Agac lysate in combination with tensile strain did not impact on expression of bone remodelling genes. Gene expression of receptor of NFk-B ligand (a RANKL), osteoprotegerin (b OPG) and RANKL/OPG ratio (c) after treatment with Agac lysate and tensile strain; n = 6; AU arbitrary units. Statistics: ordinary ANOVA with Holm-Sidak’s post hoc (RANKL, OPG) or Welch-corrected ANOVA with Games-Howell post-hoc tests (RANKL/OPG ratio)
