Abstract
Structure-function studies on the natural product wortmannin have iden tified a 17 beta-hydroxy derivative as a potent inhibitor of osteoclas t function in both cell and animal models. Mechanistic studies indicat e osteoclast differentiation is dramatically affected by this class of compounds. Interestingly, comparable potency trends for resorption an d phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase inhibition were also observed.
