Structure-Activity Relationships for Inhibition of Farnesyl Diphosphate Synthase in Vitro and Inhibition of Bone Resorption in Vivo by Nitrogen-Containing Bisphosphonates

TL;DR: The potency of a wider range of nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates, including the highly potent, heterocycle-containing zoledronic acid and minodronate, is examined, finding a clear correlation between the ability to inhibit farnesyl diphosphate synthase in vitro, and to inhibit protein prenylation in cell-free extracts and in purified osteoclasts in vitro and in vivo.
