µCT images of the femur in male and female mice. A Sagittal view for femurs and defect areas of three groups in Male and (B) in Female. C, D Defect healing at 6 weeks (mm) and (E, F) Tissue mineral content (mg) of the bone defect area were calculated by the µCT. Male Sc-only, n = 6; male Sc + MSCs, n = 6; male Sc + IL4-MSCs, n = 6. Female Sc-only, n = 4; female Sc + MSCs, n = 6; female Sc + IL4-MSCs, n = 6.; *:0.01 ≤ p < 0.05, **:0.001 ≤ p < 0.01
