Abstract:
Objective:To observe the effects of Yikunjing capsules on the bone histomorphometry indexes and the serum Interleukin-6 (IL-6) level in mice with osteoporosis.Methods:60 cases ofC57 female mice were randomly divided into 5 groups,such as model group (equal volume of normal saline),estrogen group (nilestriol,0.25 mg/kg),Yikunjing capsules high dose group (1.44 g/kg),Yikunjing capsules medium dose group (0.72 g/kg) and Yikunjing capsules low dose group (0.36 g/kg),sham group (equal volume of normal saline) were treated with sham operation.The mice in each group was intragastrically administrated for 70 days.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the serum IL-6 level.The bone histomorphometry index were detected with BI-2000 Medical Image Analysis System.And the Number of blood vessels in distal femoral metaphysis of each group was measured by CT.Results:Compared with the sham group,the width and area of trabecular bone,the thickness of cortical bone,area of trabecular bone,the number of osteoblasts,the bone mineral density and the number of blood vessels in model group were significantly reduced(P<0.05),while the number of osteoclasts and serum IL-6 level were significantly increased (P<0.05).Compared with the model group,above indexes in estrogen group,Yikunjing capsules high,medium,low dose group were improved (P<0.05),and the effect of Yikunjing capsules high dose group and estrogen group was almost the same (P>0.05).Conclusion:Yikunjing capsules can rectify the bone histomorphometry indexes reduce the serum IL-6 level and increase the number of blood vessels in mice with osteoporosis,and intragastrically administrating 1.44 g/kg Yikunjing capsules could get the better effect.
