Abstract

Background

Rapid, non-genomic estrogen receptor (ER) signaling plays an integral role in mediating the tissue selective properties of ER modulators. Icariin, a bone bioactive flavonoid, has been reported to selectively activate non-genomic ERα signaling in in vitro and in vivo studies.
Purpose

The mechanisms underlying the estrogen-like bone protective effects of icariin are not fully understood, especially those that are related to insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-1) signaling. The bone protective effects of icariin were investigated in female mature ovariectomized (OVX) rats and the signaling of IGF-IR- ERα cross-talk was determined in osteoblastic cells.
