Ipriflavone, an isoflavone derivative, is a new drug used in an attempt to decrease bone loss in osteoporosis. Experimental studies have shown that this compound acts by inhibiting osteoclastic bone resorption both in vivo and in vitro, but the mechanism of its inhibitory action on resorbing cells remains unclear. Using bone resorption assays, video image analysis together with measurements of intracellular free calcium in isolated osteoclasts, we show here that IP directly inhibits osteoclastic activity by the modulation of intracellular free calcium.

Abstract

Ipriflavone, an isoflavone derivative, is a new drug used in an attempt to decrease bone loss in osteoporosis. Experimental studies have shown that this compound acts by inhibiting osteoclastic bone resorption both in vivo and in vitro, but the mechanism of its inhibitory action on resorbing cells remains unclear. Using bone resorption assays, video image analysis together with measurements of intracellular free calcium in isolated osteoclasts, we show here that IP directly inhibits osteoclastic activity by the modulation of intracellular free calcium.
