Analysis of the serum oxidant and antioxidant parameters. MDA (A), SOD (B), LDH (C), GSH (D). Data were the means ± SD (n = 6 for each group)#.P < 0.05 and ## P < 0.01, vs. the SHAM group.*P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01, vs. the DEX group. Effect of LA on apoptosis protein (Caspase-3, Caspase-9, Bcl-2) expression on the femur. The protein expression levels of Caspase-3 (E), Caspase-9 (F), Bcl-2 (G) were detected by western blotting. GAPDH was used as the loading control. Data were the means ± SD (n = 6 for each group). ## P < 0.01, vs. the SHAM group. **P < 0.01, vs. the DEX group.
