## Abstract Ovariectomized rats have been used extensively and have received substantial acceptance as animal models for postmenopausal osteoporosis. However, little is known about the microscopic tissue properties of rat vertebral bone, especially during osteoporosis caused by estrogen depletion.
We compared the effects of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein, a naturally occurring isoflavone, to those of tyrphostin A25, tyrphostin A47, and herbimycin on avian osteoclasts in vitro. Inactive analogs daidzein and tyrphostin A1 were used to control for nonspecific effects. None of the tyrosi
