Biochemical parameters in rats from various experimental groups. The serum activity or expression of (A) ALP, (B) Ca, (C) TRAP and (D) P were detected using a biochemical analyzer. Control, untreated rats; PRED, rats received PRED for 4 weeks; PRED + ALN, rats received PRED and ALN for 4 weeks; PRED + β-Ecd, rats received PRED and β-Ecd (5 or 10 mg/kg) for 4 weeks. Data are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation. *P<0.05, **P<0.01 vs. control; #P<0.05, ##P<0.01 vs. PRED. ALP, alkaline phosphatase; TRAP, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase; Ca, calcium; P, phosphorus; PRED, prednisolone; ALN, alendronate; β-Ecd, β-ecdysterone.
