2. Figure 1
Effects of Cimicifuga racemosa on bone as reflected by changes in bone markers in women (panel A), or cell activity and gene expression (panels B and C, respectively) in the MC3T3-E1 osteoblastic cell line. The data represent the mean ± standard error of the mean and are expressed as the ratio to their corresponding baseline values. White boxes: untreated control. Black boxes: treatment with Cimicifuga racemosa. NTx: N-telopeptide of type I collagen. Ca/Cr: calcium–creatinine ratio. ALP: alkaline phosphatase. β-GP: β-glycerophosphate. Runx-2: Runt-related transcription factor-2. ∗P<.05 when comparing both groups.
