EGFL6 stimulated formation of bone after consolidation for 2 and 4 weeks in a rat tibia DO model. a–c Images of histological sections of regenerated bone obtained from the distraction zone (boxed areas in a) of rats treated with EGFL6 or PBS (control). Sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) (a), Masson trichrome stain (b), or Safranin O/Fast green stain (c) in order to indicate newly formed trabecular bone, fibrous tissue, and cartilaginous tissue, respectively, in the distracted area. Scale bars, 200 μm
