Abstract
In calvaria cells cultured for 6 days in the presence of dichloromethanediphosphonate (Cl2MDP) (0.025 – 250 µM), the synthesis of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) was inhibited by up to 90 %. Inhibition of PGE2 synthesis might be one mechanism whereby this diphosphonate inhibits bone resorption. This effect is not common to all diphosphonates since 25 µM 3-amino-1-hydroxypropane-1,1-diphosphonate (AHPDP) stimulated the synthesis of PGE2.Keywords
