Description

Dichloromethylenebisphosphonic acid (DCP) is a drug that is used in the treatment of cancer. It is a chemoattractant protein, which binds to the toll-like receptor and inhibits the production of inflammatory cytokines. This agent has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties and may be useful for the treatment of inflammation in diseases such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or psoriasis. The mechanism of action of DCP involves inhibiting enzymes that are responsible for bone resorption, such as cathepsin K and matrix metalloproteinases. DCP also inhibits the proliferation of tumor cells.
