Abstract
Current understanding of vitamin D tends to be focussed on the measurement of the major circulating form 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25OHD3) and its conversion to the active hormonal form, 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1α,25(OH)2 D3) via the enzyme 25-hydroxyvitamin D-1α-hydroxylase (CYP27B1). However, whilst these metabolites form the endocrine backbone of vitamin D physiology, it is important to recognise that there are other metabolic and catabolic pathways that are now recognised as being crucially important to vitamin D function. These pathways include C3-epimerization, CYP24A1 hydroxylase, CYP11A1 alternative metabolism of vitamin D3, and phase II metabolism. Endogenous metabolites beyond 25OHD3 are usually present at low endogenous levels and may only be functional in specific target tissues rather than in the general circulation. However, the technologies available to measure these metabolites have also improved, so that measurement of alternative vitamin D metabolic pathways may become more routine in the near future. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the various pathways of vitamin D metabolism, as well as describe the analytical techniques currently available to measure these vitamin D metabolites.

Abstract
Vitamin D, referring to the two forms, D2 from the diet and D3 primarily derived from phototransformation in the skin, is a prohormone important in human health. The most hormonally active form, 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1α,25(OH)2D), formed from vitamin D via 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), is not only important for regulating calcium metabolism, but has many pleiotropic effects including regulation of the immune system and has anti-cancer properties. The major circulating form of vitamin D is 25(OH)D and both D2 and D3 forms are routinely measured by LC/MS/MS to assess vitamin D status, due to their relatively long half-lives and much higher concentrations compared to 1α,25(OH)2D. Inactivation of both 25(OH)D and 1α,25(OH)2D is catalyzed by CYP24A1 and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 3-epimerase. Initial products from these enzymes acting on 25(OH)D3 are 24R,25(OH)2D3 and 3-epi-25(OH)D3, respectively, and both of these can also be measured routinely in some clinical laboratories to further document vitamin D status. With advances in LC/MS/MS and its increased availability, and with the help of studies with recombinant vitamin D-metabolizing enzymes, many other vitamin D metabolites have now been detected and in some cases quantitated, in human serum. CYP11A1 which catalyzes the first step in steroidogenesis, has been found to also act on vitamins D3 and D2 hydroxylating both at C20, but with some secondary metabolites produced by subsequent hydroxylations at other positions on the side chain. The major vitamin D3 metabolite, 20S-hydroxyvitamin D3 (20S(OH)D3), shows biological activity, often similar to 1α,25(OH)2D3 but without calcemic effects. Using standards produced enzymatically by purified CYP11A1 and characterized by NMR, many of these new metabolites have been detected in human serum, with semi-quantitative measurement of 20S(OH)D3 indicating it is present at comparable concentrations to 24R,25(OH)2D3 and 3-epi-25(OH)D3. Recently, vitamin D-related hydroxylumisterols derived from lumisterol3, a previtamin D3 photoproduct, have also been measured in human serum and displayed biological activity in initial in vitro studies. With the current extensive knowledge on the reactions and pathways of metabolism of vitamin D, especially those catalyzed by CYP24A1, CYP27A1, CYP27B1, CYP3A4 and CYP11A1, it is likely that many other of the resulting hydroxyvitamin D metabolites will be measured in human serum in the future, some contributing to a more detailed understanding of vitamin D status in health and disease.

Abstract
In vitro cell-based assays are common screening tools used for the identification of new VDR ligands. For 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3] and 1α-hydroxyvitamin D3 [1α(OH)D3], protein expressions of CYP2R1 and CYP27B1, respectively, that form the active 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] ligand were detected in human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cells expressing the GAL4-hVDR, the human brain microvessel endothelial (hCMEC/D3) and adenocarcinoma colonic (Caco-2) cells. The impact of bioactivation enzymes was shown upon the addition of ketoconazole (10 μM KTZ), a pan-CYP inhibitor, which reduced the apparent potency of 25(OH)D3 and increased the EC50 from 272 to 608 nM in HEK293 cells. EIA assays verified that 1,25(OH)2D3 was formed and contributed to VDR activity independently of its precursors. In hCMEC/D3 cells where enzyme protein levels were lowest, changes in MDR1/P-gp expression with KTZ were minimal. In Caco-2 cells, the induction of TRPV6 (calcium channel), CYP24A1, CYP3A4, OATP1A2 and MDR1 mRNA expression was 1,25(OH)2D3 > 1α(OH)D3 > 25(OH)D3, with the magnitude of change being blunted by KTZ. Upon inclusion of KTZ in the cell-based assays, high transcriptional activities were observed for synthetic VDR activators from Teijin Pharma. Cyclopentanone derivatives: TPD-003, TPD-005, TPD-006, TPD-008 and TPD-009 (EC50s 0.06 to 67 nM, unchanged with KTZ) were found more potent over straight chain and lactone derivatives (antagonists). Most TPD compounds activated OATP1A2, CYP24A1, CYP3A4, and MDR1 (28-67%) and TRPV6 transcriptionally in Caco-2 cells. The results identified that cell-based assays with added KTZ could accurately identify new VDR activators, although these may be hypercalcemic with strong TRPV6 inducing properties.

Abstract
Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) is a common inflammatory rheumatic disease with a predilection for the axial skeleton, affecting 0.2% of the population. Current diagnostic criteria rely on a composite of clinical and radiological changes, with a mean time to diagnosis of 5 to 10 years. In this study we employed nano liquid-chromatography mass spectrometry analysis to detect and quantify proteins and small compounds including endogenous peptides and metabolites in serum from 18 AS patients and nine healthy individuals. We identified a total of 316 proteins in serum, of which 22 showed significant up- or down-regulation (p < 0.05) in AS patients. Receiver operating characteristic analysis of combined levels of serum amyloid P component and inter-α-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain 1 revealed high diagnostic value for Ankylosing Spondylitis (area under the curve = 0.98). We also depleted individual sera of proteins to analyze endogenous peptides and metabolic compounds. We detected more than 7000 molecular features in patients and healthy individuals. Quantitative MS analysis revealed compound profiles that correlate with the clinical assessment of disease activity. One molecular feature identified as a Vitamin D3 metabolite—(23S,25R)-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 26,23-peroxylactone—was down-regulated in AS. The ratio of this vitamin D metabolite versus vitamin D binding protein serum levels was also altered in AS as compared with controls. These changes may contribute to pathological skeletal changes in AS. Our study is the first example of an integration of proteomic and metabolomic techniques to find new biomarker candidates for the diagnosis of Ankylosing Spondylitis.

Abstract
The ligand-based three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) for 82 inhibitors of 25-dehydro-1α-hydroxyvitamin D3 -26,23-lactone analogs has been studied by using comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA) models. The established CoMFA model in training set gives a cross-validated q(2) value of 0.516 and a non-cross-validated rncv (2) value of 0.667, while the CoMSIA model results in q(2) =0.517 and rncv (2) =0.632. In general, the predictive ability of the CoMFA model is superior to that of the CoMSIA model, with rpred (2) =0.639 for the CoMFA and rpred (2) =0.619 for the CoMSIA model. Based on the CoMFA contour maps, some key structural characters of vitamin D3 analogs responsible for inhibitory activity are identified, and some new C2α-modified 24-alkylvitamin D3 lactone analogs with high predicted pIC50 values are designed. The ligand functional group mutations by FEP simulation and docking studies reveal the rationality of the molecular design.

Abstract
TEI-9647 antagonizes vitamin D receptor (VDR) mediated genomic actions of 1α,25(OH)2D3in human cells but is agonistic in rodent cells. The presence of Cys403, Cys410 or of both residues in the C-terminal region of human VDR (hVDR) results in antagonistic action of this compound. In the complexes of TEI-9647 with wild-type hVDR (hVDRwt) and H397F hVDR, TEI-9647 functions as an antagonist and forms a covalent adduct with hVDR according to MALDI–TOF MS. The crystal structures of complexes of TEI-9647 with rat VDR (rVDR), H305F hVDR and H305F/H397F hVDR showed that the agonistic activity of TEI-9647 is caused by a hydrogen-bond interaction with His397 or Phe397 located in helix 11. Both biological activity assays and the crystal structure of H305F hVDR complexed with TEI-9647 showed that the interaction between His305 and TEI-9647 is crucial for antagonist activity. This study indicates the following stepwise mechanism for TEI-9647 antagonism. Firstly, TEI-9647 forms hydrogen bonds to His305, which promote conformational changes in hVDR and draw Cys403 or Cys410 towards the ligand. This is followed by the formation of a 1,4-Michael addition adduct between the thiol (–SH) group of Cys403 or Cys410 and theexo-methylene group of TEI-9647.

Abstract
Vitamin D receptor antagonist has attracted significant level of interests because of its potential utility in the treatment of Paget's disease, which is known as the most flagrant example of disordered bone remodeling and the second most common bone disease after osteoporosis in Anglo-Saxons. Recent studies on Paget's disease suggested a specific increase in osteoclasts sensitivity to the differentiation activity of active vitamin D(3) as the principal mechanism for abnormal bone formation. We set out to conduct a structure-activity relationship study on the first VDR antagonists of TEI-9647 and TEI-9648 (25-dehydro-1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D(3)-26,23-lactone) toward improved VDR antagonistic activity. Given that both potent agonists and antagonists must have high affinity for the VDR, we hoped that our accumulated knowledge in VDR agonists would help us identify potent antagonists. First, 2alpha-modified TEI-9647 analogs were synthesized, and then, 24-substitution was next investigated to stabilize its lactone structure under the physiological conditions. Finally, 2alpha-modified 24-methyl-, 24,24-dimethyl-25-dehydro-1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D(3)-26,23-lactone analogs were synthesized. It was found that 2alpha,24,24-trimethyl-TEI-9647 was found to possess approximately 90-fold improved antagonistic activity (IC(50) 0.093 nM) over the original TEI-9647 (IC(50) 8.3 nM).

Abstract
An efficient synthesis and the biological evaluation of 80 novel analogs of 25-dehydro-1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D3-26,23S-lactone 2 (TEI-9647) and its 23R epimer (3) in which the lactone ring was systematically functionalized by introduction of a C1 to C4 primary alkyl group at the C24 position (5 sets of 4 diastereomers), together with their C2alpha-methyl, 3-hydroxypropyl, and 3-hydroxypropoxy-substituted derivatives were described. The triene structure of the vitamin D3 was constructed using palladium-catalyzed alkenylative cyclization of the A-ring precursor enyne with the CD-ring counterpart bromoolefin having the C24-alkylated lactone moiety on the side chain. The CD-ring precursors having 23,24-cis lactones were prepared by using a chromium-mediated syn-selective allylation-lactonization process, and the 23,24-trans lactone derivatives were derived from these via inversion of the C23 stereochemistry. The biological evaluation revealed that both binding affinity for chick vitamin D hormone receptor and antagonistic activity (inhibition of vitamin D hormone induced HL-60 cell differentiation) were affected by the orientation and chain-length of the primary alkyl group on the lactone ring. Furthermore, the C2alpha-functionalization of the C24-alkylated vitamin D3 lactones dramatically enhanced their biological activities. The most potent compound to emerge, (23S,24S)-2alpha-(3-hydroxypropoxy)-24-propyl exhibited almost 1000-fold stronger antagonistic activity (IC50=7.4 pM) than 2 (IC50=6.3 nM).

Abstract
We reported that (23S)-25-dehydro-1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D(3)-26,23-lactone (TEI-9647) antagonizes vitamin D receptor (VDR)-mediated genomic actions of 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) [1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)] in human cells but is agonistic in rodent cells. Human and rat VDR ligand-binding domains are similar, but differences in the C-terminal region are important for ligand binding and transactivation and might determine the agonistic/antagonistic effects of TEI-9647. We tested TEI-9647 on 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) transactivation using SaOS-2 cells (human osteosarcoma) or ROS 24/1 cells (rat osteosarcoma) cotransfected with human or rodent VDR and a reporter. In both cell lines, TEI-9647 was antagonistic with wild-type human (h)VDR, but agonistic with overexpressed wild-type rat (r)VDR. VDR chimeras substituting the hVDR C-terminal region (activation function 2 domain) with corresponding rVDR residues diminished antagonism and increased agonism of TEI-9647. However, substitution of 25 C-terminal rVDR residues with corresponding hVDR residues diminished agonism and increased antagonism of TEI-9647. hVDR mutants (C403S, C410N) demonstrated that Cys403 and/or 410 was necessary for TEI-9647 antagonism of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) transactivation. These results suggest that species specificity of VDR, especially in the C-terminal region, determines the agonistic/antagonistic effects of TEI-9647 that determine, in part, VDR interactions with coactivators and emphasize the critical interaction between TEI-9647 and the two C-terminal hVDR Cys residues to mediate the antagonistic effect of TEI-9647.

Abstract
The synthesis of vitamin D(3) active metabolites [24R,25-(OH)(2)-D(3), 24S,25-(OH)(2)-D(3) and 1alpha,24R,25-(OH)(3)-D(3)] and the first 24-aminovitamin D(3) derivatives [24S-benzoylamino-25-OH-D(3) and 24S-benzoylamino-1alpha,25-(OH)(2)-D(3)] are reported. The stereogenic center at C-24 was generated through ultrasonically induced aqueous conjugate addition of iodide 8 to dioxolanone 6 or oxazolidinone 7. The vitamin D triene system was constructed using the Lythgoe approach. The synthetic route, which is both short (6 or 7 steps from iodide 8) and efficient (32-45% overall yield), constitutes a practical method for the preparation of 24-functionalized metabolites and analogues of vitamin D(3). The ultrasonically induced conjugate addition in the key step provides a novel example of a highly stereoselective reaction promoted by the zinc-copper couple in aqueous media.

Abstract
Recently, it was revealed that 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1alpha,25(OH)2D3) and 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (24,25(OH)2D3) were metabolized to their respective epimers of the hydroxyl group at C-3 of the A-ring. We now report the isolation and structural assignment of 3-epi-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (3-epi-25(OH)D3 as a major metabolite of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D3) and the further metabolism of C-3 epimers of vitamin D3 metabolites. When 25(OH)D3 was incubated with various cultured cells including osteosarcoma, colon adenocarcinoma, and hepatoblastoma cell lines, 3-epi-25(OH)D3 and 24,25 (OH)2D3 were commonly observed as a major and minor metabolite of 25(OH)D3, respectively. 25(OH)D3 was at least as sensitive to C-3 epimerization as 1alpha, 25(OH)2D3 which has been reported as a substrate for the C-3 epimerization reaction. Unlike these cultured cells, LLC-PK1 cells, a porcine kidney cell line, preferentially produced 24,25(OH)2D3 rather than 3-epi-25(OH)D3. We also confirmed the existence of 3-epi-25(OH)D3 in the serum of rats intravenously given pharmacological doses of 25(OH)D3. The cultured cells metabolized 3-epi-25OHD3 and 3-epi-1alpha,25(OH)2D3 to 3-epi-24,25(OH)2D3 and 3-epi-1alpha,24,25(OH)3D3, respectively. In addition, we demonstrated that 3-epi-25(OH)D3 was metabolized to 3-epi-1alpha,25(OH)2D3 by CYP27B1 and to 3-epi-24,25(OH)2D3 by CYP24 using recombinant Escherichia coli cell systems. 3-Epi-25(OH)D3, 3-epi-1alpha,25(OH)2D3, and 3-epi-24,25(OH)2D3 were biologically less active than 25(OH)D3, 1alpha,25(OH)2D3, and 24,25(OH)2D3, but 3-epi-1alpha,25(OH)2D3 showed to some extent transcriptional activity toward target genes and anti-proliferative/differentiation-inducing activity against human myeloid leukemia cells (HL-60). These results indicate that C-3 epimerization may be a common metabolic pathway for the major metabolites of vitamin D3.

Abstract
The synthesis of novel vitamin D receptor antagonists, 24-methyl-1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D(3) 26,23-lactones, is reported. We found that the biological activities of the vitamin D(3) lactones were affected by the structure of the lactone part. Furthermore, introduction of a 2alpha-methyl group into the 24-methylvitamin D(3) lactones dramatically enhanced their anti-vitamin D activity. [reaction: see text]

Abstract
Novel 2[small alpha]-methyl-, 2[small alpha]-(3-hydroxypropyl)- and 2[small alpha]-(3-hydroxypropoxy)-substituted 25-dehydro-1[small alpha]-hydroxyvitamin D-26,23-lactone derivatives were efficiently synthesized Reformatsky type allylation and palladium-catalyzed alkenylative cyclization processes, and their biological activities were evaluated. Introducing functional groups into the 2[small alpha]-position of the vitamin D-26,23-lactones resulted in remarkable enhancement of their antagonistic activity on vitamin D receptor (VDR).

Abstract
The steroid hormone 1 alpha,25(OH)(2)-vitamin D(3) [1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)] mediates through its widely distributed nuclear receptor (VDR(nuc)) regulation of gene transcription (genomic responses) and through a putative membrane receptor (VDR(mem)) a variety of rapid responses. Rapid responses studied in our laboratories include opening of voltage-gated calcium and chloride channels in ROS 17/2.8 osteoblast cells, activation of MAP-kinase in human leukemia NB4 cells and chick intestinal cells, release of insulin by rat pancreatic beta-cells, and in chick duodena transcaltachia (the rapid hormonal stimulation of intestinal Ca(2+) transport). 1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) is conformationally flexible (side chain, seco B-ring and A-ring) and accordingly is able to generate a large array of different shapes to serve as ligands for available receptors (VDR(nuc) and VDR(mem)) in the vitamin D endocrine system. Our laboratories have utilized a number of conformationally restricted analogs of 1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) (from a library of several hundred analogs) to evaluate the preferred shape of the ligands for rapid and genomic responses. The determination of the X-ray structure of the 1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)-occupied VDR(nuc) revealed that the preferred ligand shape was a twisted 6-s-trans bowl shape [Molecular Cell 5 (2000) 173-179]. Optimal agonists for genomic responses include 1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) and other side chain conformationally flexible analogs such as 20-epi-1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) [approximately equal to 200-500-fold more potent than 1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)] and 21-(3'-hydroxy-3-methylbutyl)-1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) [an analog with two side chains] all which can achieve the preferred VDR(nuc) shape. In contrast, rapid responses require a 6-s-cis shape of the agonist ligand such as can be achieved by the natural hormone 1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) or by analogs permanently locked in the 6-s-cis shape such as 1 alpha,25(OH)(2)lumisterol(3) or 1 alpha,25(OH)(2)-7-dehydrocholesterol. Additionally, we have discovered analogs that are specific in their antagonist properties for either rapid or genomic responses. Thus, 1 beta,25(OH)(2)D(3) is an antagonist of only rapid responses [via the VDR(mem)], while 23S-25-dehydro-1 alpha,25(OH)D(3)-26,23-lactone is an antagonist of only nuclear responses [via the VDR(nuc)]. In conclusion, we have presented evidence that 1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) mediated rapid response and genomic response signal transduction pathways utilize differing shapes of ligand, both as agonists and antagonists.

Abstract
We synthesized various analogues of 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3)-26,23-lactone and examined the effects of them on HL-60 cell differentiation using the evaluation system of the genomic action of 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3). We found that (23S)- and (23R)-25-dehydro-1alpha-OH-D(3)-26,23-lactone (TEI-9647 and TEI-9648) strongly bound to the VDR, but did not induce HL-60 cell differentiation. Intriguingly, TEI-9647 and TEI-9648 did inhibit that induced by 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3), whereas they did not suppress that caused by retinoic acid or TPA. On the contrary, the similar 25-dehydrated 24-dehydro analogues, TEI-D1807 and TEI-D1808, weakly but significantly induced HL-60 cell differentiation, never showing inhibitory effect on HL-60 cell differentiation induced by 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3). In other experiments, TEI-9647 and TEI-9648 markedly suppressed 25-OH-D(3)-24-hydroxylase gene expression induced by 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3) in HL-60 cells. TEI-9647 also inhibited the heterodimer formation between VDR and RXRalpha, and the VDR interaction with co-activator SRC-1 according to the results obtained from the mammalian two-hybrid system in Saos-2 cells. Taking all these results into consideration, we reached a manifest conclusion that TEI-9647 and TEI-9648 are the specific and first antagonists of 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3) action, specifically VDR-VDRE mediated genomic action.

Abstract
We have demonstrated that 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3)-26, 23-lactone analogs, (23S)- and (23R)-25-dehydro-1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D(3)-26,23-lactone (TEI-9647, TEI-9648, respectively), inhibit HL-60 cell differentiation induced by 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) [1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)], but not differentiation caused by all-trans retinoic acid (D. Miura et al., 1999, J. Biol. Chem. 274, 16392). To assess whether the antagonistic actions of TEI-9647 and TEI-9648 in HL-60 cells are related to 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) breakdown, we investigated their effects on catabolism of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3). In HL-60 cells, the C-24 but not the C-23 side-chain oxidation pathway of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) has been reported. Here we demonstrate that 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) was metabolized both to 24,25,26,27-tetranor-1alpha,23-(OH)(2)D(3) and 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)-26,23-lactone; thus HL-60 cells constitutively possess both the 24- and the 23-hydroxylases. Metabolism of 1alpha, 25(OH)(2)D(3) was strongly suppressed by 10(-7) M TEI-9647 or 10(-6) M TEI-9648. 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) alone slightly induced 24-hydroxylase gene expression by 8 h with full enhancement by 24-48 h; this induction was inhibited by 10(-6) M TEI-9647 and 10(-6) M TEI-9648 (86.2 and 31.9%, respectively) 24 h after treatment. However, analogs of TEI-9647 and TEI-9648 without the 25-dehydro functionality induced 24-hydroxylase gene expression. These results indicate that TEI-9647 and TEI-9648 clearly mediate their stereoselective antagonistic actions independent of their actions to block the catabolism of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3). Therefore, TEI-9647 and TEI-9648 appear to be the first antagonists specific for the nuclear 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) receptor-mediated genomic actions of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) in HL-60 cells.

Abstract
We examined the effects of two novel 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone (1alpha,25-lactone) analogues on human promyelocytic leukemia cell (HL-60) differentiation using the evaluation system of the vitamin D nuclear receptor (VDR)/vitamin D-responsive element (DRE)-mediated genomic action stimulated by 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1alpha,25(OH)2D3) and its analogues. We found that the 1alpha,25-lactone analogues (23S)-25-dehydro-1alpha-hydroxyvitamin-D3-26,23-lactone (TEI-9647), and (23R)-25-dehydro-1alpha-hydroxyvitamin-D3-26,23-lactone (TEI-9648) bound much more strongly to the VDR than the natural (23S, 25R)-1alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone, but did not induce cell differentiation even at high concentrations (10(-6) M). Intriguingly, the differentiation of HL-60 cells induced by 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 was inhibited by either TEI-9647 or TEI-9648 but not by the natural lactone. In contrast, retinoic acid or 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate-induced HL-60 cell differentiation was not blocked by TEI-9647 or TEI-9648. In separate studies, TEI-9647 (10(-7) M) was found to be an effective antagonist of both 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 (10(-8) M) mediated induction of p21(WAF1, CIP1) in HL-60 cells and activation of the luciferase reporter assay in COS-7 cells transfected with cDNA containing the DRE of the rat 25(OH)D3-24-hydroxylase gene and cDNA of the human VDR. Collectively the results strongly suggest that our novel 1alpha,25-lactone analogues, TEI-9647 and TEI-9648, are specific antagonists of 1alpha, 25(OH)2D3 action, specifically VDR/DRE-mediated genomic action. As such, they represent the first examples of antagonists, which act on the nuclear VDR.

Abstract
We recently identified 1alpha,25-dihydroxy-3-epi-vitamin D3 as a major in vitro metabolite of 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, produced in primary cultures of neonatal human keratinocytes. We now report the isolation of 1alpha,25-dihydroxy-3-epi-vitamin D3 from the serum of rats treated with pharmacological doses of 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. 1alpha,25-dihydroxy-3-epi-vitamin D3 was identified through its co-migration with synthetic 1alpha,25-dihydroxy-3-epi-vitamin D3 on both straight and reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography systems and by mass spectrometry. Along with 1alpha,25-dihydroxy-3-epi-vitamin D3, other previously known metabolites, namely, 1alpha,24(R),25-trihydroxyvitamin D3, 1alpha,25-dihydroxy-24-oxo-vitamin D3 and 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone, were also identified. Thus, our study for the first time provides direct evidence to indicate that 1alpha,25-dihydroxy-3-epi-vitamin D3 is an in vivo metabolite of 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in rats.

Abstract
After intravenous administration of the vitamin D3 analog, 22-oxacalcitriol (OCT), to normal rats plasma metabolites were investigated by HPLC, GC-MS and LC-MS. Five side-chain oxidation metabolites, 24R(OH)OCT, 24S(OH)OCT, (25R)-26(OH)OCT, (25S)-26(OH)OCT and 24oxoOCT, were identified by comparison with the corresponding synthetic compounds. These side-chain oxidation metabolites were similar to those of calcitriol [1alpha,25(OH)2 vitamin D3] described previously. Besides these five metabolites, two unique side-chain cleavage metabolites, 20S(OH)-hexanor-OCT and 17,20S(OH)2-hexanor-OCT, were identified as main metabolites in plasma by GC-MS and LC-MS using a specific chemical reaction. Our studies suggest that OCT is extensively metabolized and circulates in blood as a number of metabolites as well as unchanged OCT. This metabolism includes both unique pathways of C23-O22 cleavage and 17-hydroxylation, in addition to the side-chain oxidation metabolites similar to those of 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3.

Abstract
The characteristics of the mass spectra of vitamin D3 related compounds were investigated by GC-MS and LC-MS using 22-oxacalcitriol (OCT), an analog of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, and related compounds. Fragmentation during GC-MS (electron impact ionization) of TMS-derivatives of OCT and the postulated metabolites gave useful structural information concerning the vitamin D3-skeleton and its side-chain, especially with respect to the oxidation positions of metabolites. In contrast, few fragment ions were observed in LC-MS (atmospheric pressure chemical ionization), showing that LC-MS gave poor structural information, except for molecular mass. However, when comparing the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) observed during GC-MS and LC-MS analysis for OCT in plasma extracts, the S/N in LC-MS was over ten-times greater than in GC-MS, possibly due to the low recovery on derivatization and thermal-isomerization in GC-MS. Furthermore, both the GC-MS and the LC-MS allowed the analysis of many postulated metabolites in a single injection without any prior isolation of target metabolites from biological fluids by LC. These results suggest that GC-MS and LC-MS analysis for vitamin D3 related compounds such as OCT each have unique and distinct advantages. Therefore, the complementary use of both techniques enables the rapid and detailed characterization of vitamin D3 related compounds.

Abstract
The effects of the four diastereoisomers of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone (1,25-(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone) on alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity and collagen and noncollagen protein synthesis were examined in cultures of the osteoblastic clone MC3T3-E1 cell line. The four lactone diastereoisomers had little effect on the protein and DNA content of the cells. The 23(S),25(S)- and 23(R),25(R)-1,25-(OH)2D3-26,23-lactones increased AP activity in a linear dose-dependent fashion. Maximal effects were observed at 100 and 1000 pg/ml, respectively. In contrast, the naturally occurring 23(S),25(R)-, 1,25-(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone and the 23(R),25(S)-1,25-(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone showed biphasic stimulatory effects on AP activity. At both 80 and 10,000 pg/ml, they stimulated maximum increases in alkaline phosphatase activity. At 80 pg/ml the 23(S),25(R)- and 23(R),25(S)-isomers stimulated an increase in collagen synthesis, while at 10,000 pg/ml these isomers and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-(OH)2D3) did not. Moreover, these two isomers (at 10,000 pg/ml) plus insulin or dexamethasone had an additive effect on AP activity, but not at 80 pg/ml. At 80 pg/ml but not at 10,000 pg/ml, the 23(S),25(R)-isomer had an additive effect on AP activity with the simultaneous addition of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3. Relative to 1,25-(OH)2D3, the binding affinities of 23(S),25(S)-, 23(R),25(R)-, 23(S),25(R)- and 23(R),25(S)-1,25-(OH)2D3-26,23-lactones were calculated to be 1/13.0, 1/131.8, 1/805.2, and 1/1083.3, respectively. No metabolites could be detected in the medium when [1-3H]23(S),25(R)-1,25-(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone (the naturally occurring diastereoisomer) was added to the cultures. However, the stimulative effects of 1,25-(OH)2D3 and the 23(S),25(R)-isomer at both concentrations were completely abolished by L-1-tosyl-amido-2-phenylethyl chloromethyl ketone. These results indicate that 1,25-(OH)2D3-lactone has a stimulative effect on osteoblastic cell functions in vitro. The naturally occurring 23(S),25(R)-1,25-(OH)2D3-lactone acts biphasically and may act on bone metabolism in vivo, possibly through a 1,25-(OH)2D3-receptor-mediated pathway.

Abstract
The metabolic pathway from 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3] to 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone includes the formation of 1 alpha,23,25-26-tetrahydroxyvitamin D3 [1 alpha,23,25,26-(OH)4D3]. The aim of the current study was to explore the as yet unknown biological properties of this vitamin D3 sterol. The four diastereoisomers of 1 alpha,23,25,26-(OH)4D3 were chemically synthesized. They were compared to 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3 in terms of their affinity for the chick intestinal 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3 receptor and their biologic activity in vivo (stimulation of intestinal calcium absorption and mobilization of calcium from bone in vitamin D-deficient rats). The 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor binding affinities of 1 alpha,23(R)25(R)26-(OH)4D3, 1 alpha,23(S)25(S)26-(OH)4 D3, 1 alpha,23(S)25(R)26-(OH)4D3, and 1 alpha,23(R)25(S)26-(OH)4D3 were 11, 100, 216, and 443 times weaker than the binding affinity of 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3, respectively. Compared to 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3, the relative capacities of the 1 alpha,23,25,26-(OH)4D3 compounds to stimulate intestinal calcium absorption were 1/4 for 1 alpha,23(R)25(R)26-(OH)4D3; 1/19 for 1 alpha,23(S)25(S)26-(OH)4D3; 1/90 for 1 alpha,23(S)25(R)26-(OH)4D3; and 1/136 for 1 alpha,23(R)25(S)26-(OH)4D3. Maximal stimulation of intestinal calcium transport occurred 8 h after administration of vitamin D3 metabolites. Mobilization of calcium from bone was quantitated by serum calcium concentration measurements. The activities of 1 alpha,23(R)25(R)26-(OH)4D3, 1 alpha,23(S)25(S)26-(OH)4D3, 1 alpha,23(S)25(R)26-(OH)4D3, and 1 alpha,23(R)25(S)26-(OH)4D3 to increase serum calcium were estimated to be 4, 13, 43, and 69 times weaker than that of 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3, respectively. These results illustrate the stereospecificity of the chicken intestine 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3 receptor for binding of 1 alpha,23,25,26-(OH)4D3 and suggest that the 1 alpha,23,25,26-(OH)4D3 exerts its biological activity in the rat through an interaction with 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptors. In summary, the 1 alpha,23,25,26-(OH)4D3 had a markedly lower biological activity than 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3.

Abstract
Evidence is accumulating that, in vivo and in vitro, both 25-OH-D3 and 1,25-(OH)2D3 undergo side-chain modification leading to side-chain cleaved metabolites lacking the 24, 25, 26, and 27 carbons. The enzymes involved are D-dependent and are located in the kidney, bone, intestine, and perhaps other sites. We speculate that the extra-renal side-chain pathway may be primarily for target organ destruction of 1,25-(OH)2D3, whereas the renal pathway may be primarily for destruction of 25-OH-D3 formed in large amounts in hypervitaminosis D.

Abstract
All four possible diastereoisomers of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol-26,23-lactone (1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone) were chemically synthesized and were compared to 1 alpha,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol (1 alpha,25(OH)2D3) in terms of their stimulation, in vivo, of intestinal calcium transport and mobilization of calcium from bone in vitamin D-deficient rats (the two classic vitamin D-mediated responses), and their relative binding to the chick intestinal cytosol receptor for 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3. The receptor binding affinity results are expressed as relative competitive index (RCI), where the RCI is defined as 100 for 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3. The RCI obtained for 23(S)25(S)-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone was 7.90, for 23(R)25(R)-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone was 2.27, 23(S)25(R)-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone was 0.17, for 23(R)25(S)-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone 0.22 and for the in vivo produced 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone the RCI was only 0.17. Also the four diastereoisomers of 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone all stimulated intestinal calcium transport, reaching a maximum 8 h after administration. Compared with the stimulation of intestinal calcium transport by 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3, 23(S)25(S)-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone was 1/4 as effective, 23(R)25(R)-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone was 1/20 as effective, 23(S)25(R)-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone was 1/74 as effective and 23(R)25(S)-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone was 1/53 as effective. Similarly, 23(S)25(S)-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone and 23(R)25(R)-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone were estimated to be 3 and 20 times less active than 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3 in elevation of serum calcium. However, 23(S)25(R)-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone and 23(R)25(S)-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone decreased the serum calcium levels 24 h after administration. 23(S)25(R)-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone reduced serum calcium concentrations to a greater extent than 23(R)25(S)-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone. These results indicate that the biological activities of the diastereoisomers of 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone were quite different among four stereochemical configurations.

Abstract
Three new metabolites of vitamin D2 were produced in vitro by perfusing isolated rat kidneys with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2. They were isolated and purified from the kidney perfusate by the techniques of methanol-methylene chloride lipid extraction and high-performance liquid chromatography. By means of ultraviolet absorption spectrophotometry, mass spectrometry, and specific chemical reactions, the metabolites were identified as 1,24,25-trihydroxyvitamin D2, 1,24,25,28-tetrahydroxyvitamin D2, and 1,24,25,26-tetrahydroxyvitamin D2. Both 1,24,25,28-tetrahydroxyvitamin D2 and 1,24,25,26-tetrahydroxyvitamin D2 were also produced when a kidney was perfused with 1,24,25-trihydroxyvitamin D2. Thus, it becomes clear that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2 is first hydroxylated at C-24 to form 1,24,25-trihydroxyvitamin D2, which is then further hydroxylated at C-28 and C-26 to form 1,24,25,28-tetrahydroxyvitamin D2 and 1,24,25,26-tetrahydroxyvitamin D2, respectively. From several recent studies, it has been well established that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 is converted into various further metabolites in the kidney as a result of chemical reactions such as C-23, C-24, and C-26 hydroxylations, C-24 ketonization, and C-23:C-26 lactonization. From our study it is obvious that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2 does not undergo all of the aforementioned chemical reactions except C-24 and C-26 hydroxylations. Also, our study indicates that C-28 hydroxylation plays a significant role in the further metabolism of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2. Thus, for the first time, we describe a novel further metabolic pathway for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2 in a mammalian kidney.

Abstract
Four possible diastereoisomers of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone were chemically synthesized and compared with the natural metabolite by high-pressure liquid chromatography. The four synthetic diastereoisomers of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone could be separated into three peaks by high-pressure liquid chromatography. The naturally occurring 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone isolated from dog serum and in vitro incubation of chick kidney homogenates comigrated with 23(S)25(R)-1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone. The four diastereoisomers of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone were tested against naturally occurring 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone to determine their relative competition in the 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-specific cytosol receptor binding assay for 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. 23(S)25(S)-1 alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone was the best competitor followed by 23(R)25(R)-1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone and 23(R)25(S)-1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone, and 23(S)25(R)-1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone was the poorest competitor. Natural 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone isolated from dog serum had almost the same binding affinity as that of 23(S)25(R)-1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone. These data unequivocally demonstrate that the stereochemistry of the natural 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone has the 23(S) and 25(R) configuration.
