title: [Effect of exercise on bone mineral element metabolism and relative hormones in ovariectomized rats].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the effect of exercise on bone mineral element metabolism and relative hormones in ovariectomized rats.
  
  
  METHODS
  24 female SD rats were divided randomly into 4 groups: (1) normal control, (2) sham ovariectomy, (3) ovariectomy (OVX), (4) OVX + exercise.
  
  
  RESULTS
  (1) Ca, Mg, S,Co,Mn, Zn reduced obviously and P increases in bone of the OVX rats. (2) E2, P, TSH, T4, CT, Cortisol, GH reduced obviously and IL-6, FSH, LH increased obviously in serum of the OVX rats. (3) Exercised opposed the changes of Ca, Mg, S, Co, Mn, Zn and P in bone as well as the changes of E2, P, TSH, T4, CT, Cortisol, GH and IL-6, FSH, LH in serum of the OVX rats.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Exercise may correct the changes of bone mineral element and the relative hormones in ovariectomized rats.
