Abstract excerpt
Despite recent advances in our understanding of the molecular basis of skeletal fragility, little is known about how these molecular alterations lead to whole bone brittleness. In the current study, we investigated the relationship between a type-I collagen mutation and post-yield behavior of whole bone in Mov13 transgenic mice by considering tissue-level organizational issues known to be important for normal...
