| Application: | Alendronate sodium trihydrate has been used:• for calcium phosphate nanoparticles (nCaP)/ bisphosphonate (BP) coating on titanium implants and analyze its osteogenic capacity • in osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSCs) isolated from aged osteoporosis patients- and healthy-person • to treat osteoblast progenitor cells and osteoblasts and study their effect on osteoblast behaviors using conventional assays and simple digital image analysis |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Alendronate is a nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate that is known to hinder the mevalonate pathway and limit osteoclastic function and activity. Alendronate sodium trihydrate is a bone resorption inhibitor, farnesyl diphosphate synthase inhibitor, and CD45 protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Alendronate sodium trihydrate is a bone resorption inhibitor; farnesyl diphosphate synthase inhibitor (IC50 = 460 nM); CD45 protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor. |
