The efects of alone and combined treatment of Tarantula cubensis alcoholic extract and Methenolone Enanthate on two long bones of young Rats

The aim of this study was to determine the effects alone and combined treatment Tarantula cubensis alcoholic extract (TCAE) Methenolone Enanthate (ME) on morphometric parameters humerus femur in young rats. In study, 36 five–week–old Wistar Albino rats were used. animals divided into 4 groups; Control group (n:6, normal saline solution, 0.2 mL·rat-1, subcutaneously –SC–), TCAE (Tarantula extract, SC), ME (Methenolone Enanthate), 10 mg·kg-1, intramuscularly –IM–) + SC Enanthate, IM). Drug treatments done once a week for 7 weeks. At end experiment, all euthanized their bones resected determined. No statistical differences determined (P>0.05) between groups terms anatomical reference points (length, corpus thickness, cavum medullare diameter, cortex thickness) bones. conclusion, it found that (at dose) had no growing period. However, these may not be observed at high–dose long–term
