Pamidronate is an amino bisphosphonate that inhibits farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP) synthase (IC50s = 0.85 and 0.20 µM in J774 cells and for human recombinant FPP synthase, respectively).{41320} In rats, it inhibits bone resorption when used at doses of 16 µmol/kg per day, impairs long bone growth at ?40 µmol/kg per day, and has anti-hypercalcemic effects in a rat hypercalcemia model.{41318,41317} At high concentrations, pamidronate induces activation of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), NF-?B, and caspase-3, leading to cell death, which can be prevented by activated protein C.{41319} Formulations containing pamidronate have been used to treat hypercalcemia, Paget’s disease, metastatic bone disease, and multiple myeloma.
