The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of aqua-acupuncture of Laennec N HO (Hominis placenta Cervi pontotrichum cornu Carthami semen). on trabecular area and physiological change in ovariectomized osteoporotic rats. This experiment was performed to .investigate an antiosteoporosis. effects of Laennec N HO(Hominis placenta Cervi pontotrichum cornu Carthmi semen) aqua-acupuncture on the osteoporosis induced by both ovariectomy in Rats. So rats were divided into Sham group and OVX group. OVX groups were divided into control group, Exp. I group, Exp II group and Exp III group). The Ratios of trabecular area seen in ephiphysis and diaphysis of tibia and lumbar vertebral body and physiological change were as follows. 1. In the proximal ephiphysis of tibia, Exp I II III groups were significantly increased compared to that in control group (p<0.05). 2. In the diaphysis of tibia, Exp III group were significantly increased compared to that in control group (p<0.05). 3. In the first lumbar vertebral body, Exp II group were significantly increased compared to that in control group. 4. In the cortical thickness index of tibia, Exp III III groups were significantly increased compared to that in control group. 5. Osteoca1cin was increased in the Exp II group than those of other Experiment groups and control group, and Phosphorus was decreased in the Exp I II group than that in control group, But a significant difference was not seen. GOT, GPT and Alkaline phosphatase were decreased in all Experiment groups than that in control group. But a significant difference was not seen. From the above results, it might be suggested that aqua-acupuncture Laennec N HO(Hominis placenta Cervi pontotrichum cornu Carthami semen) prevented the increase in bone turnover and the decrese in bone mass induced by OVX in rats.

In our study, osteoporosis was induced by ovariectomized in female Sprague-Daweley rats, and the prevention and treatment efficacy of the climacteric disease the postmenopausal Type I pattern was examined by using the experimental substance soybeans and arrowroot. After ovariectomy; the amount of estrogen was found to be reduced by 21.37$\%$ and it showed the tendency to be increased by 4.49$\%$ in T1 (extraction of soybeans group) and 7.62$\%$ in T2 (extraction of ferment soybeans group). The change of bone density, 14 weeks after ovariectomy in the femur, was decreased by 9.33$\%$ in N.C. group, and 5.46$\%$ in T3 (extraction of ferment arrowroot group). As pathological findings, the trabeculae of femur were detected to be abundant as normal and the frequency of the appearance of osteoclasts was very minimal. In the T3, the frequency of the appearance of the trabeculae of femur was increased to the level that could be distinguished. In regard to the accumulation of lipid in the bone marrow, the accumulation of lipid in the bone marrow was low as normal. However, in T3, the decrease to the level that could be distinguished was detected. In addition, in regard to the pathological findings of the uterus, normal uterine tissue findings were detected. In the T3, the minimal atrophy findings were detected. In conclusion, when the T3 was orally administered continuously for 14 weeks, it was thought that a certain proportion of the hormonal balance was maintained that functioned as a substance interfering the accumulation of fat, and it was considered to be of help in the treatment of not only osteoporosis Type I, but also for the prevention and treatment of various endocrinal diseases.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of Cervi Pontotrichum cornu and Carthami semen on the serum osteocalcin level, bone mineral density, bone trabecular area and cortical thickness index in ovariectomized rats. Femal Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 5 groups. Non-ovariectomized groups were divided into commertial diet fed(normal group) and calcium free basal diet fed(sham operation group). Ovariectomized groups were divided into 3groups, calcium free basal diet fed group(control group or ovariectomized group), 10% Cervi Pontotrichum cornu supplemented diet fed group and 10% Carthami semen supplemented diet fed group. After 4 weeks diet fed, serum osteocalcin level, bone mineral density, bone trabecular areas and cortical thickness index were analyzed. The bone mineral density and bone trabeculae area were significantly increased by Cervi Pontotrichum cornu and Carthami semen supplemented diet fed groups. The osteocalcin level was significantly decreased by Cervi Pontotrichum cornu and Carthami semen supplemented diet fed groups. The trabecular area(%) in epiphysis of tibia was significantly increased by Cervi Pontotrichum cornu and Carthami semen supplemented diet fed groups. The cortical thickness index in distal diaphysis of tibia was significantly increased by Cervi Pontotrichum cornu and Carthami semen supplemented diet fed groups. the alkaline phosphatase level was significantly decreased by Cervi Pontotrichum cornu and Carthami semen supplemented diet fed groups. These results suggest that Cervi Pontotrichum cornu and Carthami semen might have inhibitory effects on osteoporosis by increasing bone mineral density and accerelating bone formation in ovariectomized rats.
