Inhibitors of HMG-CoA reductase enzymes, which are statins, are well known and much prescribed drugs for lowering of cholesterol and used for dyslipidemia. But, they have also been shown across various studies to stimulate bone formation. In bone cells, these inhibitors have been known to increase the gene expression of bone morphogenetic protein-2, thereby helping in osteoblastic differentiation, with some effects also on osteoclastic inhibition. The findings that statins can increase bone formation and thereby mass of bone, can be helpful in preventing bone fractures and improving osteoporosis, which is a condition of marked bone loss. Hence, it is reviewed herein that HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors can be a great way, probably a futuristic drug for osteoporotic treatment and prevention.
