Allolobophora caliginosa coelomic fluid and extract alleviate glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis in mice by suppressing oxidative stress and regulating osteoblastic/osteoclastic-related markers

89 views | Feb 16 2023

This study investigated the chemo-preventive activity of A.calignosa coelomic fluid and extract on glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis in mice, revealing that both showed chemo-preventive activity by inhibiting oxidative stress and regulating expression and activity of osteoblast/osteoclast-related markers, resulting in increased bone mineral density and decreased activity of alkaline phosphatase and parathyroid hormone.
