摘要
The P2X(2/3) receptor has an important role in the nociceptive transmission. Minodronic acid is a third third-generation bisphosphonate and a potent inhibitorofbone resorption. We found that minodronic acid inhibited alpha,beta-methylene ATP-induced cation uptake with the potency higher than that of suramin in the P2X(2/3) receptor receptor-expressing cells. Other bisphosphonates did not show such activity. Subcutaneously administered (10-50 mg/kg) minodronic acid significantly inhibited the alpha,beta-methylene ATP-, acetic acid- and formalin-induced nociceptive behaviors in mice. These unique effects of minodronic acid would be beneficial for the treatment of accelerated bone turnover diseases accompanied by bone pain, including bone metastases. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V.
