Methanol Extract of Euchelus asper Prevents Bone Resorption in Ovariectomised Mice Model
Figure 2
Histological study of the tibial trabeculation after the ovariectomy and EAME treatment. Ovariectomised mice were orally administered with EAME for 30 days. The tibia was harvested after the termination of administration of the extract. The tibia was formalin-fixed, decalcified, dehydrated in alcohol, fixed in paraffin, and Hematoxylin and Eosin stained (magnification 10x). (a) OVX control, (b) Sham control, (c) estradiol treated group, (d) EAME 200 mg/kg, (e) EAME 100 mg/kg, (f) EAME 50 mg/kg, and (g) EAME 25 mg/kg, where blue star indicates bone marrow spaces. Black arrow indicates tibial trabeculation.
