The hormone 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1alpha,25(OH)2D3] generates biological responses via both genomic and rapid, nongenomic mechanisms. The genomic responses utilize signal transduction pathways linked to a nuclear receptor (VDRnuc) for 1alpha,25(OH)2D3, while the rapid responses are believed to utilize other signal transduction pathways that may be linked to a putative membrane receptor for 1alpha,25(OH)2D3. The natural seco steroid is capable of facile rotation about its 6,7 single carbon bond, which permits generation of a continuum of potential ligand shapes extending from the 6-s-cis (steroid like) to the 6-s-trans (extended). To identify the shape of conformer(s) that can serve as agonists for the genomic and rapid biological responses, we measured multiple known agonist activities of two families of chemically synthesized analogs that were either locked in the 6-s-cis (6C) or 6-s-trans (6T) conformation. We found that 6T locked analogs were inactive or significantly less active than 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 in both rapid responses (transcaltachia in perfused chick intestine, 45Ca2+ influx in ROS 17/2.8 cells) and genomic (osteocalcin induction in MG-63 cells, differentiation of HL-60 cells, growth arrest of MCF-7 cells, promoter transfection in COS-7 cells) assays. In genomic assays, 6C locked analogs bound poorly to the VDRnuc and were significantly less effective than 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 in the same series of assays designed to measure genomic responses. In contrast, the 6C locked analogs were potent agonists of both rapid response pathways and had activities equivalent to the conformationally flexibile 1alpha,25(OH)2D3; this represents the first demonstration that 6-s-cis locked analogs can function as agonists for vitamin D responses. 相似文献

The vitamin D endocrine system has been involved in the impairment of intestinal calcium absorption during aging. Alterations in the nongenomic mechanism of calcitriol (1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3; [1, 25(OH)2D3] have been recently evidenced. In enterocytes isolated from aged rats, 1,25(OH)2D3 stimulation of Ca2+ channels through the cAMP/PKA pathway is blunted. We have now investigated whether in vivo administration of calcitriol to senescent rats reverses the absence of hormonal effects in isolated intestinal cells. In enterocytes from 20-24-month-old rats given 1,25(OH)2D3 for 3 days (30 ng/100 g bw/day), calcitriol (10(-10) M, 3-5 minutes) stimulated Ca2&plus uptake and intracellular cAMP to the same degree and protein quinase A (PKA) activity to a lesser degree than in enterocytes from young animals. Significantly higher basal levels of cAMP and PKA detected in enterocytes from old rats were not affected by prior injection of animals with 1,25(OH)2D3. When the aged rats were injected with 25(OH)D3, similar Ca2+ influx, cAMP, and PKA responses to in vitro stimulation with calcitriol were obtained. 1, 25(OH)2D3-dependent changes in Ca2+ uptake by enterocytes from both young and old rats treated with calcitriol were totally suppressed by the cAMP antagonist Rp-cAMPS, whereas the response to the agonist Sp-cAMPS was markedly depressed in aged animals. These results suggest that intestinal resistance to nongenomic 1,25(OH)2D3 stimulation of duodenal cell Ca2+ uptake develops in rats upon aging and show that in vivo administration of 1,25(OH)2D3 or its precursor to senescent rats restores the ability of the hormone to stimulate duodenal cell calcium influx through the cAMP messenger system. 相似文献

The present study demonstrates 1alpha,25-dehydroxyvitamin D3 (1alpha-25-(OH)2D3) synergism toward transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1-induced activation protein-1 (AP-1) activity in mouse osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells via the nuclear receptor of the vitamin. 1alpha-25-(OH)2D3 synergistically stimulated TGF-beta1-induced expression of the c-jun gene in the cells but not that of the c-fos gene. We actually showed by a gel mobility shift assay 1alpha-25-(OH)2D3 synergism of TGF-beta1-induced AP-1 binding to the 12-(O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate response element (TRE). 1alpha-25-(OH)2D3 markedly stimulated the transient activity of TGF-beta1-induced AP-1 in the cells transfected with a TRE-chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) reporter gene. Also, a synergistic increase in TGF-beta1-induced CAT activity was observed in the cells cotransfected with an expression vector encoding vitamin D3 receptor (VDR) and the reporter gene. However, the synergistic CAT activity was inhibited by pretreatment with VDR antisense oligonucleotides. In addition, in a Northern blot assay, we observed 1alpha-25-(OH)2D3 synergism of TGF-beta1-induced expression of the c-jun gene in the cells transfected with the VDR expression vector and also found that the synergistic action was clearly blocked by VDR antisense oligonucleotide pretreatment. The present study strongly suggests a novel positive regulation by 1alpha-25-(OH)2D3 of TGF-beta1-induced AP-1 activity in osteoblasts via "genomic action." 相似文献

The steroid hormone 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1 alpha,25(OH)2D3] stimulates biological responses via both genomic mechanisms and nongenomic mechanisms (opening of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels). We report here that the two closed B-ring steroid analogs of 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3, 1 alpha,25(OH)2-7-dehydrocholesterol and 1 alpha,25(OH)2-lumisterol3, are able to generate the nongenomic response, transcaltachia, without the ability to compete with the natural metabolite for binding to its nuclear receptor. We propose that the nongenomic membrane associated receptor can accept the ligand in its closed "6-s-cis" conformation whereas the nuclear receptor prefers the extended "6-s-trans" conformer. 相似文献

After intravenous administration of the vitamin D3 analog, 22-oxacalcitriol (OCT), to normal rats plasma metabolites were investigated by HPLC, GC-MS and LC-MS. Five side-chain oxidation metabolites, 24R(OH)OCT, 24S(OH)OCT, (25R)-26(OH)OCT, (25S)-26(OH)OCT and 24oxoOCT, were identified by comparison with the corresponding synthetic compounds. These side-chain oxidation metabolites were similar to those of calcitriol [1alpha,25(OH)2 vitamin D3] described previously. Besides these five metabolites, two unique side-chain cleavage metabolites, 20S(OH)-hexanor-OCT and 17,20S(OH)2-hexanor-OCT, were identified as main metabolites in plasma by GC-MS and LC-MS using a specific chemical reaction. Our studies suggest that OCT is extensively metabolized and circulates in blood as a number of metabolites as well as unchanged OCT. This metabolism includes both unique pathways of C23-O22 cleavage and 17-hydroxylation, in addition to the side-chain oxidation metabolites similar to those of 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3. 相似文献

1,25-(OH)2D3 and 24,25-(OH)2D3 mediate their effects on chondrocytes through the classic vitamin D receptor (VDR) as well as through rapid membrane-mediated mechanisms which result in both nongenomic and genomic effects. In intact cells, it is difficult to distinguish between genomic responses via the VDR and genomic and nongenomic responses via membrane-mediated pathways. In this study, we used two hybrid analogues of 1,25-(OH)2D3 which have been modified on the A-ring and C,D-ring side chain (1 alpha-(hydroxymethyl)-3 beta-hydroxy-20-epi-22-oxa-26,27-dihomo vitamin D3 (analogue MCW-YA = 3a) and 1 beta-(hydroxymethyl)-3 alpha-hydroxy-20-epi-22-oxa-26,27-dihomo vitamin D3 (analogue MCW-YB = 3b) to examine the role of the VDR in response of rat costochondral resting zone (RC) and growth zone (GC) chondrocytes to 1,25-(OH)2D3 and 24,25-(OH)2D3. These hybrid analogues are only 0.1% as effective in binding to the VDR from calf thymus as 1,25-(OH)2D3. Chondrocyte proliferation ([3H]-thymidine incorporation), proteoglycan production ([35S]-sulfate incorporation), and activity of protein kinase C (PKC) were measured after treatment with 1,25-(OH)2D3, 24,25-(OH)2D3, or the analogues. Both analogues inhibited proliferation of both cell types, as did 1,25-(OH)2D3 and 24,25-(OH)2D3. Analogue 3a had no effect on proteoglycan production by GCs but increased that by RCs. Analogue 3b increased proteoglycan production in both GC and RC cultures. Both analogues stimulated PKC in GC cells; however, neither 3a nor 3b had an effect on PKC activity in RC cells. 1,25-(OH)2D3 and 3a decreased PKC in matrix vesicles from GC cultures, whereas plasma membrane PKC activity was increased, with 1,25-(OH)2D3 having a greater effect. 24,25-(OH)2D3 caused a significant decrease in PKC activity in matrix vesicles from RC cultures; 24,25-(OH)2D3, 3a, and 3b increased PKC activity in the plasma membrane fraction, however. Thus, with little or no binding to calf thymus VDR, 3a and 3b can affect cell proliferation, proteoglycan production, and PKC activity. The direct membrane effect is analogue-specific and cell maturation-dependent. By studying analogues with greatly reduced affinity for the VDR, we have provided further evidence for the existence of a membrane receptor(s) involved in mediating nongenomic effects of vitamin D metabolites. 相似文献

1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) receptors (VDR) are expressed in multiple tissues within the body. VDR levels are increased by 1,25(OH)2D3 in intestine and kidney and in numerous cell models. The ability of 1,25(OH)2D3 to affect VDR levels in other target tissues in vivo was studied by assessing VDR levels by the 3H-1,25(OH)2D3 binding assay under varied physiological conditions in the rat. When compared with vitamin D-deficient (-D) controls, rats raised on a normal vitamin D-sufficient (+D) diet showed elevated VDR levels in kidney (391 +/- 53 vs. 913 +/- 76 fmol/g of tissue;p < 0.05), but not in testis, heart, or lung. Up-regulation of the VDR also occurred in kidney of +D rats 1 day after a single 100-ng dose of 1,25(OH)2D3 (454 +/- 43 vs. 746 +/- 113 fmol/mg of DNA; p < 0.05), but no changes were seen in intestine, testis, or lung. Because 1,25(OH)2D3-induced hypercalcemia may independently affect VDR regulation, 1,25(OH)2D3 was infused into -D rats, and normocalcemia was maintained by reduced dietary calcium intake. In this model, the renal VDR was again up-regulated (446 +/- 115 vs. 778 +/- 58 fmol/mg of DNA; p < 0.05), but VDR levels in testis and lung were unaffected. Scatchard analysis and tests of 1,25(OH)2D3 dose (1-100 ng/day for 7 days) and temporal (100 ng/day for 1-7 days) responsiveness further supported the tissue-specific nature of the homologous VDR regulation. Assay of VDR levels by L-1-tosylamido-2-phenylethyl chloromethyl ketone-3H-1,25(OH)2D3 exchange assay ruled out differences in endogenous 1,25(OH)2D3 occupancy as the basis for the observed differences in VDR regulation. Finally, coidentity of the VDR-like sites in kidney versus testis was confirmed by competitive binding analysis comparing their relative affinities for 25(OH)D3 versus 1,25(OH)2D3 (30.5 +/- 6.4 vs. 35.6 +/- 3.6 in kidney and testis, respectively) and by immunoblot analysis using a highly specific monoclonal anti-rat VDR antibody. Thus, under a wide variety of experimental conditions, homologous up-regulation of the VDR occurs in the rat kidney in vivo, but not in several other target tissues which do not regulate plasma calcium homeostasis. Moreover, this differential VDR regulation did not result from secondary changes in plasma calcium, from differential 1,25(OH)2D3 responsiveness in the various tissues, nor from differences in endogenous 1,25(OH)2D3 occupancy of the VDR. These studies thus establish that, in contrast to observations in vitro, the widely described phenomenon of homologous VDR up-regulation in kidney and intestine is not a universal property of 1,25(OH)2D3 target tissues in vivo in the rat. 相似文献

Using 1 alpha,2 alpha-oxido-cholesta-5,7-diene-3 beta,25-diol (2) as a starting material, the provitamins of calcitriol with an additional 2 beta-chloro-, 2 beta-fluoro-, and 2 beta-methoxy-substituent (3,4,5) are obtained by transdiaxial opening of the oxirane ring with nucleophiles. An efficient irradiation process is described and used for the synthesis of the 2 beta-substituted calcitriols NS2 (2 beta-Cl), NS6 (2 beta-F), and NS7 (2 beta-OCH3). The affinity of these three vitamin D3 derivatives to the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and was determined. These three A-ring derivatives of 1,25(OH)2D3 were further tested for their proliferation-inhibitory and anti-adipogenic activity and gene regulatoric activity in the vitamin D3-sensitive, murine, mesenchymal cell line C3H10T1/2. The VDR-affinity of the 2 beta-chloro derivative, NS2 (2 beta-Cl), was identical to 1,25(OH)2D3 and its vitamin D binding protein (DBP)-affinity was in the range of 1,25(OH)2D3. NS2 inhibited the proliferation of C3H10T1/2(BMP-4)-cells in the presence of fetal calf serum (FCS) 9 times, and, in the absence of FCS, 111 times lower, as compared with 1,25(OH)2D3. The ID50 dose of adipogenesis-inhibition of NS2 was 13 times higher than the ID50 dose of 1,25(OH)2D3. NS6 (2 beta-F) displayed a slightly higher affinity than 1,25(OH)2D3 to the VDR and DBP-affinity. The proliferation-inhibitory activity in the presence of FCS was 90 times higher, as compared with 1,25(OH)2D3. In the FCS-free proliferation assay NS6 displayed an inhibitory activity in the range of 1,25(OH)2D3. NS6 showed an 5 times higher potency to inhibit (pre)adipocyte-differentiation in C3H10T1/2(BMP-4)-cells than 1,25(OH)2D3. NS7 (2 beta-OCH3) showed the lowest VDR-affinity and the highest DBP-affinity of the tested substances, as compared with 1,25(OH)2D3 (11 times lower and 35 times higher respectively). Its proliferation-inhibitory activity in the FCS-free medium was 9 times and in the FCS-containing assay 67 times lower in comparison with 1,25(OH)2D3. A 1250 times higher NS7-dose was needed to reach the anti-adipogenic potency of 1,25(OH)2D3. All tested substances displayed a similar ability to activate a vitamin D responsive element-regulated reporter gene compared to 1,25(OH)2D3 (NS2 and NS6: 1.3 times higher activity; NS7: 1,4 times lower activity). 相似文献

1 alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3[1 alpha,25(OH)2D3], an active form of vitamin D, has roles in many biological phenomena such as calcium homeostasis and bone formation, which are thought to be mediated by the 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 receptor (VDR), a member of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily. However, the molecular basis for the actions of 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 in bone formation, its role during development and VDR genetic polymorphisms for predicting bone mineral density are uncertain. To investigate the functional role of VDR, we generated mice deficient in VDR by gene targeting. We report here that in VDR null mutant mice, no defects in development and growth were observed before weaning, irrespective of reduced expression of vitamin D target genes. After weaning, however, mutants failed to thrive, with appearance of alopoecia, hypocalcaemia and infertility, and bone formation was severely impaired as a typical feature of vitamin D-dependent rickets type II (refs 8, 9). Unlike humans with this disease, most of the null mutant mice died within 15 weeks after birth, and uterine hypoplasia with impaired folliculogenesis was found in female reproductive organs. These defects, such as alopoecia and uterine hypoplasia, were not observed in vitamin D-deficient animals. The findings establish a critical role for VDR in growth, bone formation and female reproduction in the post-weaning stage. 相似文献

Vitamin D3 and its hydroxylated metabolites are normally in thermal equilibrium with their previtamin D isomers. To evaluate the biologic activity of 1 alpha, 25-dihydroxyprevitamin D3, we synthesized 19-nor analogs of 1 alpha, 25-dihydroxy(pre)vitamin D3 because the absence of a C19 methylene group prevents the isomerization of these analogs. The affinity of 1 alpha, 25-(OH)2D3-19-nor-D3 for the intestinal vitamin D receptor and plasma vitamin D binding protein was mildly decreased [30 and 20% of the affinity of 1 alpha, 25-(OH)2D3, respectively], but the affinity of 1 alpha, 25-(OH)2-19-nor-previtamin D3 was only 1 and 6% of that of 1 alpha, 25-(OH)2D3 for the receptor and DBP, respectively. The in vitro effects on human promyeloid leukemia (HL-60 cell) differentiation and osteocalcin secretion by human osteosarcoma (MG-63) cells by 1 alpha, 25-(OH)2-19-nor-D3 were nearly identical to those of 1 alpha-25-(OH)2D3, whereas 19-nor-previtamin D3 showed poor activity (2%). The in vivo calcemic effects of both analogs, studied in vitamin D-deficient chicks treated for 10 consecutive days with the analogs, showed no activity of the previtamin D3 analog and reduced calcemic effects (< or = 10%) of 1 alpha, 25-(OH)2-19-nor-D3. We conclude that the previtamin D form of 1 alpha, 25-(OH)2D3 has lost most of its biologic activity in vitro and in vivo. 相似文献

Previous biological studies have implicated two vitamin D metabolites, 1 alpha,25(OH)2-vitamin D3[1 alpha,25(OH)2-D3] and 24R,25(OH)2-vitamin D3 [24R,25(OH)2D3] in the process of skeletal fracture-healing. While a nuclear receptor for 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 is known to be present in osteoblast and absent in osteoclast cell lines, no systematic study has been carried out on the callus tissue which is formed during fracture-healing. The present report shows that a binding protein/receptor for 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 resides both in a postnuclear membrane fraction and in a high speed cytosol fraction of the callus tissue obtained 10 days after imposition of a tibial fracture. The dissociation constant, KD, for 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 was 0.83 +/- 0.34 M and 0.66 +/- 0.38 nM respectively, for the membrane and cytosol fractions. Results from a panel of steroid competition assays indicate that both receptor/binding proteins greatly prefer 1 alpha-hydroxylated ligands as compared to 1 alpha-deoxy or 24-hydroxylated ligands. The presence of 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 receptors in the fracture-healing callus is consistent with the known biological effects of the metabolite on the fracture-healing process. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effects of lead and cadmium on the metabolic pathway of vitamin D3. METHODS: Blood and urinary cadmium and urinary total proteins were measured in 59 smelter workers occupationally exposed to lead and cadmium. In 19 of these workers, the plasma vitamin D3 metabolites, (25-hydroxycholecalciferol (25 OHD3), 24R, 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol (24R,25(OH)2D3) and 1 alpha,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol (1 alpha, 25(OH)2D3)) were measured together with blood lead. Vitamin D3 metabolites were measured by radioimmunoassay, (RIA), lead and cadmium by atomic absorption spectrophotometry, and total proteins with a test kit. RESULTS: Ranges for plasma 25(OH)D3, 24R,25(OH)2D3 and 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 were 1.0-51.9 ng/ml, 0.6-5.8 ng/ml, and 0.1-75.7 pg/ml, respectively. Ranges for blood lead were 1-3.7 mumol/l, (21-76 micrograms/dl), blood cadmium 6-145 nmol/l, and urinary cadmium 3-161 nmol/l. Total proteins in random urine samples were 2.1-32.6 mg/dl. Concentrations of lead and cadmium in blood showed no correlation (correlation coefficient -0.265) but there was a highly significant correlation between blood and urinary cadmium. Concentrations for 24R,25(OH)2D3 were depressed below the normal range as blood and urinary cadmium increased, irrespective of lead concentrations. High cadmium concentrations were associated with decreased plasma 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 when lead concentrations were < 1.9 mumol/l and with above normal plasma 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 when lead concentrations were > 1.9 mumol/l, Kruskal-Wallis analysis of variance (K-W ANOVA) chi 2 = 10.3, p = 0.006. Plasma 25(OH)D3 was negatively correlated with both urinary total proteins and urinary cadmium, but showed no correlation with plasma 24R,25(OH)2D3, 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3, blood lead, or blood cadmium. CONCLUSION: Continuous long term exposure to cadmium may result in a state of equilibrium between blood and urinary cadmium. Cadmium concentrations in blood could be predicted from the cadmium concentration of the urine, (regression coefficient +0.35 SE 0.077). Exposure to cadmium alone decreased the concentrations of 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 and 24R,25(OH)2D3, whereas exposure to both cadmium and lead increased the concentrations of 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3. It has been suggested that cadmium and lead interact with renal mitochondrial hydroxylases of the vitamin D3 endocrine complex. Perturbation of the vitamin D metabolic pathway by cadmium may result in health effect, such as osteoporosis or osteomalacia, risks which are possibly increased in the presence of lead. 相似文献
