Objective and hypotheses: The purpose was to get the basic data of optimum serum concentration of estrogen in maximizing pubertal growth spurt, and decreasing the acceleration of epiphyseal closure of long bones.Method: i) Fifteen female SD rats (13-week aged; post pubertal growth spurt) were randomly divided into three groups. After 1 week, the group 1 were injected subcutaneously with sesame oil, as a control, group 2 were with 10 μg/kg per week o...

Objective and hypotheses: The purpose was to get the basic data of optimum serum concentration of oestrogen in pubertal growth spurt, minimising the decrease of bone mineral density or acceleration of epiphyseal closure of long bones.Method: i). Fifteen female S.D. rats (4-week aged) were ovariectomised to inhibit their endogenous oestrogen effect and randomly divided into three groups. After 1 week, the group 1 were injected subcutaneousl...
