Abstract:
BACKGROUND:The mechanical index is an important method for the evaluation of the therapeutic efficiency of drug treatment for osteoporosis animal models. OBJECTIVE: To explore the effects of various drug treatments on osteoporosis through a mechanical performance test about the femoral compression of rats. METHODS: Thirty-six Wistar female rats were randomized into six groups: normal control group, model group, Dan Qiparticles group, alpha-D3 group, premarin group, ipriflavone group, with six rats in each group. Osteoporosis models were made in al groups except for the normal control group, and after modeling, the rats in different groups were treated withDan Qi particles, alpha-D3 group, premarin and ipriflavone, respectively. After 15 weeks, the rats were kiled by abdominal aortic bloodletting to take out the left and right femurs that were placed on a universal testing machine to perform a compressive test at a speed of 5 mm/min. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The maximum load, maximum stress, maximum displacement, maximum strain, and elastic modulus were significantly lower in the model group than the other four groups (P < 0.05). There was no difference in different mechanical parameters between alpha-D3 group and model group as wel as between Dan Qi particles group and normal control group (P> 0.05). These findings indicate that osteoporosis leads to the variation of compression mechanical properties of the femur. There are good compression mechanical properties of the femur after treatment with premarin and ipriflavone, andDan Qi particles has the best effect.
