Effect of Foxo1 miRNA on developing tibia

Bone volume fraction (BVF), bone mineral density (BMD), and total mineral content (Min Cont) were determined by microCT. Expression of Foxo1 (Foxo 1 exp), Foxo3 (Foxo 3 exp), and Foxo4 (Foxo 4 exp) measured by semiquantitative RT-PCR in tibiae infected with Foxo1 miRNA viral vector is presented relative to levels in tibiae infected with control miRNA vector. Data are expressed as means ± S.D. of three experiments.

Control Foxo 1 miRNA
Foxo 1 exp 1 0.32 ± 0.06a
Foxo 3 exp 1 1.2 ± 0.24
Foxo 4 exp 1 1.3 ± 0.26
BVF (%) 13.7 ± 1.87 8.54 ± 0.94a
BMD (mg/cc) 263.1 ± 18.27 232.3 ± 15.54a
Min Cont (μg) 5.6 ± 1.4 2.3 ± 0.8a

a Significantly different from control miRNA values (p < 0.05).
