pubmed:abstractText |
The acute phase response is the major adverse effect of intravenously administered N-BPs. In this study we show that N-BPs cause gamma,delta-T-cell activation and proliferation in vitro by an indirect mechanism through inhibition of FPP synthase, an effect that can be overcome by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase with a statin. These studies clarify the probable initial cause of the acute phase response to N-BP drugs and suggest a possible way of preventing this phenomenon.
