Osteoporosis is a condition of thinning of bone and bone tissues as a result of the loss of bone density over a long period of time.
The condition is a widespread degenerative disease of skeletal joints and often associated with senescence invertebrates due to excessive or abnormal mechanical loading of weight-bearing joints, arising from heavy long-term use or specific injuries and considered as a major health problem in both elderly men and women.
Scientists as of today do not know the exact causes of osteoporosis. However, they do know that certain factors are associated with the onset and progression of the disease.
Osteoporosis is the common disease among the elderly, probably due to the aging effect that induces nutrition deficiency such as
* Vitamin D insufficiency and reduced calcium absorption,
* Reduced hormone production, the drop of estrogen levels after menopause, can speeds up bone loss.
* Reduced production of bone mass and increased bone reabsorption due to the balance shifts in favor of osteoclasts compared to those of osteoblasts.

Osteoclastogenesis is a procedure that included many stages, that interfere with the specific stage of the process, diseases associated with imbalanced osteoclasts and osteoblast that may be preventable in the future.
The osteoclast is a type of cell differentiated from another type of cell called a macrophage that breaks down the bone that leads to bone resorption.
In other words, in osteoporotic patients, bone resorption is far more exceedingly to bone formation.
Furthermore, the imbalance of osteoclasts and osteoblast also is found in patients with Paget's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, osteopetrosis, periodontal disease, and bone cancer metastases.
Angelica or Dang Qui is a herb of Genus Angelica from the family Apiaceae, indigenous to China. The herb has been used as a Queen herb in traditional Chinese medicine antispasmodic and vasodilatory agent, and to balance the hormones in women for a normal menstrual cycle and menstruation and strengthen heart, spleen, kidneys, and liver for both men and women, etc. In other words, it is used to treat gynecological ailments, fatigue, mild anemia, and high blood pressure. It has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, etc.
On finding a potential compound for the improvement of bone mineral density, researchers examined the phytochemical Ligustilide (LIG), the main component of A. sinensis anti-osteoporotic effects.
According to the tested analysis, LIG significantly ameliorated inhibition of bone formation in zebrafish caused by prednisolone.

Furthermore, the application also showed a strongly promoted osteoblast differentiation, including that of the pre-osteoblastic cell line MC3T3-E1 and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells by reducing the oxidative stress to induce cell apoptosis by free radical H2O2 and enhancing the protein (Bcl-2) associated with anti-apoptotic functioning
The promotion of bone density of LIG was also found to induce the metabolic reaction of EGFR and ERK1/2 associated with instructions for making a receptor protein involved in bone formation by blocking the GPR30 signaling to induce bone mass increasing.
Collectively, researchers said, "the results reveal that GPR30 is a positive switch for LIG to increase bone formation via regulation of EGFR, and these results provide evidence for the potential of LIG to treat osteoporosis".
