Table 1.

Creatinine, calcium, CTX/TRAP index, BGP, and PINP serum levels in female Wistar rats at the end of the study. Six-month-old rats at the beginning of the study were ovariectomized (OVX) or sham-operated (SHAM) and randomized in the following groups: SHAM group (SHAM) treated with vehicle for 3 months; ovariectomized group (OVX) treated also with vehicle for 3 months; ovariectomized group treated with Kalsis at a dose of 25 mg/kg/day, for 3 months (OVX + K25). Statistical significance P < 0.05: a versus SHAM.

SHAM OVX OVX + K25
Creatinine (mg/dL) 0.66 ± 0.04 0.71 ± 0.13 0.65 ± 0.03
Calcium (mg/dL) 9.2 ± 0.05 9.2 ± 0.4 9.1 ± 0.2
CTX/TRAP index 2.6 ± 1.1 12.5 ± 4.5a 16.5 ± 5.6a
BGP (ng/mL) 67.4 ± 1.1 128.2 ± 23.8a 149.9 ± 33.4a
PINP (ng/mL) 4.8 ± 1.1 7.5 ± 2.8a 7.2 ± 1.4a
