Evaluation of the correlation of IL-1β and sclerostin in vivo. Decorticated Transverse processes of at L4 and L5 in rats were harvested at day 0, 1, 3, 7, 14 and 28. IL-1β and sclerostin levels were assessed using ELISA. A IL-1β level in bone tissue. B Sclerostin level in bone tissue. C The correlation between IL-1β and sclerostin. There were 6 male rat in each group. #p < 0.05 and ##p < 0.01 versus day 0
