“…These compounds have been shown to decrease inflammatory activity and joint destruction in animal models of arthritis (31,32), whereas small open as well as controlled studies in RA patients have suggested that they decrease clinical signs of arthritis activity (16,(33)(34)(35). In the present study, an effect of pamidronate on disease activity or the progression of radiologic signs of joint destruction could not be substantiated.…”

“…APD and C12MDP do not behave identically in vivo (9) and other differences in the mechanisms of action of these compounds are evident in the present in vitro study. C12MDP appears to work as a cytotoxin in the presence of bone, and this seems adequate to account for the diminution in macrophage-mediated resorption reported above and, perhaps, in animals treated with this P-C-P. APD, on the other hand, suppresses resorption without killing the resorbing cells and without the intervention by bone.…”

“…Interestingly, APD effectively decreases bone resorption in vivo at much lower doses than does C12MDP. There is no clear explanation for this difference in potency, but it may relate to the observed effects of APD on the mononuclear phagocyte system (9). Cells of the mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS) have the potential to regulate osteoclast activity (e.g., by producing prostaglandin E2) and APD might alter this aspect of MPS function.…”

“…It was originally thought that PCPs might inhibit bone resorption through physicochemical effects on hydroxyapatite dissolution (1 1). More recently it has become clear that PCPs have a wide variety of effects on cells thought to be involved in bone turnover, such as osteoblasts (12,13) and cells belonging to the mononuclear phagocyte system (14)(15)(16). However, the relative potencies with which different PCPs inhibit crystal dissolution or cause most of their cellular effects in vitro differ from the relative potencies of these compounds in experimental animals or as therapeutic agents in man.…”
