H&E staining used for the analysis of the histomorphology of the new bone around different groups: CON (a1), OVX (b1), and CBZ (c1), CBZ-ALN (d1). The black rectangle represents the location of new bone formation around the bony deficits. (black arrow: new bone, bar 400 mm). Masson’s trichrome staining used for the analysis of new bone formation: CON group (e1), OVX group (f1), and CBZ group (g1), CBZ-ALN group (d3). The yellow rectangle represents the location of new bone formation around the bony deficits. Enlarged view specifically shows new bone formation in the corresponding square: CON (e1), OVX (f1), CBZ (g1), and CBZ-ALN (h1) for H&E staining and CON (e2), OVX (f2), CBZ (g2), and CBZ-ALN (h2) for Masson’s dyeing (yellow arrow: new bone, bar 100 mm)
