  1. The changes of trabecular and cortical bone parameters in wild type and SP-deficient mice are expressed as the Mean Percent Difference (MPD). MPD = ((FX - Control)/Control) × 100. Bold font indicates statistically significant differences in MPD between FX and age-matched controls for both wild type and SP deficiency mice, as determined by Students’ t-test (mean ± SE, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001).
