Bisphosphonates: Mechanisms of Action [PDF]
Endocrine Reviews, 1998 The geminal bisphosphonates are a class of drug, developed in the last 30 years, characterised by a P-C-P bond. Consequently, they are analogues of pyrophosphate but are resistant to chemical and enzymatic hydrolysis. The bisphosphonates bind strongly to hydroxyapatite crystals and inhibit their formation and dissolution. This physicochemical effect on
