چکیده
BACKGROUND Klotho, a transmembrane protein, protease and hormone mainly expressed in kidney, is required for the suppression of 1,25(OH)2D3-generating 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 1-alpha-hydroxylase (Cyp27b1) by FGF23. Conversely, 1,25(OH)2D3 stimulates, by activating the vitamin D3 receptor (Vdr), the expression of klotho, thus establishing a negative feedback loop. Klotho protects against renal and vascular injury. Klotho deficiency accelerates aging and early death, effects at least partially due to excessive formation of 1,25(OH)2D3 and subsequent hyperphosphatemia. Klotho expression is inhibited by aldosterone. The present study explored the interaction of aldosterone and DOCA as well as the moderately selective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist spironolactone on klotho expression. METHODS mRNA levels were determined utilizing quantitative RT-PCR in human embryonic kidney cells (HEK293) or in renal tissues from mice without or with prior mineralocorticoid (aldosterone or DOCA) and/or spironolactone treatment. In HEK293 cells, protein levels were determined by western blotting. The experiments in HEK293 cells were performed without or with silencing of CYP27B1, of vitamin D3 receptor (VDR) or of mineralocorticoid receptor (NR3C2). RESULTS In HEK293 cells aldosterone and in mice DOCA significantly decreased KLOTHO gene expression, effects opposed by spironolactone treatment. Spironolactone treatment alone significantly increased KLOTHO and CYP27B1 transcript levels in HEK293 cells (24 hours) and mice (8 hours or 5 days). Moreover, spironolactone significantly increased klotho and CYP27B1 protein levels in HEK293 cells (48 hours). Reduced NR3C2 expression following silencing did not significantly affect KLOTHO and CYP27B1 transcript levels in presence or absence of spironolactone. Silencing of CYP27B1 and VDR significantly blunted the stimulating effect of spironolactone on KLOTHO mRNA levels in HEK293 cells. CONCLUSION Besides blocking the effects of aldosterone, spironolactone upregulates KLOTHO gene expression by upregulation of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 1-alpha-hydroxylase with subsequent activation of the vitamin D3 receptor by 1,25(OH)2D3, an effect possibly independent from the mineralocorticoid receptor.

Regulatory Effect of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 on Nitric Oxide Production in Activated Microglia
Microglia are activated by inflammatory and pathophysiological stimuli in neurodegenerative diseases, and activated microglia induce neuronal damage by releasing cytotoxic factors like nitric oxide (NO). Activated microglia synthesize a significant amount of vitamin D3 in the rat brain, and vitamin D3 has an inhibitory effect on activated microglia. To investigate the possible role of vitamin D...

Serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 concentration and renal 25-hydroxyvitamin D 1 a-hydroxylase activity were measured in rats fed various levels of calcium, phosphorus and vitamin D3. Both calcium deprivation and phosphorus deprivation greatly increased circulating levels of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. The circulating level of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in rats on a low-calcium diet increased with incr...

Klotho is a potent regulator of 1,25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] formation and calcium-phosphate metabolism. Klotho-hypomorphic mice (kl/kl mice) suffer from severe growth deficits, rapid aging, hyperphosphatemia, hyperaldosteronism, and extensive vascular and soft tissue calcification. Sequelae of klotho deficiency are similar to those of end-stage renal disease. We show here that the mine...

Using a cDNA probe for rat renal 24-hydroxylase, expression of its mRNA was compared in the rat kidney and intestine. Vitamin D-deficient rats received a single injection of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. Expression of 24-hydroxylase mRNA was first detected in the kidney at 3-h post-injection and increased thereafter. Similarly, 24-hydroxylase mRNA was expressed in the intestine after 1 alpha,...
