Risedronate
Chemical Name: P,P'-[1-Hydroxy-2-(3-pyridonyl)ethylidene]bis-phosphonic acid sodium salt
Purity: ≥99%
Biological Activity
Risedronate is an orally active biphosphonate that inhibits farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) synthase (IC50 = 100 nM). Exhibits antiproliferative and proapoptotic activity in numerous tumor cell lines and inhibits osteoclast-mediated bone resorption in vivo.Technical Data
