Pharmacodynamics

Not Available

Mechanism of action

Methopterin has been shown to inhibit the proliferation, activation, and bone resorption action of osteoclasts, and induce the apoptosis of osteoclasts, likely contributing to the ability of methopterin to inhibit inflammatory bone destruction.1
