• increase in cortical bone thickness at the diaphysis of femurs at 10 weeks of age
• cortical bone thickness of femurs increases in mutants but decreases in wild-type mice with aging

skeleton
• increase in cortical bone thickness at the diaphysis of femurs at 10 weeks of age
• cortical bone thickness of femurs increases in mutants but decreases in wild-type mice with aging
• bone mineral density of femurs increases in mutants but decreases in wild-type with advancing age
• increase in trabecular bone volume
• progressive increase in bone mass
• significant increase in mineral apposition rates, resulting in increased bone formation rates with no change in bone resorption
• bone strength is increased at 52 weeks of age compared to wild-type
