Article Synopsis
- This study aimed to explore the impact of chitosan oligosaccharide on bone health and inflammatory pathways in mice suffering from osteoporosis and periodontitis.
- Thirty rats were divided into three groups: a control group, an ovariectomized group with periodontitis, and a treatment group receiving chitosan oligosaccharide to assess its therapeutic effects over 90 days.
- Results indicated significant differences in bone density, serum markers, and periodontal health between the treatment and control groups, suggesting chitosan oligosaccharide may have beneficial effects on bone metabolism and inflammation.
