Abstract
  • The anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties of different bisphosphonates have been demonstrated in both animal and human studies. Ibandronate is a third-generation bisphosphonate effective in managing different types of bone pain. In this study we investigated its effects in a standard pre-clinical model of inflammatory pain. We evaluated the effects of a single injection of different doses (0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 mg/kg i.p.) of ibandronate on inflammatory oedema and cutaneous hyperalgesia produced by the intraplantar injection of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) in the rat hind-paw. In addition, we measured the effects of this drug (1.0 mg/kg i.p.) on hind-paw levels of different pro-inflammatory mediators (PGE-2, SP, TNF-alpha, and IL-1beta). We also measured the levels of SP protein and of its mRNA in the ipsilateral dorsal root ganglia (DRG). Ibandronate proved able to reduce the inflammatory oedema, the hyperalgesia to mechanical stimulation, and the levels of SP in the inflamed tissue as measured 3 and 7 days following CFA-injection. This drug significantly reduced the levels of TNF-alpha and IL-1beta only on day 7. On the other hand, the levels of PGE-2 in the inflamed hind-paw were unaffected by the administration of this bisphosphonate. Finally, ibandronate blocked the overexpression of SP mRNA in DRG induced by CFA-injection in the hind-paw. These data help to complete the pharmacodynamic profile of ibandronate, while also suggesting an involvement of several inflammatory mediators, with special reference to substance P, in the analgesic action of this bisphosphonate.
