title: Effects of potassium peroxydiphosphate on bone resorption.
abstract: Potassium peroxydiphosphate (KPDP) is a slowly hydrolyzed pyrophosphate analog that can release hydrogen peroxide during hydrolysis. We tested its effects on the resorption of cultured fetal rat long bones as measured by the release of previously incorporated 45Ca, both by direct addition of KPDP to the medium and after preincubation of KPDP with large-molecular-weight resorbing factors followed by dialysis to reduce the KPDP concentration. With direct addition, KPDP at a concentration of 1 mM could inhibit the resortive response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), parathyroid hormone (PTH), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and mouse recombinant interleukin-1 (mrIL-1). The response to LPS was partially inhibited at 0.3 mM KPDP. Control resorption in the absence of stimulators was also inhibited. Potassium pyrophosphate at 1 mM was less effective as an inhibitor of bone resorption. The inhibitory effects of KPDP did not appear to be due entirely to nonspecific toxicity since partial recovery occurred after it was removed. There was no significant decrease in [3H]thymidine or [3H]proline incorporation into bones incubated with KPDP at 1 mM for 5 days, but [3H]proline incorporation was decreased at 24 h, suggesting that KPDP may have a general inhibitory effect on bone cells. When media with and without stimulators of resorption were incubated overnight at 4 degrees C with KPDP at 5.8 mM and then dialyzed to bring the concentration to below 0.3 mM, the bone-resorbing activity of PTH, LPS, and mrIL-1 was completely lost. This may have been due to the slow release of hydrogen peroxide; however, preincubation with equimolar concentrations of H2O3 caused only partial inactivation of PTH and LPS.
