Effect of 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 in experimental sepsis
BACKGROUND In addition to the regulation of calcium homeostasis, vitamin D affects the cellular immune system, targets the TNF-alpha pathway and increases vasoconstrictor response to angiotensin II. We therefore examined the effect of 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D(3) on coagulation and organ failure in experimental sepsis in the rat. METHODS Three series of placebo-controlled studies were conducte...
متن کاملA rapidly acting metabolite of vitamin D3.
A vitamin D(3) metabolite in intestine more polar than 25-hydroxy-vitamin D(3)(25-OH D(3)) has been detected by countercurrent distribution. The intestinal metabolite is found also after administration of labeled hydroxy D(3), indicating that it arises from vitamin D(3) via the intermediate 25-hydroxy derivative. The more polar metabolite is localized in the nuclear-chromatin fraction and appea...
متن کامل1α,25(OH)2-3-Epi-Vitamin D3, a Natural Physiological Metabolite of Vitamin D3: Its Synthesis, Biological Activity and Crystal Structure with Its Receptor
BACKGROUND The 1α,25-dihydroxy-3-epi-vitamin-D3 (1α,25(OH)2-3-epi-D3), a natural metabolite of the seco-steroid vitamin D3, exerts its biological activity through binding to its cognate vitamin D nuclear receptor (VDR), a ligand dependent transcription regulator. In vivo action of 1α,25(OH)2-3-epi-D3 is tissue-specific and exhibits lowest calcemic effect compared to that induced by 1α,25(OH)2D3...
متن کاملMetabolism and pharmacokinetics of 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in the vitamin D3-replete rat.
The time course of in vivo metabolism of 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in rats has been examined. Several tissues were surveyed in an effort to discover new metabolites of 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and to estimate the concentrations of previously identified metabolites. Rapidly growing male rats were dosed with 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 orally until plasma concentrations of 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D...
متن کاملRegulation of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 receptor gene expression by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in the parathyroid in vivo.
1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3 dramatically decreases parathyroid hormone (PTH) gene transcription. We have now studied the effect of 1,25(OH)2D3 on the 1,25(OH)2D receptor (VDR) in the parathyroid in vivo. Rats were injected with 1,25(OH)2D3 and the parathyroid-thyroid tissue analyzed for PTHmRNA and VDRmRNA. 1,25(OH)2D3 (50 and 100 pmol ip) decreased PTHmRNA at 6 h with a maximum at 48...
