The effects of GLY extracts on bone resorption in ligature-induced periodontitis. (A) Experimental design and the points of linear measurement of the cement-enamel junction (CEJ) to the alveolar bone crest (ABC) by micro-CT analysis. (B) Body weights of rats on day 20 from the placement of ligature. Control; group of oral administration of distilled water for 20 days (n = 6), GLY admin.; group of oral administration with 60 mg/kg of GLY extracts for 20 days (n = 12). (C) Representative micro-CT images of the frontal and sagittal sections of maxillary secondary molars from rats. (D) Distance from the CEJ to the ABC as a marker of alveolar bone resorption in micro-CT. Data are presented as the mean ± SD from six or twelve rats per group. Double asterisk indicates p < 0.01. NS indicates no significant differences.
