Low Bone Strength Is a Manifestation of Phenylketonuria in Mice and Is Attenuated by a Glycomacropeptide Diet
Figure 3
Diet modifies femoral size and strength in WT and PKU mice.
Representative photographs of femoral cross-sectional geometry in mice fed casein, AA, and GMP diets from which measurements of cross-sectional area and perimeter are obtained (A). Diet effect on maximum load derived from load-displacement curve analysis (B). Values are means ± SE; p-values represent main effect of diet. Sample size is shown in parenthesis. Groups with different letter superscripts are significantly different (p<0.05).
