Popis: In our previous study, we indicated for the first time that C-28 hydroxylation plays a significant role in the metabolism of 1alpha, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D(2) [1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(2)] by identifying 1alpha,24(S),25,28-tetrahydroxyvitamin D(2) [1alpha,24(S),25, 28(OH)(4)D(2)] as a major renal metabolite of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(2) [G. S. Reddy and K-Y. Tserng Biochemistry 25, 5328-5336, 1986]. The present study was performed to establish the physiological significance of C-28 hydroxylation in the metabolism of 1alpha, 25(OH)(2)D(2). We perfused rat kidneys in vitro with 1alpha, 25(OH)(2)[26,27-(3)H]D(2) (5 x 10(-10)M) and demonstrated that 1alpha,24(R),25-trihydroxyvitamin D(2) [1alpha,24(R),25(OH)(3)D(2)] and 1alpha,24(S),25,28(OH)(4)D(2) are the only two major physiological metabolites of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(2). In the same perfusion experiments, we also noted that there is no conversion of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(2) into 1alpha,25,28-trihydroxyvitamin D(2 )[1alpha,25,28(OH)(3)D(2)]. Moreover, 1alpha,24(S),25,28(OH)(4)D(2) is not formed in the perfused rat kidney when synthetic 1alpha,25, 28(OH)(3)D(2) is used as the starting substrate. This finding indicates that C-28 hydroxylation of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(2) occurs only after 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(2) is hydroxylated at C-24 position. At present the enzyme responsible for the C-28 hydroxylation of 1alpha, 24(R),25(OH)(3)D(2) in rat kidney is not known. Recently, it was found that 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)-24-hydroxylase (CYP24) can hydroxylate carbons 23, 24, and 26 of various vitamin D(3) compounds. Thus, it may be speculated that CYP24 may also be responsible for the C-28 hydroxylation of 1alpha,24(R),25(OH)(3)D(2) to form 1alpha, 24(S),25,28(OH)(4)D(2). The biological activity of 1alpha,24(S),25, 28(OH)(4)D(2), determined by its ability to induce intestinal calcium transport and bone calcium resorption in the rat, was found to be almost negligible. Also, 1alpha,24(S),25,28(OH)(4)D(2) exhibited very low binding affinity toward bovine thymus vitamin D receptor. These studies firmly establish that C-28 hydroxylation is an important enzymatic reaction involved in the inactivation of 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(2) in kidney under physiological conditions.
