a Representative images of UHMWPE-induced bone resorption and the rescue action of PCDs in the treated group observed via SEM analysis. b The graph illustrating the number of bone resorption pits in the PCDs group compared to UHMWPE group. The number of resorption pits was analyzed using Image-J software. Data are represented as mean ± SD; * indicates P < 0.05 compared with normal control and # indicates P < 0.05 compared with the UHMWPE group to PCDs-treated group
