    Product Description

    Tiludronate is a bisphosphonate that inhibits bone resorption.1,2 It inhibits pit formation induced by primary mouse osteoclast-like multinucleated cells (OCLs) and decreases primary mouse OCL-induced increases in dentine resorption levels in dentine slices when used at a concentration of 100 µM.1 Tiludronate (300 µM) inhibits secretion of casein-degrading proteinase, proteoglycan-degrading proteinase, and collagenase induced by colony-stimulating factor (CSF) in primary rabbit synovial cells and chondrocytes.3 It decreases the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), a marker of inflammation, and hindlimb paw levels of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in a rat model of M. tuberculosis-induced arthritis. Tiludronate also reduces paw redness, swelling, and volume, and increases the latency to fall in the rotarod test in the same model.4 Formulations containing tiludronate have been used in the treatment of Paget's disease of bone.
