Antioxidant treatment ameliorated osteoporosis in GorabPrx1 mutants. (a) NAC treatment plan. 4 weeks old GorabPrx1 mutants started drinking 1 mg/mL of the antioxidant N‐acetylcyteine (NAC) or vehicle for 8 weeks. (b) 3D rendering, (c) representative microCT images and quantitation of (d) percentage of trabecular bone volume (BV/TV); (e) trabecular number (Tb.N); (f) trabecular separation (Tb.Sp); and (g) trabecular thickness (Tb.N) at the proximal tibia of 12 weeks old female control and GorabPrx1 mice treated with NAC (N = 8–10). Scale bar = 500 μm. Scanned and analyzed with Scanco μCT40 at 10 μm. Histomorphometric analysis at the proximal tibia secondary spongiosa in control and NAC treated GorabPrx1 mutants for (h) number of osteoblast per bone perimeter (N.Ob/B.Pm) and (i) number of osteoclast per bone perimeter (N.Oc/B.Pm). (N = 5) *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ns, no statistically significant difference (unpaired Welch's t‐test).
