Zusammenfassung
Previous studies have demonstrated the effects of sclerostin antibody (Scl-Ab) and parathyroid hormone (1-34, PTH) on healing in osteoporosis; however, reports about the combined effects of Scl-Ab plus PTH on osteoporosis are limited. This study was designed to investigate the impact of combined treatment with Scl-Ab and PTH on osteoporosis healing in ovariectomized (OVX) rats. After bilateral ovariectomy, 12 weeks were allowed to pass for the establishment of standard conditions for osteoporosis in animal models. The rats then randomly received a vehicle (control), Scl-Ab (25 mg/kg body weight, twice weekly), P…
