A variability in response of osteoclasts to zoledronic acid is mediated by smoking-associated modification in the DNA methylome

Abstract Background Clinical trials have shown zoledronic acid as a potent bisphosphonate in preventing bone loss, but with varying potency between patients. Human osteoclasts ex vivo reportedly displayed a variable sensitivity to zoledronic acid > 200-fold, determined by the half-maximal inhibit...
