Figure 3

Pasteurized bone with (MC-; FGF2-) at 2 weeks after grafting shows the grafted bone (left part) and the host bone (right part). Protuberant bone formation from the end surface of the host bone can be seen (A). Osteoclasts can not be observed on the surface of the grafted bone (B), whereas osteoclasts can be observed on the surface of the bone formation with numerous osteoclasts (C). Pasteurized bone shows empty lacunae without osteocytes (D). Pasteurized bone is surrounded by fibrous tissue (E).
