Figure 6

The effect of experimental osteoarthritis (OA) on Safranin O histological staining of the murine knee joint. Typical sections from the condyle and groove areas of (a through f) the treadmill-only group and (g through l) the OA group are shown. In each case, the boxed areas are shown at high magnification to the immediate right; for example, the boxed areas in (a) are shown at higher magnification in (b) and (c). Black arrows indicate (h and k) cartilage erosion and (i and l) fibrotic or chondrophytic deposits.
