1. Metabolites of vitamin D3 were measured in the circulation of four patients on chronic haemodialysis (three of whom were surgically anephric) before and during daily ingestion of 40000 i.u. of cholecalciferol. 2. Circulating 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24,25-(OH)2D3] was measurable, but abnormally low before treatment; its circulating concentration rose in a substrate dependent manner when serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25-OHD3) increased, but the response was reduced when compared with the normal relationship. 3. Serum 1,25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2D3] and calcidiol lactone (25-OHD3-lactone) were consistently unmeasurable in sera from these patients before administration of cholecalciferol. However, when serum 25-OHD3 rose with treatment, 1,25-(OH)2D3 became detectable in the sera of three of the four patients and 25-OHD3-lactone could be measured in all of them. 4. These data indicate that extrarenal sites of synthesis of 24,25-(OH)2D3, 25-OHD3-lactone and 1,25-(OH)2D3 exist in chronically dialysed patients but require large amounts of substrate to be significant.

1. One-day-old chicks were depleted of vitamin D. At 3 weeks their right tibiae, and those of a control group given vitamin D3, were fractured and pinned. After fracture the controls were kept on vitamin D3. Another group was left vitamin D-deficient. The remaining depleted chicks, divided into four groups, were given vitamin D3, 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24,25(OH)2D3], 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] or a combination of 24,25(OH)2D3 and 1,25(OH)2D3. 2. The callus obtained after 9 and 14 days was subjected to torsional stress. The callus of chicks given vitamin D continuously showed the greatest resistance, whereas that of vitamin D-deficient chicks showed the smallest resistance. Repletion with either vitamin D3 or its metabolites increased the strength of the callus. Repletion with the combination of 24,25(OH)2D3 and 1,25(OH)2D3 produced the most marked results, in that the callus was even stronger than that of chicks replete with vitamin D3. 3. It is concluded that 24,25(OH)2D3 is essential for bone formation in addition to the known active vitamin D metabolite 1,25(OH)2D3, and the possible clinical implications of these findings are discussed.

Effects of 6-9 days of vitamin D3 (D3), 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3], 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24,25(OH)2D3], or 1,24,25-trihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,24,25(OH)3D3] on Mg metabolism were studied in vitamin D-deficient (-D) rats. Mg absorption expressed as percent intake increased with 1,25(OH)2D3 and 1,24,25(OH)3D3. Urinary Mg (UMg) increased with no change in serum Mg (SMg) or Mg balance. 1,25(OH)2D3 was threefold more potent than 1,24,25(OH)3D3 in raising serum Ca and Mg absorption. In a separate experiment in pair-fed rats given D3, 1,25-(OH)2D3, or 1,24,25(OH)3D3, the diet contained either 0.03 or 0.2% Mg; 1,25(OH)2D3 and D3 lowered SMg after 3 days; UMg increased after 24 h to remain elevated. D3 and 1,25(OH)2D3 augmented Mg absorption; feeding 0.2% Mg lowered Mg absorption in -D animals. All sterols augmented Mg absorption in -D rats; both the earlier action of 1,25(OH)2D3 and 1,24,25(OH)3D3 suggests that 1-hydroxylation is necessary. Suppressed Mg absorption with 0.2% Mg in -D rats suggests two transport processes, with one vitamin D dependent. Higher UMg with decreased SMg with 1,25(OH)2D3 suggests reduced tubular reabsorption.

The biochemical nature of the physiological defect found in chick embryos from hens supported on 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 as their sole source of vitamin D is described. Vitamin D-deficient hens (44-wk-old) were divided into six groups of five and dosed daily for 19 wk with either 2.0 micrograms of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, 2.0 micrograms of 24,24-difluoro-25-hydroxy-vitamin D3, 0.4 micrograms of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, 2.0 micrograms of 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, 0.4 micrograms of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 plus 2.0 micrograms of 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, or vehicle only. Normal embryonic development was found in eggs from hens given 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 or 24,24-difluoro-25-hydroxyvitamin D3, whereas embryos from hens given 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, or their combination were abnormal and failed to hatch. Embryos from hens fed 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and/or 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 had vitamin D deficiency: low bone ash, low plasma calcium, low total body calcium, and extremely high plasma phosphorus. Because the shell is the major source of calcium for the developing embryo, calcium transport from the shell to the embryos across the chorioallantoic membrane apparently fails, giving rise to the observed defects in embryonic development.

Background: 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25[OH]VD3) has recently been found to be an active hormone. Its biological actions are also demonstrated in various cell types. However, the precise influences of vitamin D3 (VD3) and its metabolites (25[OH]VD3, 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1α,25-(OH)2VD3]) on the osteoblast differentiation remain largely unknown. In this work, we investigated the effects of VD3 and its metabolites in different concentrations on the early and later osteoblast differentiation and biomineralization. Methods: We first used quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) to evaluate the responsiveness of osteoblasts to VD3, 25(OH)VD3 or 1α,25-(OH)2VD3. We also evaluated the proliferation, differentiation and biomineralization of osteoblast at different time points via cell counting kit-8 assay and the analysis of osteogenic markers. Results: The experimental results confirmed that osteoblasts could be responsive to 25(OH)VD3 and 1α,25-(OH)2VD3 but could not directly metabolize VD3 and 25(OH)VD3. Only 200 nmol/L VD3 significantly promoted osteoblast proliferation, while 25(OH)VD3 and 1α,25-(OH)2VD3 did not show obvious actions. Moreover, the early osteogenic markers were increased by 25(OH)VD3 and 1α,25-(OH)2VD3 in a dose-dependent manner. More importantly, only 25(OH)VD3 had accelerated the gene and protein expressions of osteocalcin and the biomineralization level of osteoblasts. Conclusions: Our findings provide reliable evidence that 25(OH)VD3 at 100–200 nmol/L can induce the early and later osteoblast differentiation and biomineralization for clinical bone tissue engineering.

Two 24-fluoro-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 analogues (3,4) were synthesized in a convergent manner. The introduction of a stereocenter to the vitamin D3 side-chain C24 position was achieved via Sharpless dihydroxylation, and a deoxyfluorination reaction was utilized for the fluorination step. Comparison between (24R)- and (24S)-24-fluoro-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 revealed that the C24-R-configuration isomer 4 was more resistant to CYP24A1-dependent metabolism than its 24S-isomer 3. The new synthetic route of the CYP24A1 main metabolite (24R)-24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (6) and its 24S-isomer (5) was also studied using synthetic intermediates (30,31) in parallel.
