| Authors: | H Fleisch R G Russell M D Francis |
| Abstract: | Two diphosphonates containing the P-C-P bond, Cl(2)C(PO(3)HNa)(2), and H(2)C(PO(3)HNa)(2) retard the rate of dissolution of apatite crystals in vitro. They inhibit bone resorption induced by parathyroid extract in mouse calvaria in tissue culture and in thyroparathyroidectomized rats in vivo. |
