Effects of panax notoginsenosides on bone histomorphometry in rats with hyperlipidemia-induced osteoporosis / 中国临床药理学与治疗学

ABSTRACT

AIM:To explore the effects of panax notoginsenosides(PNS)on bone histomorphometry in rats with hyperlipidemia-induced osteoporosis.METHODS:Thirty 3-month-old Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups with 10 per group as follows.Control group was intragastrically given distilled water at the dose of 5 mL?kg-1?d-1 for 20 weeks;Model group was intragastrically given lipid emulsion at the dose of 5 mL?kg-1?d-1 for 20 weeks;PNS preventing group was intragastrically given lipid emulsion at the dose of 5 mL?kg-1?d-1 in the morning and PNS at the dose of 5 mL?kg-1?d-1 at afternoon for 20 weeks.At the end of the experiment,the right longitudinal proximal tibial metaphyseal parameters of rats were performed undecalcifiedly and used for bone histomorphometry analysis.And the blood serum contents of FFA,TG,TC,HDL-C and LDL-C were measured by biochemical analysis.RESULTS:Compared with model group,the blood serum contents of FFA,TC and LDL-C were decreased and HDL-C was increased significantly(P
