Abstract
ABSTRACT Objectives：The present study has been undertaken to investigate the effects of Cervi Cornu on treatment of osteoporosis in ovariectomized rats.Method：In this experiment, the rats were ovariectomized. Rats were adm inistered by Cervi Cornu. The levels of bone mineral density, osteocalcin, ALP, calcium, phosphorus in serum, calcium, phosphorus, deoxypyridinoline in urine, ash weight of bone, body weight and uterus weight were measured. Results：1.The levels of fibula-tibial bone mineral density were signifi cantly increased in comparison with OVX group at 8 weeks in Cervi Cornu group. 2.The levels of serum osteocalcin showed significant decrease in comparison with OVX group at 4 weeks in Cervi Cornu group. The levels of serum ALP and phosphorus showed significant decrease in comparison with OVX group at 4, 8 weeks in Cervi Cornu group group. The levels of serum calcium showed significant increase in comparison with OV X group at 4, 8 weeks in Cervi Cornu group.3.The levels of urine calcium, phosphorus and deoxypyridinoline showed significant decrease in comparison with OVX group in Cervi Cornu group.4.The levels of fibula-tibial ash weight showed significant increase in comparison with OVX group in Cervi Cornu group.5.The levels of body weight were significantly decreased in comparison with OVX group at 4, 8 weeks in Cervi Cornu group.6.The levels of uterus weight were significantly increased in comparison with OVX group in Cervi Cornu group.Conclusion：Reviewing these experimetal results, it appeared that Cervi Cornu had efficacy on treatment of osteoporosis. Key Words：Cervi Cornu, treatment of osteoporosis, ovariectomized rats.
