Objectives : To select the optimal ranges showing obvious synergic anti-osteoporotic potential after adjust mixed formula consisted of Morindae Radix(MR) and Cistanchis Herba(CH) as compared with those of each single formula or risedronate sodium(RES) using bilateral ovariectomized(OVX) female mice.
METHODS: Fourteen groups, total eight sham or 104 OVX mice were selected based on the body weights at 34 days after OVX surgery. After that, 9 types mixed compositions, single formula of MR and CH, and RES were orally administered for 35 days. And we measured changes in body weight and gain, femur weight, bone mineral density(BMD), bone strength(failure load) and mineral content - calcium(Ca) and inorganic phosphorus(IP), osteocalcin contents and bone specific alkaline phosphatase(bALP) activities of all mice.
RESULTS: The OVX-induced estrogen-deficient osteoporotic signs were significantly inhibited by 35 days of continuous oral treatment of all treated mice as compared with OVX control mice. Especially, MR:CH 1:3 and 1:1 mixed formula treated mice showed significantly more favorable inhibitory activities against estrogen-deficient osteoporosis symptoms as compared to those of each single formula of MR and CH. Although RES also ameliorated the decreases of the femur BMD, strength and trabecular bone architectures through the inhibited the increases of bone turnover, but they did not critically influenced on the bone formations.
CONCLUSION: The results suggest that MR:CH 1:3 mixed formula showed somewhat lower anti-resoptive effects as compared to those of RES, but they also showed bone formation effects. therefore, it is expected that MR:CH 1:3 mixture will be promising as a potent protective agents for relieving the osteoporosis in menopausal women.
