Biological evaluations of novel 2,3,3-Trisphosphonate in osteoclastic and osteoblastic activities [PDF]
Bisphosphonates (BPs) are the first line treatment for many bone diseases including hypercalcimia associated with bone malignancies. In this paper, we introduce a new analogue of bisphosphonate called the 2,3,3-Trisphosphonate (2,3,3-TriPP) that was ...

Effect of alendronate and platelet-rich plasma in tendon-bones integration in sheep anterior cruciate ligament surgery [PDF]
Context: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction often faces challenges due to poor integration of the tendon with bone. Aims: To evaluate the potential benefits of alendronate and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in enhancing tendon-to-bone ...
