alendronate and Giant Cell Tumor of Bone

alendronate has been researched along with Giant Cell Tumor of Bone in 2 studies

alendronic acid : A 1,1-bis(phosphonic acid) that is methanebis(phosphonic acid) in which the two methylene hydrogens are replaced by hydroxy and 3-aminopropyl groups.

Giant Cell Tumor of Bone: A bone tumor composed of cellular spindle-cell stroma containing scattered multinucleated giant cells resembling osteoclasts. The tumors range from benign to frankly malignant lesions. The tumor occurs most frequently in an end of a long tubular bone in young adults. (From Dorland, 27th ed; Stedman, 25th ed)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Alendronate promotes apoptosis of the OCLs and it is related with the expression of the Fas gene."1.31Apoptosis of osteoclast-like cells induced by alendronate is related to Fas gene expression. ( Wang, XM; Yang, ZP; Yu, SF, 2000)
