Pamidronate (disodium pentahydrate) (Standard) is the analytical standard of Pamidronate (disodium pentahydrate). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Pamidronate disodium pentahydrate, the second-generation nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate, is an inhibitor of bone loss. Pamidronate disodium pentahydrate significantly inhibits subchondral bone loss in early osteoarthritis by upregulating the expression of osteoprotegerin in cartilage and subchondral bone, and inhibiting the expression of RANKL and MMP-9 in both tissues, as well as TLR-4 in cartilage, thereby alleviating cartilage degeneration. Additionally, Pamidronate disodium pentahydrate can inhibit the signaling of Wnt and beta-catenin, and is applicable for research on osteoporosis and osteosarcoma[1][2][3][4].
