additional information construction of male and female wild-type, heterozygous, and homozygous CatK null mice, phenotypes in young mice, bone mass, strength, resorption, and formation, overview. CatK-/- mice show higher bone mineral density at the central and distal femur. Central femur ultimate load is positively influenced by genotype, and is positively correlated with both cortical area and bone mineral content. Lumbar vertebral body ultimate load is also positively correlated to bone mineral content. Genotype does not influence the relationship of ultimate load to bone mineral content in either the central femur or vertebral body Mus musculus
