purple single full line; Late/High, purple double full line). Scale bar, 50 μm.
