Abstract excerpt
We compared the mechanical properties of bones from mice lacking either a functional cycloxygenase-1 (C57BL6/DBA COX-1-/-; n = 9) or COX-2 (C57BL6/DBA COX-2-/-; n = 9) gene and wild type mice (C57BL6/DBA; n = 10). Twenty-eight right femora from 3-month-old male mice were used to determine bulk st...
