Zoledronate also known as zoledronic acid is a third-generation bisphosphonate used to treat malignancy with hypercalcemia, myeloma and bone metastasis from tumors. Zoledronate is taken up into the bone and binds to hydroxyapatite, during bone resorption zoledronate is released and taken up into the osteoclast by endocytosis. Within the cytosol of the osteoclast, it inhibits geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate synthase and farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase. Without these enzymes components needed for the prenylation of proteins are stopped, and this leads to apoptosis of the osteoclast.
