Objective To observe the effect of triptolide on destruction of bone and joint of collageninduced arthritis (CIA) mouse. Methods Female DBA/1 mice were double immunized at the base of the tail with bovine type Ⅱ collagen (C Ⅱ). CIA mice were randomly divided into model group, methotrexate-treated group and 8.18, 16.36, 32.72 ?g/kg triptolide-treated groups. Performance of arthritis were observed regularly. Combined with radiologieal, histological methods were used, and the number of osteoelasts in bone was evaluated and analyzed with TRAP stainning. Results The clinical score and arthritis incidence of CIA mice were significantly decreased, and the number of osteoelasts in bone cavity reduced by treatment of triptolide. X-ray showed that the surface of bone of each articular was eroded, the joint space was narrow, BMD values of lumbar and knee were decreased compared with normal mice. Triptolide could significantly inhibit the damage of bones and joints of CIA mice, and increase the BMD values of lumbar and knee. Conclusion Triptolide can inhibit the damage of bones and joints of CIA mice.
