The invention discloses an experimental method of effects of DNA oxidative damage and bone cell apoptosis on avascular necrosis, the method comprises the following steps: experimental grouping and establishment of an animal model, preparation of specimens, histomorphology observation under a light microscope, observation by a transmission electron microscope, bone cell apoptosis situation detection by TUNEL (terminal dexynucleotidyl transferase(TdT)-mediated dUTP nick end labeling) method, bone marrow hematopoietic cell DNA oxidative damage detection by monoclonal antibody N45.1 immunohistochemistry method, and statistical analysis. According to the method, experiment animals are respectively killed in the second week and the fourth week after the last time of administration, and five animals are killed for each time in each group; bilateral femoral heads are taken for conventional fixed decalcification for stand-by testing, the number of vacant bone lacunas is counted by HE (hematoxylin-eosin) staining, the bone cell morphological change is observed by the electron microscope, the bone cell apoptosis situation is detected by the TUNEL method, the bone marrow hematopoietic cell DNA oxidative damage is detected by the immunohistochemistry method, and the relationship between SANFH ((steroid-induced avascular necrosis of femoral head)) and the bone marrow hematopoietic cell DNA oxidative damage and the bone cell apoptosis is explored, and provides new ideas for the further study of pathogenesis of the steroid induced avascular necrosis of femoral head.
