In an experiment in mice with ovaries removed, targeted particles restored spongy bone structure and bone strength.In an experiment in mice with ovaries removed, targeted particles restored spongy bone structure and bone strength.
Mouse studyBones and joints
Who was studiedOvariectomized female ICR mice, 4 weeks, against saline-treated ovariectomized mice
What changedMice given RNA-carrying particles had less bone loss than saline-treated mice
The catchOnly 6 mice per group were used to assess bone-loss treatment
