Application

Ibandronate sodium salt has been used to study its effect on the proliferation and ultrastructure of Leishmania and Giardia by the generation of concentration curves. It has also been used to elucidate the route by which nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates (N-BPs) enter the cytosol and inhibit their molecular target.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ibandronate is a nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate (N-BP). It potentially inhibits mevalonate pathway in osteoclasts. Thus, ibandronate is effectively used to treat osteoporosis and other bone-related diseases.
Ibandronate sodium inhibits farnesyl diphosphate synthase (IC50 = 20 nM). Ibandronate sodium is also a bone resorption inhibitor. It has been investigated for in vitro anti-tumor effects, such as apoptosis induction, inhibitor of cell growth, inhibition of invasive behavior, and inhibition of angiogenesis and for its in vivo role in various cancers including breast and prostate cancers.

The enzyme farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FPPS) is positioned in the intersection of different sterol biosynthesis pathways such as those producing isoprenoids, dolichols and ergosterol. FPPS is ubiquitous in eukaryotes and is inhibited by nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates (N-BP). N-BP activity and the

Statins are cholesterol-lowering drugs that inhibit 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase, the rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of cholesterol via the mevalonate pathway. This pathway also produces coenzyme Q (a component of the respiratory chain), dolichols (important for protein glycosylation), and isoprenoids
