摘要

Abstract

Objective:

To investigate the mechanistic basis for the attenuation of bone degeneration by edible bird's nest (EBN) in ovariectomized rats.

Methods:

Forty-two female Sprage-Dawley rats were randomized into 7 groups (6 in each group). The ovariectomized (OVX) and OVX + 6%

and 1.5% EBN and OVX +estrogen groups were given standard rat chow alone

standard rat chow +6%

and 1.5% EBN

or standard rat chow +estrogen therapy (0.2mg/kg per day)

respectively. The sham-operation group was surgically opened without removing the ovaries. The control group did not have any surgical intervention. After 12 weeks of intervention

blood samples were taken for serum estrogen

osteocalcin

and osteoprotegerin

as well as the measurement of magnesium

calcium abd zinc concentrations. While femurs were removed from the surrounding muscles to measure bone mass density using the X-ray edge detection technique

then collected for histology and estrogen receptor (ER) immunohistochemistry.

Results:

Ovariectomy altered serum estrogen levels resulting in increased food intake and weight gain

while estrogen and EBN supplementation attenuated these changes. Ovariectomy also reduced bone ER expression and density

and the production of osteopcalcin and osteorotegerin

which are important pro-osteoplastic hormones that promote bone mineraliztion and density. Conversely

estrogen and EBN increased serum estrogen levels leading to increased bone ER expression

pro-osteoplastic hormone production and bone density (all

0.05).

Conclusion:

EBN could be used as a safe alternative to hormone replacement therapys for managing menopausal complications like bone degeneration.
