Mechanism of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3)-dependent repression of interleukin-12B.
Interleukin 12 (IL-12) is a heterodimeric, pro-inflammatory cytokine that plays a central role in activation and differentiation of CD4(+) T cells into interferon-γ secreting T-helper type 1 cells. IL-12B, a gene encoding the larger subunit of active IL-12, has been reported to be down-regulated by the nuclear hormone 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1α,25(OH)(2)D(3)), but the mechanism of the regu...
متن کاملRU486 Reversal of Cortisol Repression of 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 Induction of the Human Osteocalcin Promoter
In conditions of corticosteroid excess, such as Cushing’s syndrome, a reduction in serum osteocalcin is observed and bone loss occurs. The human osteocalcin gene is induced by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 derivatives and repressed by glucocorticoids. In this paper we show that cortisol, a natural glucocorticoid, represses both basal and vitamin D induced activity of the human osteocalcin promoter. ...
متن کاملPhosphorylation of the 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 receptor. A primary event in 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 action.
1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 is believed to mediate the regulation of calcium metabolism by a steroid hormone receptor mechanism. We now demonstrate that phosphorylation of the 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 receptor occurs rapidly in embryonic chick duodenal organ culture in response to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. Phosphorylation of the receptor is strongly induced within 1 h by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 a...
متن کاملRepression of Smoothened by Patched-Dependent (Pro-)Vitamin D3 Secretion
The developmentally important hedgehog (Hh) pathway is activated by binding of Hh to patched (Ptch1), releasing smoothened (Smo) and the downstream transcription factor glioma associated (Gli) from inhibition. The mechanism behind Ptch1-dependent Smo inhibition remains unresolved. We now show that by mixing Ptch1-transfected and Ptch1 small interfering RNA-transfected cells with Gli reporter ce...
متن کاملDecreased 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 Receptor
The resistance of parathyroid cells to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) in uremic hyperparathyroidism is thought to be caused, in part, by a 1,25(OH)2D3 receptor (VDR) deficiency in the parathyroids. However, results of biochemical studies addressing VDR numbers in the parathyroids are controversial. Several studies have found VDR content to be decreased in the parathyroids of uremic pati...
