Here, we addressed the changes in trabecular bone properties at greater trochanter, the proximal and the distal metaphysis of femur in UUO mice. The male mice were subjected to UUO (n= 10) or sham operation (n= 10). All mice were killed on day 7 after the surgical operation. The micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) analysis for different femoral trabecular bone sites demonstrated pathological alterations of trabecular bone mass and micro-networks at greater trochanter as shown by decreases in bone mineral density/bone volume (P〈O.05) and trabecular number (P〈O.05) and increases in trabecular separation (P〈O.01) and bone surface/bone volume (P〈O.05) in UUO mice. The present study demonstrates that UUO-induced unilateral obstructivenephropathy has markedly detrimental effects on the trabecular trochanter of the femur.展开更多
