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 کاملIn vitro cellular muscle calcium metabolism. Characterization of effects of 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 and 25-hydroxy-vitamin D3.
Cultures of vitamin D-deficient chick soleus muscle and 12 day-old chick embryo myoblasts were used to characterize the effects of 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 and 25-hydroxy-vitamin D3 on muscle cell Ca metabolism. Physiological amounts of both sterols increased the rate and extent of 45Ca uptake by cultures. However, 1,25(OH)2D3 was significantly more effective than 25 OHD3. The greater potency ...
متن کاملتاثیر مقدار ویتامین D3 و اینترفرون گاما بر تکثیر تاکی زوییت های توکسو پلاسما گوندیی و تولید نیتریک اکساید در ماکروفاژهای صفاقی موش Balb/C
Background and purpose : Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate interacelullar parasite that infect a wide variety of nucleated cells in its intermediate hosts. Tachyzoites of Toxoplasma gondii in able to multiply in mouse macrophages. Inducing synthesis of nitric oxide (NO) by macrophages is an important mechanism of the host defense against interacelullar infection in mice. The 1.25 dihydroxy vit...
متن کاملStimulation of calmodulin binding to skeletal muscle membrane proteins by 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3.
Previous work has shown that 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 rapidly increases calmodulin levels of skeletal muscle membranes without altering the muscle cell calmodulin content. Therefore, the effects of the sterol on the binding of calmodulin to specific muscle membrane proteins were investigated. Soleus muscles from vitamin D-deficient chicks were treated in vitro for short intervals (5-15 min) wi...
متن کاملPeritonitis-related deaths in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients.
A total of 636 episodes of peritonitis occurred in 440 patients who entered our continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) program from September 1977 to February 1988. Sixteen patients (8 male and 8 female, aged 37-77 years) died during an episode of peritonitis (fatality rate 2.5%). They had been on CAPD for 3 to 105 (average 39) months. Six of them were diabetics. The peritonitis rate ...
