An optimized protocol for a standardized, femoral osteotomy model to study fracture healing in mice
Summary: Fracture healing represents a dynamic and complex process which depends on the balanced activities of a broad array of different cell types and signaling pathways. Here, we describe a femoral osteotomy protocol for mice, using an external fixator to stabilize the fractured bone. Depending o...
