Jones G, Prosser DE, Kaufmann M. 25-Hydroxyvitamin D-24-hydroxylase (CYP24A1): its important role in the degradation of vitamin D. Arch Biochem Biophys 2011; 523:9-18. [PMID: 22100522 DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2011.11.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 339] [Impact Index Per Article: 26.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2011] [Revised: 10/19/2011] [Accepted: 11/01/2011] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
CYP24A1 is the cytochrome P450 component of the 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3)-24-hydroxylase enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3) (25-OH-D(3)) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25-(OH)(2)D(3)) into 24-hydroxylated products, which constitute the degradation of the vitamin D molecule. This review focuses on recent data in the CYP24A1 field, including biochemical, physiological and clinical developments. Notable among these are: the first crystal structure for rat CYP24A1; mutagenesis studies which change the regioselectivity of the enzyme; and the finding that natural inactivating mutations of CYP24A1 cause the genetic disease idiopathic infantile hypercalcemia (IIH). The review also discusses the emerging correlation between rising serum phosphate/FGF-23 levels and increased CYP24A1 expression in chronic kidney disease, which in turn underlies accelerated degradation of both serum 25-OH-D(3) and 1,25-(OH)(2)D(3) in this condition. This review concludes by evaluating the potential clinical utility of blocking this enzyme with CYP24A1 inhibitors in various disease states.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Patients with chronic renal disease have elevated serum phosphate levels, elevated fibroblast-like growth factor 23 (FGF-23), and declining vitamin D status. These changes are related and may be responsible for elevated 25-hydroxyvitamin D-24-hydroxylase (CYP24A1) and dysfunctional vitamin D metabolism. This review focuses on the biochemistry and pathophysiology of CYP24A1 and the utility of blocking this enzyme with CYP24A1 inhibitors in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. RECENT FINDINGS CYP24A1 is the cytochrome P450 enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25-OHD3) and its hormonal form, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2D3], into 24-hydroxylated products targeted for excretion. The CYP24A1-null phenotype is consistent with the catabolic role of CYP24A1. A number of polymorphisms of CYP24A1 have recently been identified. New data from the uremic rat and humans suggest that dysfunctional vitamin D metabolism is due to changes in CYP24A1 expression caused by phosphate and FGF-23 elevations. SUMMARY Changes in serum phosphate and FGF-23 levels in the CKD patient increase CYP24A1 expression resulting in decreased vitamin D status. Vitamin D deficiency may exacerbate defective calcium and phosphate homeostasis causing renal osteodystrophy and contribute to the other complications of renal disease. These findings argue for increased focus on correcting vitamin D deficiency in CKD patients by blocking CYP24A1 activity.

Abstract
Calcitriol (1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol), the most active form of vitamin D, has selective anti-proliferative effects on tumor-derived endothelial cells (TDEC) compared with Matrigel-derived endothelial cells (MDEC). Although both cell types have an intact vitamin D receptor-signaling axis, this study demonstrates that upon treatment with calcitriol, 24-hydroxylase (CYP24) mRNA, protein and enzymatic activity were markedly induced in MDEC in a time-dependent manner but not in TDEC. Furthermore, treatment of MDEC with a CYP24 small interfering RNA restored sensitivity to calcitriol. To investigate the lack of CYP24 induction in TDEC, we examined methylation patterns in the promoter regions of the CYP24 gene in these two cell types. We identified two putative CpG island regions located at the 5' end. Using methylation-specific PCR and bisulfite sequencing, we determined that these CpG islands were hypermethylated in TDEC but not in MDEC. These data may explain the recruitment of vitamin D receptor to the promoter region in MDEC but not TDEC, as revealed by chromatin immunoprecipitation analyses. Treatment of TDEC with the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine restored calcitriol-mediated induction of CYP24, which led to loss of sensitivity to calcitriol growth inhibitory effects. CYP24 promoter hypermethylation was also observed in endothelial cells isolated from other tumors but not in endothelial cells isolated from normal mouse tissues. These observations indicate that the methylation status of the CYP24 promoter differs in endothelial cells isolated from different microenvironments (tumor versus normal) and that methylation silencing of CYP24 contributes to selective calcitriol-mediated growth inhibition in endothelial cells.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine, in peripheral blood monocytes (PBM), whether the enzymatic activities of fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase), cytidine deaminase (CDDase) and 24-hydroxylase (CYP24), enzymes regulated by calcitriol are useful pharmacodynamic (PD) measures of calcitriol effects in cancer patients. METHODS Cancer patients enrolled in a phase I clinical trial of calcitriol and carboplatin were studied. Baseline and calcitriol-induced changes in FBPase, CDDase and CYP24 activities were measured in PBM collected before, 6, 24, and 48 h after administration of calcitriol, prior to carboplatin, in doses ranging from 4 to 11 mug daily for 3 consecutive days (QDx3). Normal FBPase, CYP24 and CDDase activities were measured in PBM from untreated healthy volunteers. RESULTS Baseline activities in PBM from cancer patients and healthy volunteers were (median and range): 1.0 (0.0-43.5) and 4.4 (3.1- 8.2) nmol/min/mg protein for FBPase (P = 0.002); 2.5 (0.9-9.3) and 0.8 (0.4-2.0) fmol/h/10(6) cells for CYP24 (P = 0.016), and 5.6 (2.5-22.3) and 6.6 (1.1-47.4) nmol/min/mg protein for CDDase (P > 0.05), respectively. All calcitriol doses achieved peak serum calcitriol levels > x3 the physiological levels, increased cancer patient PBM FBPase activity to normal levels and decreased CDDase activity to undetectable levels within 48 h, with no significant change in CYP24 activity. These enzyme activity changes were not associated with hypercalcemia. CONCLUSIONS Calcitriol treatment-induced increase in FBPase and decrease in CDDase activities in cancer patient PBM are potential early and sensitive non-hypercalcemia PD measures of calcitriol effects.

Abstract
Patients with chronic renal failure frequently develop secondary hyperparathyroidism, primarily as a result of phosphate retention and low serum 1,25(OH)2D3. Replacement therapy with calcitriol or its synthetic precursor alfacalcidol [1alpha(OH)D3] often produces hypercalcemia, especially when combined with calcium-based phosphate binders. In addition, the natural vitamin D compounds can exacerbate the hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic renal failure. This combined increase in calcium and phosphate has been correlated with vascular calcification leading to coronary artery disease, the most common cause of mortality in renal patients. Several vitamin D analogs have now been developed that retain the direct suppressive action of calcitriol on the parathyroid glands but have less calcemic activity, thereby offering a safer and more effective means of controlling secondary hyperparathyroidism. Maxacalcitol [22-oxa-1,25(OH)2D3] and falecalcitriol [1,25(OH)2-26,27-F6-D3] are currently available in Japan, and paricalcitol [19-nor-1,25(OH)2D2] and doxercalciferol [1alpha(OH)D2] are available in the US. The mechanisms by which these analogs exert their selective actions on the parathyroid glands are under investigation. The low calcemic activity of maxacalcitol has been attributed to its rapid clearance from the circulation. This prevents sustained effects on intestinal calcium absorption and bone resorption, but still allows a prolonged suppression of parathyroid hormone gene expression. The selectivity of the other analogs is achieved by distinct mechanisms. Understanding how these compounds exert their selective actions on the parathyroid glands will aid in the design of safer, more effective analogs.

Abstract
26,26,26,27,27,27-Hexafluoro-1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) [F(6)-1alpha, 25(OH)(2)D(3)], which is now clinically used as a drug for secondary hyperparathyroidism, is a hexafluorinated analog of the active form of vitamin D(3). Our previous studies demonstrated that CYP24A1 is responsible for the metabolism of F(6)-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) in the target tissues and that F(6)-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) was successively converted to F(6)-1alpha,23S,25(OH)(3)D(3) and F(6)-23-oxo-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3). In this study, we examined the metabolism of F(6)-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3),F(6)-1alpha,23S,25(OH)(3)D(3), and F(6)-23-oxo-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) by human UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs). Of these compounds, F(6)-1alpha,23S,25(OH)(3)D(3) was remarkably glucuronidated both in human liver microsomes and in the recombinant system expressing human UGT. No significant interindividual differences were observed among 10 human liver samples. The recombinant system for 12 species of human UGTs revealed that F(6)-1alpha,23S,25(OH)(3)D(3) glucuronidation was specifically catalyzed by UGT1A3. The information obtained in this study seems very useful to predict the metabolism and efficacy of vitamin D analogs in human bodies before clinical trials. In addition, note that for the first time a possible probe substrate for UGT1A3 has been found.

Abstract
The steroid hormone 1alpha,25(OH)(2)-Vitamin D(3) [1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)] exerts a wide variety of biological actions through one or more receptors/binding proteins. The nuclear Vitamin D receptor (VDR) when bound to its natural ligand, 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3), can stimulate transcription of a wide variety of genes. The synthesis of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) analogs allows the study of structure-function relationships between ligand and the VDR. 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) is a conformationally flexible molecule; specifically the side-chain of the hormone can display a large variety of shapes for its receptor. Here, we describe and analyze the properties of 10 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) analogs modified at the side-chain of which five lack carbon-19 (19-nor) but have a novel 20-cyclopropyl functionality. Analog NG [20,21-methylene-23-yne-26,27-F(6)-19-nor-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)] possesses a respectable binding affinity for the VDR and exhibits a high transcriptional activity (EC(50) approximately 10pM), while retaining low induction of hypercalcemia in vivo in the mouse, making it a primary candidate for further analyses of its anti-proliferative and/or cell differentiating properties.

Abstract
The elucidation of the metabolic pathway for vitamin D, including the delineation of the specific cytochrome P450s (CYPs) involved in activation and catabolism, has emphasized the overall importance of metabolic considerations in vitamin D analog design. This short review attempts to summarize recent findings with isolated CYPs and animal models in which CYPs are genetically manipulated to draw attention to structural features of vitamin D analogs that make them more or less resistant to metabolic enzymes. We conclude by placing metabolic considerations in the context of the other important aspects of vitamin D analogs.

Abstract
The compound 26,26,26,27,27,27-F(6)-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) is a hexafluorinated analog of the active form of Vitamin D(3). The enhanced biological activity of F(6)-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) is considered to be related to a decreased metabolic inactivation of the compound in target tissues such as the kidneys, small intestine, and bones. Our previous study demonstrated that CYP24 is responsible for the metabolism of F(6)-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) in the target tissues. In this study, we compared the human and rat CYP24-dependent metabolism of F(6)-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) by using the Escherichia coli expression system. In the recombinant E. coli cells expressing human CYP24, bovine adrenodoxin and NADPH-adrenodoxin reductase, F(6)-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) was successively converted to F(6)-1alpha,23S,25(OH)(3)D(3), F(6)-23-oxo-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3), and the putative ether compound with the same molecular mass as F(6)-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3). The putative ether was not observed in the recombinant E. coli cells expressing rat CYP24. These results indicate species-based difference between human and rat CYP24 in the metabolism of F(6)-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3). In addition, the metabolite with a cleavage at the C(24)z.sbnd;C(25) bond of F(6)-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) was detected as a minor metabolite in both human and rat CYP24. Although F(6)-1alpha,23S,25(OH)(3)D(3) and F(6)-23-oxo-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) had a high affinity for Vitamin D receptor, the side-chain cleaved metabolite and the putative ether showed extremely low affinity for Vitamin D receptor. These findings indicate that human CYP24 has a dual pathway for metabolic inactivation of F(6)-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) while rat CYP24 has only one pathway. Judging from the fact that metabolism of F(6)-1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) in rat CYP24-harboring E. coli cells is quite similar to that in the target tissues of rat, the metabolism seen in human CYP24-harboring E. coli cells appear to exhibit the same metabolism as in human target tissues. Thus, this recombinant system harboring human CYP24 appears quite useful for predicting the metabolism and efficacy of Vitamin D analogs in human target tissues before clinical trials.

Abstract
The secosteroid hormone, 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) [1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)], induces differentiation of the human promyelocytic leukemia (HL-60) cells into monocytes/macrophages. At present, the metabolic pathways of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) and the biologic activity of its various natural intermediary metabolites in HL-60 cells are not fully understood. 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) is metabolized in its target tissues via modifications of both the side chain and the A-ring. The C-24 oxidation pathway, the main side chain modification pathway initiated by hydroxylation at C-24 leads to the formation of the end product, calcitroic acid. The C-23 and C-26 oxidation pathways, the minor side chain modification pathways initiated by hydroxylations at C-23 and C-26 respectively together lead to the formation of the end product, 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)-lactone. The C-3 epimerization pathway, the newly discovered A-ring modification pathway is initiated by epimerization of the hydroxyl group at C-3 to form 1alpha,25-dihydroxy-3-epi-vitamin-D(3). We performed the present study first to examine in detail the metabolism of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) in HL-60 cells and then to assess the ability of the various natural intermediary metabolites of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) in inducing differentiation and in inhibiting clonal growth of HL-60 cells. We incubated HL-60 cells with [1beta-(3)H] 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) and demonstrated that these cells metabolize 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) mainly via the C-24 oxidation pathway and to a lesser extent via the C-23 oxidation pathway, but not via the C-3-epimerization pathway. Three of the natural intermediary metabolites of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) derived via the C-24 oxidation pathway namely, 1alpha,24(R),25-trihydroxyvitamin D(3), 1alpha,25-dihydroxy-24-oxovitamin D(3) and 1alpha,23(S),25-trihydroxy-24-oxovitamin D(3) [1alpha,23(S),25(OH)(3)-24-oxo-D(3)] were almost as potent as 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) in terms of their ability to differentiate HL-60 cells into monocytes/macrophages. We then selected 1alpha,23(S),25(OH)(3)-24-oxo-D(3) which has the least calcemic activity among all the three aforementioned natural intermediary metabolites of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) to examine further its effects on these cells. Our results indicated that 1alpha,23(S),25(OH)(3)-24-oxo-D(3) was also equipotent to its parent in inhibiting clonal growth of HL-60 cells and in inducing expression of CD11b protein. In summary, we report that 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) is metabolized in HL-60 cells into several intermediary metabolites derived via both the C-24 and C-23 oxidation pathways but not via the C-3 epimerization pathway. Some of the intermediary metabolites derived via the C-24 oxidation pathway are found to be almost equipotent to 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) in modulating growth and differentiation of HL-60 cells. In a previous study, the same metabolites when compared to 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) were found to be less calcemic. Thus, the findings of our study suggest that some of the natural metabolites of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) may be responsible for the final expression of the noncalcemic actions that are presently being attributed to their parent, 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3).

Abstract
The structural specificity of vitamin D derivatization by PTAD (4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione) was probed using synthetic analogues and ion trap mass spectrometry. EB 1089, a vitamin D(3) analogue which contains a second site for Diels--Alder cycloaddition on its side-chain, allowed the examination of derivatization modes and comparisons of ion fragment structures. The origins of a PTAD-vitamin D(3) ion fragment, commonly used in metabolite characterization and quantitation of vitamin D(3) analogues (m/z 314), were established; ion trap mass spectrometry revealed that the PTAD comprises a portion of this diagnostic fragment, and is not lost by a retro-Diels--Alder step. Furthermore, the unique structure of the EB 1089 side-chain also permits facile determination of its side-chain metabolism. Use of PTAD derivatization and detection of metabolite-specific ion fragments identify hydroxylation at the end of the EB 1089 sidechain. It is believed that the results from these studies provide a clearer understanding of the mass spectrometry of triazolinedione derivatives, not only in the specific case of EB 1089, but also in their application to other vitamin D compounds.

To clarify the possibility that the metabolism of 26,27-hexafluoro-1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [F6-1,25(OH)2D3] to 26,27-hexafluoro-1 alpha,23(S),25-trihydroxyvitamin D3 [F6-1,23,25(OH)3D3 and that of F6-1,23,25(OH)3D3 to 26,27-hexafluoro-23-oxo-1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [F6-23-oxo-1,25(OH)2D3] are catalysed by 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 24-hydroxylase (CYP24), ROS17/2.8 cells transfected with a plasmid expressing CYP24 [pSVL-CYP24(+)] and a corresponding blank plasmid [pSLV-CYP24R(-)] were used. 2. Incubation of [1 beta-3H]-F6-1,25(OH)2D3 for 2 and 5 days with ROS17/2.8 cells transfected with pSVL-CYP24(+) generated a metabolite that co-migrated with authentic F6-1,23,25(OH)3D3 in both normal phase and reversed-phase HPLC systems. 3. Incubation of [1 beta-3H]-F6-1,23,25(OH)3D3 for 5 days with pSVL-CYP24(+)- transfected ROS 17/2.8 cells generated a metabolite that co-migrated with authentic F6-23-oxo-1,25(OH)2D3. In contrast, the metabolites F6-1,23,25(OH)3D3 or F6-23-oxo-1,25(OH)2D3 were not generated in the cells transfected with pSVL-CYP24R(-). 4. The results indicate that CYP24 catalyses the conversion of F6-1,25(OH)2D3 to F6-1,23,25(OH)3D3 and that of F6-1,23,25(OH)3D3 to F6-23-oxo-1,25(OH)2D3.

Abstract
The activated vitamin D3 derivative 26,27-F6-1alpha,25(OH)2D3 (2a), its three A-ring diastereomers (2b, 2c, 2d), and 5,6-trans isomer (2e) were prepared. Two analogues (2b, 2c) of these isomers were synthesized by a palladium catalyzed coupling reaction using vinyl bromide 5 and enynes (6a, 6b), which were derived from readily commercially available 2S-(+)-glycidyl p-toluenesulfonate 7, as a common starting material. Competitive vitamin D receptor (VDR) binding affinities of these diastereomers of 2a were evaluated. Interestingly, the stereochemical effects at C-1,3 of 2a were considerably more moderate than those of 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 (1). In particular, isomerization at the 5,6-double bond of 2a only slightly reduced VDR affinity, whereas 5,6-trans-1alpha,25(OH)2D3 had a significantly lower binding affinity than 1.

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
26,26,26,27,27,27-Hexafluo-1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3, the hexafluorinated analog of 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3, has been reported to be several times more potent than the parent compound regarding some vitamin D actions. The reason for enhanced biologic activity in the kidneys and small intestine appears to be related to F6-1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 metabolism to ST-232, 26,26,26,27,27,27-hexafluoro-1 alpha, 23S,25-trihydroxyvitamin D3, a bioactive 23S-hydroxylated form that is resistant to further metabolism. Since F6-1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 is considered to prevent osteoporotic decrease in bone mass by suppressing bone turnover, we here compared the distribution and metabolism of [1 beta-3H]F6-1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 and [1 beta-3H]1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 in bones of rats by autoradiography and radio-HPLC. In the dosed groups, radioactivity was detected locally in the metaphysis, the modeling site in bones. As compared with the [1 beta-3H]1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 case, [1 beta-3H]F6-1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 was significantly retained in this site, and moreover, it mainly persisted as unchanged compound and ST-232. These findings indicate that the reason for the higher potency of F6-1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 than 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 in bones are linked with increased distribution and reduced metabolism.
