Abstract
This study evaluated the effects of dietary canthaxanthin (CX) and 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (25-OH-D3) supplementation on the antioxidant status and tibia quality of duck breeders and newly hatched ducklings. In total, 780 female and 156 male duck breeders were randomly allotted to 2 treatments. Duck breeders were fed either a commercial diet (containing 3,000 IU/kg vitamin D3) or the same diet plus a mixture of CX (6 mg/kg) and 25-OH-D3 (0.069 mg/kg) for 40 wk. The antioxidant status of duck breeders, egg yolk, and ducklings; tibia quality of duck breeders and ducklings; and shell quality of breeder eggs were investigated. The total antioxidant capacity of breeder female liver (P = 0.028), breeder male testis (P = 0.049), egg yolk (P = 0.032), one-day-old duckling liver (P = 0.024), and one-day-old duckling yolk sac (P = 0.012) were increased by dietary supplementation of the mixture of CX and 25-OH-D3 The inclusion of CX and 25-OH-D3 decreased liver protein carbonyl of breeder females (P = 0.030), and liver malonaldehyde (P = 0.050) and protein carbonyl (P = 0.030) of breeder males. Yolk (P < 0.001), shank (P < 0.001), and yolk sac pigmentation (P < 0.001) of one-day-old ducklings were increased by the supplementation of the CX and 25-OH-D3 mixture. No differences (P > 0.05) were observed in tibia quality or eggshell quality between treatments. In conclusion, the inclusion of the mixture of CX and 25-OH-D3 in a diet sufficient in vitamin D3 increased antioxidant status but not tibia quality of duck breeders and newly hatched ducklings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several studies suggest that 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [24,25(OH)₂D] may have an effect on bone mass and metabolism. OBJECTIVE We evaluated the relationship between serum 24,25(OH)₂D levels and bone density and bone metabolism in children with a primary bone disorder-osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 132 patients (age, 1.1 to 17.9 yr; 67 girls) with OI types I, III, or IV who had not received bisphosphonate treatment at the time of analysis. RESULTS Serum 24,25(OH)₂D levels were significantly higher in OI type III than in OI type I or IV. Serum 24,25(OH)₂D concentrations were positively correlated with serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) levels and negatively correlated with serum PTH levels, and were not correlated with serum 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)₂D]. The ratio between serum 24,25(OH)₂D and 25OHD was negatively correlated with age and was independent of serum 25OHD concentrations. Regression analysis revealed that OI severity (P = 0.04), serum 25OHD levels (P < 0.001), and serum PTH concentrations (P = 0.045), but not age, gender, or serum 1,25(OH)₂D, were independent predictors of serum 24,25(OH)₂D levels. No correlation was found between serum 24,25(OH)₂D levels or the ratio between serum 24,25(OH)₂D and 25OHD and lumbar spine bone mineral density z-scores or bone marker levels (serum osteocalcin and urinary collagen type I N-telopeptide) after adjusting for OI type, age, and gender. CONCLUSION Patients with more severe OI type had higher 24,25(OH)₂D serum levels and higher serum 24,25(OH)₂D to 25OHD ratios, suggesting an increased 25OHD-24-hydroxylase activity.

Abstract
We tested the hypothesis that 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24R,25-(OH)2D3] is an essential vitamin D metabolite for the development of normal bone integrity and the healing of fractures. The natural 24R,25-(OH)2D3 and its synthetic epimer 24S,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24S,25-(OH)2D3] were tested alone or in combination with 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1alpha,25-(OH)2D3], on normal bone development and other related variables of the Ca2+ homeostasis system [serum Ca2+, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25OHD3), 24,25-(OH)2D3, and 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3 levels] in chicks. Mechanical testing of torsional strength was carried out on the femur. 24R,25-(OH)2D3 (80 nmol/kg diet) alone was sufficient for normal bone growth and integrity similar to that achieved by the vitamin D3-replete controls. Next, chicks were fed a 25OHD3-replete diet (75 nmol/kg diet) for 8 days after hatching, and then 25OHD3 was withdrawn to minimize any residual circulating metabolites before the imposition of standardized tibial fractures 14 days later. Vitamin D metabolites were administered for 2 weeks to determine their effects on the mechanical properties of healed tibia. 24S,25-(OH)2D3 combined with 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3 or 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3 alone resulted in poor healing [strength values of 0.158 +/- 0.011 and 0.123 +/- 0.009 Nm (Newton x meter), respectively] compared with that in the 25OHD3-treated control group (0.374 +/- 0.029 Nm). In contrast, the fractured tibia of the birds fed 24R,25-(OH)2D3 in combination with 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3 showed healing equivalent to that in the control group, with strength values of 0.296 +/- 0.043 Nm. These results suggest that when 24R,25-(OH)2D3 is present at normal physiological concentrations, it is an essential vitamin D3 metabolite for both normal bone integrity and healing of fracture in chicks.

Abstract
Vitamin D is a complex of secosteroids that must undergo metabolic alterations to reach optimal biological activity. The parent compounds 1) ergocalciferol (D2) and 2) cholecalciferol (D3) can be synthesized in the leaves of many plants or in the skin of most animals, respectively. Transport of vitamin D steroids after absorption is associated with vitamin D binding proteins (DBP). In general, the relative binding affinities of the vitamin D steroids are: 25-hydroxy vitamin D3 [25-(OH)D3] = 24,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 [24,25-(OH)2D3] = 25,26-dihydroxy vitamin D3 [25,26-(OH)2D3] > 25-hydroxy vitamin D2 (25-(OH)D2) > 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2D3] > vitamin D3. The DBP in poultry does not bind D2 forms effectively, and therefore poultry can not use this form of vitamin D adequately. The concentration of 25-(OH)D3 in blood seems to be well correlated with dietary vitamin D intake or exposure to ultraviolet light. The 1 alpha hydroxylase enzyme in the kidney is subject to negative feedback regulation and is critical for formation of the active metabolite 1,25-(OH)2D3. The intracellular vitamin D receptor (VDR) specifically binds 1,25-(OH)2D3 and is necessary for cellular action. Increased levels of two to three orders of magnitude are required for 25-(OH)D3 to compete with 1,25-(OH)2D3 for binding on VDR. Feeding studies with 25-(OH)D3 suggest it has nearly twice the activity of vitamin D3. Hatchability studies have shown that 25-(OH)D3 supports good fertility and hatchability, whereas hens fed only 1,25-(OH)2D3 did not have normal hatchability. Likewise, 1,25-(OH)2D3 seems to reach toxic levels at dietary concentrations only two to three times optimal dietary levels whereas feeding 25-(OH)D3 for extended periods at levels 8 to 10 times requirement seems to have no adverse effects. It seems that 25-(OH)D3 is the most active metabolite of vitamin D3, ultimately capable of supporting both cellular functions and embryonic development in chickens and turkeys when fed as the sole source of vitamin D3.

Abstract
The optimal dietary level of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol [1,25-(OH)2D3] for eggshell quality was established. White Leghorn hens, 59 wk of age, were fed one of eight diets that contained the same basal ingredients, including 3.1% calcium, but different levels (microgram/kg) or forms of calciferol supplements: no calciferol supplement of any form (56 hens); 27.5 (control) or 55.0 micrograms of cholecalciferol (56 hens each); 3, 5, or 7 micrograms of 1,25-(OH)2D3 (28 hens each); 5 micrograms of 24,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol [24,25-(OH)2D3] with 28 hens; 5 micrograms each of 1,25-(OH)2D3 and 24,25-(OH)2D3 (28 hens). All groups were fed the control diet prior to the 21-wk treatment. The group fed 5 micrograms 1,25-(OH)2D3/kg diet ranked first in specific gravity (SG), e.g., 1.081 versus 1.077 for the control group at Week 21 (P less than .05). The group fed 7 micrograms 1,25-(OH)2D3/kg consumed 30% less feed and laid 20% fewer eggs than the control, but shell quality was not affected. The groups receiving no calciferol supplement or receiving only 24,25-(OH)2D3 laid eggs with significantly lower SG than the control after 2 wk of treatment (1.072 or less versus 1.082 at Week 2). The rest of the treatment groups mentioned were comparable to the control in eggshell quality and egg production. Groups fed the combination of 1,25-(OH)2D3 and 24,25-(OH)2D3 per kilogram of feed, or 1,25-(OH)2D3 alone at 5 micrograms/kg, had significantly higher tibial weights relative to the control group. All groups receiving the diets without cholecalciferol supplementation had markedly reduced hatchability. It was concluded that the optimal dietary level of 1,25-(OH)2D3 for improving eggshell quality without affecting egg production was approximately 5 micrograms/kg and the toxic level was 7 micrograms/kg.

Abstract
An experiment was conducted to determine the influence of adding 4 micrograms/kg of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] to the diet of 68-wk-old commercial egg production-type hens. The addition of the 1,25(OH)2D3 to the diet for 21 days resulted in significantly decreased egg production, egg weight, and feed consumption, and significantly increased plasma P, and bone-breaking load. Specific gravity of eggs, plasma Ca, tibia ash, and fertility and hatchability of eggs were not significantly affected by the addition of 1,25(OH)2D3 to the diet.

Abstract
White Leghorn hens, age 34 wk, fed 0 to 3 micrograms/kg of 1,25 dihydroxycholecalciferol (1,25(OH)2D3) as the only source of dietary vitamin D3 with 2.5 or 3.5% calcium failed to achieve normal embryonic survival and hatchability of their fertile eggs. Improved egg production was observed over a 24-wk period as the level of 1,25(OH)2D3 was increased. Eggs of hens fed the vitamin D-deficient diet showed significantly lower (P less than .01) egg weight and shell strength with a higher percent of soft shell eggs than those of hens fed 1,25(OH)2D3 or vitamin D3. To study the possibility that 1,25(OH)2D3 cannot be transferred into the egg yolk, yolks from the hens receiving varying levels of 1,25(OH)2D3 and vitamin D3 were fed to day-old chicks. A standard vitamin D3 assay was developed and bone ash was determined on fat-free tibial bone. Significantly lower (P less than .01) vitamin D activity per gram of yolk was observed in yolks from hens fed 0 to 3 micrograms of 1,25(OH)2D3 than in yolks of hens fed vitamin D3. These results demonstrate that insufficient 1,25(OH)2D3 is incorporated in the egg yolk to support normal embryonic survival and hatchability. This may be due to a decrease in available receptor sites in the egg yolk or to the inability of 1,25(OH)2D3 to cross the vitelline membrane.

Abstract
Vitamin D-deficient chicken embryos were obtained by feeding laying hens a diet in which 5 micrograms 1,25(OH)2D3/kg feed were substituted for the vitamin D3 supplement in the control diet. Hatchability, total Ca and inorganic P concentration in blood, and tibial ash/dry weight ratio were determined in the vitamin D-deficient embryos and in embryos obtained from hens fed the control diet supplemented with 1100 IU vitamin D3/kg feed. After 5 weeks on the substituted diet the hens laid eggs that showed decreased hatchability in spite of excellent shell quality. All determinations in blood and bones were made on embryos of eggs laid after 6-12 weeks on the diets. On the 17th day of incubation the embryos derived from hens fed the substituted diet showed significant hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia and a low tibial ash/dry weight ratio. Injection of 1,25(OH)2D3 3 days before killing corrected the hypocalcemia of the deficient embryos. Those chicks that managed to hatch had normal levels of calcium and inorganic phosphate 1 day after hatching. These findings support previous suggestions by us and other authors that vitamin D metabolites are required by the embryo in order to mobilize calcium from the shell, and decreased hatchability in vitamin D-deficient embryos is related to a defect in calcium mobilization from the shell. While in previous studies a decrease in hatchability was the only parameter used to judge D deficiency of the embryos in our present studies, the deficiency is confirmed by demonstrating a deficit in mineral metabolism which is a more specific sign of D deficiency.

Abstract
Vitamin D-deficient laying hens were repleted with 25-hydroxy[26,27-3H]vitamin D3 or 1,25-dihydroxy[26,27-3H]vitamin D3. Egg production returned to normal for both groups of hens by the third week. Eggs from hens fed either 25-hydroxy[26,27-3H]vitamin D3 or 1,25-dihydroxy[26,27-3H]vitamin D3 contained 1,25-dihydroxy[26,27-3H]vitamin D3. Eggs from hens fed 25-hydroxy[26,27-3H]vitamin D3 contained substantial amounts of 25-hydroxy[26,27-3H]vitamin D3, while those from hens fed 1,25-dihydroxy[26,27-3H]vitamin D3 contained none. Plasma from 18-day embryos from hens fed 1,25-dihydroxy[26,27-3H]vitamin D3 contained little or no 1,25-dihydroxy[26,27-3H]vitamin D3, while that from 18-day embryos from hens given 25-hydroxy[26,27-3H]vitamin D3 had normal levels of 1,25-dihydroxy[26,27-3H]vitamin D3. No eggs from hens fed 1,25-dihydroxy[26,27-3H]vitamin D3 hatched, while eggs from hens fed 25-hydroxy[26,27-3H]vitamin D3 achieved a hatchability of 90%. It appears that embryos from hens maintained on 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 as their sole source of vitamin D are essentially vitamin D deficient.

Abstract
Vitamin D functions by stimulating intestinal calcium and phosphorus absorption, by stimulating bone calcium mobilization, and by increasing renal reabsorption of calcium in the distal tubule. These functions on bone and possibly kidney, but not intestine, require the parathyroid hormone. As a result of these functions, serum calcium and phosphorus concentrations are elevated to supersaturating levels required for the mineralization of bone to prevent rickets, osteomalacia, and hypocalcemic tetany. Recent experiments demonstrate that maintaining serum calcium and phosphorus levels in vitamin D-deficient rats in the normal range results in normal bone growth and mineralization. However, increased calcification results because bone resorption by osteoclasts is a vitamin D-dependent process. Thus, bone resorption, modeling and remodeling must be considered vitamin D-dependent processes. Vitamin D must be metabolized to 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 by the liver and subsequently by the kidney to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 before function. 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 is metabolized to a C-23 carboxylic acid (calcitroic acid) but the pathway is unknown. Although 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 is metabolized to 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, 25,26-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone, these pathways play no role in the function of vitamin D as shown by appropriate fluoro analogs of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3. 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 binds to a specific receptor in the intestinal nuclei to elicit a stimulation of calcium transport. 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 plus the receptor causes transcription of specific genes that code for calcium and phosphorus transport proteins. Only one protein, the calcium binding protein, has been identified as being vitamin D dependent. Two others have been described, but no clear description of the molecular mechanism of action of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 is yet available.

Abstract
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.

Abstract
The role of 24,25(OH)2D3 in calcium homeostasis is still controversial. In the present study the administration of low doses of 1,25(OH)2D3 and of higher doses of 24,25(OH)2D3 either alone or in conjunction with each other, were studied in rachitic chicks and in Japanese quails. Whereas 24,25(OH)2D3 alone had no significant effect on duodenal CaBP and on alkaline phosphatase in chick serum, it increased the influence of 1,25(OH)2D3 on these two parameters strongly. Also, when 1,25(OH)2D3 and 24,25(OH)2D3 were given simultaneously to Japanese quails, calcium excretion via the egg shell was clearly higher than when either metabolite had been administered alone. These results indicate that 1,25(OH)2D3 and 24,25(OH)2D3 exert a strong synergistic effect in rachitic animals.

Abstract
The provision of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 as the only source of dietary vitamin D3 to laying hens failed to support normal embryonic development in their fertile eggs. Significant (P less than .001) improvement in embryonic survival to hatching in these eggs resulted from injections of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, or 24,24-difluoro-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 prior to incubation. Maximum embryonic survival with lowest embryonic mortality was observed when 0.20 micrograms/egg of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 or 0.60 micrograms/egg 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 was injected. These results indicate that several forms of vitamin D, two of which cannot be converted to 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, can provide this activity; and of the vitamin D compounds tested, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 may be the most active in supporting embryonic survival in the chick when delivered directly by injection.

Abstract
Kidney homogenates of rats produced a new metabolite of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 which has been isolated in pure form after five column chromatographic steps. It was identified as 23,25-dihydroxy-24-oxovitamin D3 by means of ultraviolet and infrared absorption spectrophotometry, mass spectrometry, and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry. The stereochemistry at the C-23 position is as yet unknown. 25-Hydroxy-24-oxovitamin D3, which also has been isolated in pure form from this system, was found to be the precursor of the new metabolite in vitro. The production of the new metabolite was induced by two different methods: (a) perfusion of the kidneys with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 contained in the perfusate and (b) injection of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in the intact animal. 23,25-Dihydroxy-24-oxovitamin D3 was not biologically active in an assay for intestinal calcium transport and bone calcium mobilization in the vitamin D deficient chick at a dose level of 5.3 nmol. A metabolic pathway is proposed to describe the results; it leads from 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 leads to 24(R),25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 leads to 25-hydroxy-24-oxovitamin D3 leads to 23,25-dihydroxy-24-oxovitamin D3.
