Opg,osteoprotegerin;Rankl,receptor activator of nuclear kappa B ligand.aValues are expressed as mean±S.E.M.(n=6–10);Holm–Sidak post-hoc analysis adjusted P-values compared to wild type;bold values highlight*P<0.05,**P<0.01.

To determine if galectin-3 plays a role in trabecular bone mass,we measured trabecular bone parameters in the distal femur and L3vertebral body by microcomputed tomography(μCT).The results for femurs and L3 vertebrae are displayed in Supplementary Tables 2 and 3,respectively.While Lgals3KO/KOfemale mice had normal trabecular bone measurements in femurs and L3 vertebrae at 12 wk,by 36 wk they had significantly elevated bone mineral density(BMD)and bone volume fraction(BV/TV)in both the femur(+13.3%and+114.8%,respectively;Fig.1)and the L3 vertebral body(+16.7%and+34.7%,respectively).At 36 wk,the increased BV/TV in Lgals3KO/KOfemurs was due to significant contributions from increased trabecular thickness(Tb.Th;+14.5%)and trabecular number(Tb.N;+75%),as well as a significant decrease in trabecular spacing(Tb.Sp;-9.5%).The increase in BV/TV in the vertebral body was primarily due to a significant increase in Tb.Th(+12.8%).
