Chronic kidney disease (CKD) independently increases the rates of cardiovascular disease, whereas the severity of kidney disease correlates with increased cardiovascular morbidity and death. Vitamin D is modified in the liver and the kidney to its active form (1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D) by the 25-hydroxy vitamin D 1-hydroxylase enzyme (CYP27B1). The activated vitamin D brings about its actions th...
Soybean products are highly represented in the traditional Asian diet. Major components of soy proteins are phytoestrogens, such as isoflavones. They may be responsible for the extremely low incidence of prostate and mammary tumors and possibly also of colon cancer in countries such as China and Japan. Serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 level is inversely related to incidence of some cancers. Level...
BACKGROUND Levels of active vitamin D (VD) are controlled by synthesis via CYP27B1 and self-induced metabolism by CYP24A1. Unbalanced high CYP24A1 expression due to induction by diverse endogenous compounds and xenobiotics, and amplification found in various tumours, might lead to local VD deficiency, thereby causing/reinforcing disorders. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using primary human keratinocyt...
BACKGROUND To perform a comprehensive study on the relationship between vitamin D metabolism and the response to interferon-α-based therapy of chronic hepatitis C. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Associations between a functionally relevant polymorphism in the gene encoding the vitamin D 1α-hydroxylase (CYP27B1-1260 rs10877012) and the response to treatment with pegylated interferon-α (PEG-IFN...
The secosteroid hormone, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)2D], plays a crucial role in normal bone growth, calcium metabolism, and tissue differentiation. The key step in the biosynthesis of 1,25(OH)2D is its 1 alpha-hydroxylation from 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OHD) in the kidney. Because its expression in the kidney is very low, we cloned and sequenced cDNA for 25-OHD-1 alpha-hydroxylase (P450c1...
Vitamin D status increases during healthy mammalian pregnancy, but the molecular determinants remain uncharacterized. The first objective of this study was to determine the effects of pregnancy, and the second objective was to examine the role of chronic hypoxia on vitamin D status and metabolism in an ovine model. We analyzed the plasma levels of cholecalciferol, 25-OH-D, and 1α,25-(OH)2D in n...
The major role of 24-hydroxylase (CYP24A1) is to maintain 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) homeostasis. Recently, it has been discovered that CYP24A1 also catalyses the hydroxylation of 20(OH)D3, producing dihydroxy-derivatives that show very effective antitumorigenic activities. Previously we showed a negative correlation of vitamin D receptor (VDR) and CYP27B1 expression with progressio...
Abstract Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of herbal cake-partitioned moxibustion for ulcerative colitis (UC) and elucidate its mechanism by targeting vitamin D receptor (VDR) signaling pathway. Methods A total 63 patients with UC were randomly divided into an observation group (30 cases, treated moxibustion) a control (33 sham moxibustion). Moxibustion treatment was performed at Qihai...
1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D(3) [1,25(OH)(2)D(3)], the active form of vitamin D, exerts potent effects on several tissues including cells of the immune system, where it affects T cell activation, differentiation and migration. The circulating, inactive form of vitamin D, 25(OH)D(3), is generally used as an indication of vitamin D status. However, use of this precursor depends on its uptake by cells ...
Vitamin D deficiency is reported in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Allelic variations in the gene associated with vitamin D metabolism were reported to play a role in glucose metabolism. CYP2R1 and CYP27B1 gene polymorphisms were investigated as a candidate gene for T1DM in Korean youth. We measured serum level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D in 217 subjects a...
