Salvianolic Acid B Prevents Bone Loss in Prednisone-Treated Rats through Stimulation of Osteogenesis and Bone Marrow Angiogenesis
Figure 3
Body weight (g) changes during the experimental period.
Body weight measurements from vehicle (aging) control (CON), Sal B40 mg/kg/d alone (B40), prednisone alone (GC), GC plus 40 mg Sal B/kg/d (GC+B40) and GC plus 80 mg Sal B/kg/d (GC+B80) treated rats. Only the GC treated rats showed a significant 10% lower body weight versus CON. Significant weight loss began at 10 weeks post treatment. *P<0.05, ** P<0.01 vs CON; #P<0.05, ##P<0.01 vs GC.
