Figure 2

Representative micro-computed tomography images of trabecular bone microarchitecture in the distal femurs.

Notes: The OVX rats presented notable reductions in trabecular number and trabecular area compared with the sham rats. CIT, CIT-SO, and EV partially prevented OVX-induced trabecular bone loss and significantly improved trabecular bone mass and microarchitecture. CIT-SO significantly improved trabecular bone microarchitecture compared with CIT.

Abbreviations: OVX, ovariectomized; SO, suet oil; EV, estradiol valerate; CIT, circinal–icaritin; H, high dosage; M, medium dosage; L, low dosage.
