In Vitro

Minodronic acid (5-100 μM; 72 h) inhibits the proliferation of human bladder cancer cell lines 253J, 5637, RT4, RT112, TCCSUP, KU-7 and UM-UC-3 in a dose-dependent manner[1].
Minodronic acid (30 μM; 48 h) induces apoptosis in human bladder cancer cells[1].
Minodronic acid (0.25-2.0 × IC50; 72 h) exhibits synergistic or additive antiproliferative effects when combined with Cisplatin (HY-17394) or Paclitaxel (HY-B0015) in human bladder cancer cell lines KU-7, RT112 and UM-UC-3[1].
Minodronic acid (0.1-1 μM; 3 days) potently inhibits osteoclast-mediated bone resorption in rabbits and induces dose-dependent morphological changes; at 1 μM, it almost completely inhibits bone resorption and causes osteoclast detachment, while at 0.1 μM, it only exerts partial inhibitory effects accompanied by the disappearance of the ruffled border[2].

Cell Proliferation Assay[1]

Cell Line: 253J, 5637, RT4, RT112, TCCSUP, KU-7, UM-UC-3 human bladder cancer cells
Concentration: 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 μM
Incubation Time: 72 h
Result: Inhibited cell growth in a dose-dependent manner.
Achieved IC50 values of 12.2 μM (253J), 7.1 μM (5637), 12.2 μM (RT4), 15.4 μM (RT112), 21.8 μM (TCCSUP), 24.8 μM (KU-7), and 20.8 μM (UM-UC-3).
In Vivo

Minodronic acid (80 μg/kg; subcutaneous injection; once weekly; for 3 consecutive weeks) significantly inhibits the growth of bladder cancer bone metastases in BALB/c nu/nu mice without causing adverse effects[1].
Minodronic acid (30-100 μM; transurethral administration; 5 days) inhibits the growth of orthotopic bladder cancer in SCID mice [1].
Minodronic acid (0.05-5 mg/kg; subcutaneous injection; single administration) accumulates in the calcified and ossified regions of rat bones, concentrates in osteoclast-containing bone tissue sites, and exhibits dose-dependent bone tissue localization characteristics[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: BALB/c nu/nu (female, 6-8 weeks old, intracardiac injection of 1×106 UM-UC-3^LUC cells to induce bone metastases)[1]
Dosage: 80 μg/kg
Administration: s.c.; once weekly; 3 weeks
Result: Significantly reduced growth of bone metastatic lesions compared to untreated mice.
Did not significantly inhibit visceral metastases.
Showed no significant differences in body weight or serum components (AST, ALT, LDH, TP, BUN, Cre, Ca) compared to untreated mice.
Animal Model: SCID (female, 6-8 weeks old, orthotopic implantation of 2×106 UM-UC-3^LUC cells into bladder)[1]
Dosage: 30 μM; 100 μM
Administration: transurethral; daily for 5 consecutive days (days 5-9)
Result: Significantly suppressed orthotopic bladder tumor growth, no significant systemic toxicity was observed, and occasional deaths were attributed to mechanical renal injury rather than drug-related toxicity.
Animal Model: F334/DuCrj rats (female, 4 days postpartum, 5-7 g)[2]
Dosage: 0.05 mg/kg (0.311 MBq/kg); 0.5 mg/kg (3.11 MBq/kg); 5 mg/kg (31.1 MBq/kg)
Administration: s.c.; single dose
Result: Localized approximately 2% of total administered radioactivity to right humeri at 24 hours post-administration, with radioactivity increasing linearly with dose.
Showed radioactive silver grains distributed in the calcified zone, ossification zone, and spongiosa of femurs, but absent in the hypertrophic cartilage zone.
Detected condensed silver grains in spongiosa under and surrounding osteoclasts, with low levels of intracellular silver grains present in osteoclasts.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
