ABSTRACT

@#ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects of exercise training on bone histomorphometry of ovariectomized rats.Methods46 SD rats were randomly divided into the normal control group (group A), ovariectomized group (group B) , estrogen supplement group (group C) and exercise training group (group D). The rats of group A had a sham operation, while that of other groups was ovariectomized. 3 months after operation, the rats had been treated for 3 months. The rats of group C were given estradiol, and the rats of group D were trained by exercise. The tibia sections were studied by histomorphometric analysis.ResultsThe values of the trabeclar area, trabeclar area%, trabeclar perimeter and trabeclar number of group D were significantly higher than that of group B. The values of the trabeclar separation, osteoclast number/mm2 and osteoclast number/mm of group D were the least in all groups, which had been ovariectomized. The values of the labeled perimeter % mineral apposition rate, bone formation rate of group D were superior to that of all groups.ConclusionThe exercise training can increase bone mass of ovariectomized rats, which had double effects of promoting bone formation and restraining bone absorption.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate effects of electro-acupuncture (EA) on Du Meridian on the water channel aquaporin-4 (AQP-4) expression and hind limbs function recovery in experimental spinal cord injured rats.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>One hundred and fifty SD rats were divided into the normal group, the model group and the EA group, with 50 rats in each group, modified Allen method was used to establish spinal cord injury model in the model and EA group. Rats in the EA group was EA on Dazhui and Ming men acupoints after modelling successfully. At the 1st, 3rd, 7th, 14th and 21th day after injury, the hind limbs function of rats was evaluated by BBB scales respectively, and the AQP-4 expression in spinal cord tissue was determined by immunohistochemistry technique and quantity analysed with image analyzer.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>At the 1st day after spinal cord injury, the AQP-4 expression was significantly increased in gray matter and white matter of spinal cord in the model group and the EA group, which reached the peak at the 3rd day, but showed significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.05), and the difference at the 7th, 14th and 21th day became more significant (P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>EA on Du Meridian can down-regulate AQP-4 expression after spinal cord injury, inhibit spinal cord edema for alleviating secondary spinal cord lesion, so as to protect the residual normal spinal cord tissues and promote the rebuilding of nervous tissues.</p>
