Introduction: Clinic however, the possible mechanism of bone protection mechanism of Zuogui pill on osteoporosis is still largely unknown.
Methods: An osteoporosis model of postmenopausal breast cancer was generated by gavage of letrozole in mice with ovariectomized breast cancer. Female SPF BALB/c mice were divided into the normal group, pseudocastrated group, model group (letrozole), alendronate group (alendronate tablets) and lowdose, medium-dose and high-dose Zuogui pill groups. Each group was given gavage for 4 weeks according to the corresponding administration plan. Blood was collected from the eyeballs. Serum oestradiol (E2), Bone Alkaline Phosphatase (BALP) and amino terminal propeptide of type ? collagen (PINP) were detected by Enzyme-Related Immunosorbent Assays (ELISAs). After death, the right femur and tibia were taken and stain.. View More»
