Y. Ono et al., Syntheses and preventive effects of analogues related to 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy-2 beta-(3-hydroxypropoxy)vitamin D-3 (ED-71) on bone mineral loss in ovariectomized rats, BIO MED CH, 6(12), 1998, pp. 2517-2523
Analogues related to 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy-2 beta-(3-hydroxypropoxy)vitamin
D-3 (ED-71) (2), 26,27-dimethyl ED-71 (3) and 26,27-diethyl ED-71 (4), were
synthesized from lithocholic acid (5). In the study of the preventive effe
cts of these analogues and ED-71 (2) on bone mineral loss in ovariectomized
rats, 26,27-dimethyl ED-71 (3) showed the most potent activity. (C) 1998 E
