چکیده

We investigated the effects of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3[1,25(OH)2D3] on paracellular intestinal Ca2+absorption by determination of transepithelial electric resistance (TEER), as a measure of tight-junction ion permeability and bidirectional transepithelial45Ca2+fluxes in confluent Caco-2 cell cultures. The rise of TEER to steady-state levels of ∼2,000 Ω ⋅ cm2 was significantly attenuated by 1,25(OH)2D3(by up to 50%) in a dose-dependent fashion between 10-11 and 10-8 M. Synthetic analogs of 1,25(OH)2D3, namely, 1α,25-dihydroxy-16-ene,23-yne-vitamin D3 and 1α,25-dihydroxy-26,27-hexafluoro-16-ene,23-yne-vitamin D3, exhibited similar biopotency, whereas their genomically inactive 1-deoxy congeners were only marginally effective. Enhancement of transepithelial conductance of Caco-2 cell monolayers by vitamin D was accompanied by a significant increase in bidirectional transepithelial45Ca2+fluxes. Although 1,25(OH)2D3also induced cellular45Ca2+uptake from the apical aspect of Caco-2 cell layers and upregulated the expression of calbindin-9kDa mRNA, no significant contribution of the Ca2+-adenosinetriphosphatase-mediated transcellular pathway to transepithelial Ca2+ transport could be detected. Therefore stimulation of Ca2+fluxes across confluent Caco-2 cells very likely results from a genomic effect of vitamin D sterols on assembly and permeability of tight-junctional complexes.

Tight junction proteins claudin-2 and -12 are critical for vitamin D-dependent Ca2+ absorption between enterocytes.

Ca(2+) is absorbed across intestinal epithelial monolayers via transcellular and paracellular pathways, and an active form of vitamin D(3), 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) [1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)], is known to promote intestinal Ca(2+) absorption. However, the molecules driving the paracellular Ca(2+) absorption and its vitamin D dependency remain obscure. Because the tight junction proteins clau...

Poly-L-arginine-Induced internalization of tight junction proteins increases the paracellular permeability of the Caco-2 cell monolayer to hydrophilic macromolecules.

We investigated whether poly-L-arginine (PLA) enhances the paracellular permeability of the Caco-2 monolayer to hydrophilic macromolecules and clarified the disposition of tight junction (TJ) proteins. The transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) and fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-dextran (FD-4) permeation were determined after treatment with PLA. TJ proteins were visualized using immuno...

Effect of chum salmon egg lectin on tight junctions in Caco-2 cell monolayers.

The effect of a chum salmon egg lectin (CSL3) on tight junction (TJ) of Caco-2 cell monolayers was investigated. The lectin opened TJ as indicated by the decrease of the transepithelial electrical resistance (TER) value and the increase of the permeation of lucifer yellow, which is transported via the TJ-mediated paracellular pathway. The effects of CSL3 were inhibited by the addition of 10 mM ...

Low-molecular-weight hyaluronan permeates through human intestinal Caco-2 cell monolayers via the paracellular pathway.

The intestinal permeability of low-molecular-weight hyaluronan (LMW-HA) was investigated by using cultured monolayers of Caco-2 cells. The amount of LMW-HA that permeated the Caco-2 monolayers was measured by a carbazole assay. The permeability of LMW-HA increased inversely with the molecular size and was dose-dependent. The transport was observed to be energy-independent, and was correlated wi...
