Analysis of TRAP activity in LTG-treated GIOP fish. (A) Percentage of TRAP-positive scales in adult zebrafish treated with different LTG concentrations with (PN vs 10pM LTG, p < 0.001; PN vs 100pM LTG, p < 0.001; PN vs 1 nM LTG) or without PN (CTR vs 10pM LTG, p < 0.001; CTR vs 100pM LTG, p < 0.001; CTR vs 1 nM LTG, p < 0.001; CTR vs 10 nM LTG, p < 0.001; CTR vs 100 nM LRG, p < 0,01). PN alone induced TRAP activity in 100% of scales (CTR vs 80 μM PN, p < 0.001) whereas 1 nM LTG suppressed PN-dependent TRAP activation (1 nM LTG + PN 80 μM vs PN 80 μM, p < 0.001, −90%). (B)Histochemical TRAP staining of scale treated with PN shows great resorption lacunae (purple staining) in all scales (100%) while only 10% of scales from 1 nM LTG+PN fish shows slight TRAP activity. (C) Biochemical TRAP analysis performed on scales confirms that 1 nM LTG treatment prevents the PN-dependent increase of TRAP activity (PN 80 μM vs CTR, p < 0.001, +99%; 1 nM LTG + PN 80 μM vs PN 80 μM, p < 0.001, −53%).
