  • Aging is characterized by an age-dependent reduction in bone density. Pronounced bone loss by postmenopausal estrogen deficiency induces a bad effect on dynamic balance of bone metabolism. When the bone density is reduced to the level below the fracture threshold, the risk for fracture is greatly increased. The purpose of this study is to examine what are the effects of the Yuklinzu(YLZ: 毓麟珠) on the ovariectomized rat model of postmenopausal osteoporosis. The results of the experiment are as follows: Body weight in control group showed significant increase in comparison with sham, but that in YLZ-treated showed no change in comparison with control. The level of serum albumin in control group showed significant decrease in comparison with sham. That in YLZ-treated was slightly decreased in comparison with control. The level of serum ALP activity in control group showed significant increase in comparison with sham, but that in YLZ-treated was significantly decreased in comparison with control. The level of serum phosphorous in control group showed significant increase in comparison with sham, but that in YLZ-treated showed no change in comparison with control. The level of serum calcium in control group showed no change in comparison with sham, but that in YLZ-treated was significantly decreased in comparison with control. The level of serum GOT in control group showed no change in comparison with sham, but that in YLZ-treated was significantly decreased in comparison with control. The level of serum GPT did not significant change among the three groups. The level of serum estrogen in control group showed slightly increased in comparison with sham, but that in YLZ-treated showed no change in comparison with control. The level of serum T3 in control group showed no change in comparison with sham, and that in YLZ-treated showed no change in comparison with control. The level of serum T4 in control group showed significant increase in comparison with sham, but that in YLZ-treated was significantly decreased in comparison with control. Mechanical strength of the femur neck in control group showed significant decrease in comparison with sham. That in YLZ-treated showed slightly increased in comparison with control. Trabecular bone area as well as trabecular thickness in control group showed significant decrease in comparison with sham. Those in YLZ-treated showed significant increase in comparison with control. Trabecular number and did not significant change among the three groups. Trabecular separation only in YLZ-treated showed significant decrease in comparison with control. Osteoclast number and oseoblast surface in control group showed significant increase in comparison with sham. Those in YLZ-treated showed slightly decreased in comparison with control. According to the above these results, YLZ has shown to be capable of preventing and curing osteoporosis caused by old-aged and postmenopause.

  • Objectives : This study was performed to compare the preventive effect of water extracts from Saponariae Vaccariae Semen(SVS) and Melandryi Firmi Herba(MFH) on hyperlipidemia and liver damage induced by alcohol. Methods : Except for the normal group, I fed rat on 25% alcohol for 55 days. And each extract was administrated for the same period. I measured the serum component in rat's blood, body weight and weight of liver. Results : At first, I observed effects of SVS and MFH on hyperlipidemia induced by alcohol. SVS and MFH group didn't show the significant decrease of total cholesterol in comparison with those of the control group. SVS and MFH group showed the significant increase of HDL-cholesterol in comparison with those of the control group. SVS group showed the significant decrease of triglyceride in comparison with those of the control group, but MFH group didn't show the significant decrease of triglyceride in comparison with those of the control group. SVS group showed the significant increase of body weight in comparison with those of the control group at 4weeks and 8weeks. But, MFH group didn't show the significant changes of body weight in comparison with those of the control group at 4weeks and 8weeks. By the way, SVS group showed the significant decrease of triglyceride in comparison with those of MFH group. SVS group showed the significant increase of body weight in comparison with those of MFH group at 8weeks. At second, I observed effects of SVS and MFH on liver damage induced by alcohol. SVS and MFH group showed the significant decrease of AST(aspartate aminotransferase), ALT(alanine aminotransferase), ALP(alkaline phosphatase) and LDH(lactate dehydrogenase) in comparison with those of the control group. SVS group showed the significant increase of liver weight in comparison with those of the control group, but MFH group didn't show the significant increase of liver weight in comparison with those of the control group. By the way, SVS group showed the significant increase of liver weight in comparison with those of MFH group. Conclusions : Reviewing these experimental results, it suggests that water extracts from SVS and MFH have pharmaceutical preventive efficacy on hyperlipidemia and liver damage induced by alcohol. Therefore further additional study should be conducted to elucidate the pharmaceutical efficacy of these in depth.
