ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effects of Chinese medicine compound on bone density, biomechanics, histomorphometry of weightlessness rats simulated by tail suspension. Methods Fifty Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups with 10 rats each groupcontrol group, model group, and low dose, medium dose and high dose Chinese medicine compound treated suspension group, the experiment period was 21 days. BMD of femur and lumbar vertebrae were detected by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. The femoral biomechanics parameters and anti-compress ability of lumbar vertebrae were measured by three-point assay and compress test respectively. The quantitative structures of non- decalcified bone tissue sections were analyzed by histomorphometry. Result Compared with control group, BMD of femur and lumbar of model group decreased remarkably (P
