Fig. 7From: Co-culture of the bone and bone marrow: a novel way to obtain mesenchymal stem cells with enhanced osteogenic ability for fracture healing in SD ratsa, b Healing in the rat fracture model by MSCs from different sources was detected by CT imaging. CT imaging showed that B-BM-MSCs had a stronger ability than BM-MSCs to promote fracture healing in vivo. Lane-Sandhu score analysis after the 4th and 6th weeks showed that B-BM-MSCs scored higher than BM-MSCs (p < 0.05). n = 6. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001Back to article page
