Methyl gerfelin inhibits osteoclast differentiation by binding 3 major cellular proteins: glyoxalase 1 (GLO1), sterol binding protein 2 (SCP2), and small glutamine-rich tetratricopeptide repeat containing protein A (SGTA). Methyl gerfelin is a potent GLO1 inhibitor related to the flavonoid class[1][2].
