RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Active bone morphogenetic protein (BMP-2) reduction can cause severe symptoms like osteoporosis. In addition, there is estrogen receptor (ER) in osteoblast, osteoclast and bone marrow stromal cells, indicating a direct effect of estrogen on bone tissues.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of Chinese medicine of Jiangzhi Zhuanggu on BMP-2 and ER expression in rats with prey.hyperlipidemia induced osteoporosis.METHODS: A total of 27 adult SD rats, of either gender, weighing 180-230 g, were randomly divided into three groups. In the normal control group, rats were intragastrically infused with 5 mL/kg normal saline every morning and afternoon. In the model group, the rats were infused with 5 mL/kg high-fat diet in the morning and 5 mL/kg normal saline in the afternoon. In the Chinese medicine group, 5 mL/kg high-fat diet was infused in the morning and 5 mL/kg Chinese medicine of Jiangzhi Zhuanggu water extract in the afternoon. After 8 weeks, expression levels of BMP-2 and ER in bone tissue was detected with immunohistological methods, and ER mRNA level of bone tissue in rats was detected by in situ hybridization.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with the model group, the BMP-2 and ER expression in the bone tissue was significantly increased (P ＜ 0.01), and ER mRNA level increased following Chinese medicine treatment. Results show that Chinese medicine of Jiangzhi Zhuanggu could increase BMP-2 and ER expression in the osteoporosis bone tissue, and improve osteoporosis effectively.
RESUMO
Objective To study osteoporosis associated with hyperlipidemia;To research high cholesterol se-rum and Jiangzhizhuanggu-containing serum intervention rat bone marrow stromal cells BMP-2 expression changes. Methods Adult rat femur by density gradient centrifugation separation of bone marrow stromal cells, cultured cells to the third generation, and was identified by flow cytometry. The third generation cells, were randomly divided into three groups. Normal serum control group: two percent blank senun (volume ratio); High cholesterol serum injury group: fi-nal concentration of 4 mmol/L, high cholesterol serum; medicine + pretreatment serum high cholesterol serum injury, group :2% senun Chinese medicine(volume ratio) after pretreatment 2 hours + final concentration of 4 mmol/L, high cholesterol serum. Total RNA was isolated from cells recovered. BMP-2 mRNA expression was detected. And analyzed statistically. Results (1) Blank serum compared with the control group,high cholesterol serum cultured bone mar-row stromal cells proliferation was inhibited. BMP-2 mRNA expression significantly decreased(P < 0.01) . (2) Jiang-zhizhuanggu solution containing serum protection two hours later to join a high cholesterol serum group, the cell growth conditions improved significantly, BMP-2 mRNA expression significantly increased than pure high cholesterol serum injured group(P <0.01) . Conclusion Solution's Jiangzhizhuanggu containing serum can enhance high cholesterol serum environment bone manow stromal cells BMP-2 mRNA expression, significantly improved bone marrow stromal cell growth state is conducive to the treatment of osteoporosis.
