Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine selective inhibition of cathepsin K has a therapeutic potential for diseases associated with bone loss and osseous inflammation, such as osteoarthritis, periodontitis, and osteoporosis. Cathepsin K inhibition may have anabolic effects on bone and cartilage regeneration that may be explained as a feedback response to cathepsin K depletion. The use of cathepsin K inhibition to reduce inflammation and associated bone resorption in equine osseous disorders may offer advantages to other therapeutics Equus caballus
