Histological analysis for critical size bone defect healing after 6 weeks in male and female mice. A Representative images of H-E staining the bone defect images (scaffolds ± cells) at 200x magnification in male and (B) in female. C, D Defect healing grade score based on the histological evaluation. 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
