. 2001 Aug;
72(8):1069-77.
PMID: 11525440
Background: Chemically modified non-antimicrobial tetracyclines (CMTs) have been shown to inhibit pathologically elevated collagenase (and other matrix metalloproteinase, MMP) activity and bone resorption in vivo and in vitro. Methods: In...

PMID: 11172678
CMTs are analogs of tetracyclines, which are chemically modified to eliminate their antimicrobial efficacy but which retain their inhibitory activity against matrix metalloproteinases. These compounds have been found to inhibit...

PMID: 9972123
The anti-resorptive properties of tetracyclines (TCs) and their non-antimicrobial, chemically modified analogues (CMTs) have enormous therapeutic potential in medicine and dentistry. Osseous destructive diseases associated with excessive mammalian collagenase (matrix...

PMID: 9598901
Objective: We studied the relative ability of 6 different chemically modified non-antimicrobial analogs of tetracycline (CMT) to inhibit human and chicken matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) in vitro. The ability of tetracycline...

PMID: 8853426
Certain eukaryotic cells can sense changes in their extracellular Ca2+ concentration through molecular structures termed Ca(2+)-sensing receptors (CaRs). We have shown recently that in the bone-resorbing osteoclast, a unique cell...

PMID: 7657829
Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) reside in microsomal membranes where they gate Ca2+ release in response to changes in the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration. In the osteoclast, a divalent cation sensor, the Ca2+...

PMID: 7648488
This study was designed to evaluate the effects of specific and potent cathepsin inhibitors on osteoclastic resorptive functions in vitro by means of a novel ultrastructural assay system. Mouse bone...
