Effects of tanshinol on bone mineralisation of wild-type AB strains zebrafish larval skull. Images of (A) the dorsal aspect head bone stained with alizarin red in wild-type AB strains zebrafish larvae at 9 days' postfertilisation (dpf) with or without exposure to tanshinol (0.5μM, 1μM, 2.5μM, 5μM); (B) the effect of tanshinol on bone mineralisation area in 9-dpf zebrafish; and (C) the effect of tanshinol on bone mineralisation integral optical density in 9-dpf zebrafish. Con = control, egg water; IOD = integral optical density; T0.5 = tanshinol 0.5μM; T1 = tanshinol 1μM; T2.5 = tanshinol 2.5μM; T5 = tanshinol 5μM. Data are given as mean ± standard deviation (n ≥ 9). *p < 0.05 versus control.
