Effects of kinsenoside on expression of RANKL-regulated genes. a BMs were preincubated for 2 h with indicated concentrations of kinsenoside and then activated for 24 h with RANKL. RANK and TRAF6 mRNAs were amplified by RT-PCR. b Total RNA from BMs was isolated on the indicated days after RANKL incubation, and mRNA expression of TRAP, DC-STAMP, CAK, and MMP-9 was analyzed by RT-PCR. c BMs were preincubated for 2 h with indicated concentrations of kinsenoside and then activated for 24 h with RANKL. TRAP, DC-STAMP, CAK, and MMP-9 mRNAs were amplified by RT-PCR. The quantitative data are shown in d. Values are mean ± SD (n = 3). ^## p < 0.01 as compared with the control group. Values not sharing a common superscript differ significantly
