2MD
2MD is an orally active vitamin D analog. 2MD stimulates periosteal bone formation and decreases trabecular bone resorption. Thus 2MD restores trabecular and cortical bone mass and strength. 2MD also regulates intraocular pressure (IOP)-relative genes and reduces IOP in non-human primates.

2MD (0.5-10 ng/kg, 0,1 mL/day; p.o.; once daily for 16 weeks) not only restores both trabecular and cortical bone mass, but also increases bone mass and strength in osteopenic ovariectomized (OVX) rats by stimulating bone formation on the periosteal surface and decreasing bone resorption on the trabecular surface in rats[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
