The active vitamin D metabolite 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] causes marked suppression of both pre-proparathyroid hormone messenger RNA (pre-proPTH mRNA) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion. These effects are dose dependent and reversible when tested in an in vitro primary tissue culture cell system using normal bovine parathyroid cells. In the current studies, the precursors of 1,25(OH)2D3 and the related metabolite 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24,25(OH)2D3], were used in the same culture system to test for possible regulatory effects. The results were compared with identically prepared cells exposed to 1,25(OH)2D3. In short-term studies (30-120 minutes), none of the vitamin D-related compounds produced any effect on PTH secretion. In long-term studies (24-48 hours, using primary tissue culture in the presence of test agents), neither vitamin D3 nor 25(OH)D3 affected PTH secretion or pre-proPTH mRNA over the concentration range 10(-11)-10(-7) M. On the other hand, 24,25(OH)2D3 produced significant suppression of both pre-proPTH mRNA (77% of control, P less than .01) and PTH secretion (75% of control, P less than .005) at 10(-7) M. By comparison, 10(-11) M 1,25(OH)2D3 produced levels of suppression (25-30%) of both pre-proPTH mRNA and PTH secretion comparable to 10(-7) M 24,25(OH)2D3, while even greater suppression (40-50%) occurred at 10(-9)-10(-7) M 1,25(OH)2D3. From these studies, we conclude that vitamin D3 and 25(OH)D3 do not have significant effects on PTH synthesis and secretion over the range of doses tested.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D010280	Parathyroid Glands	Two pairs of small oval-shaped glands located in the front and the base of the NECK and adjacent to the two lobes of THYROID GLAND. They secrete PARATHYROID HORMONE that regulates the balance of CALCIUM; PHOSPHORUS; and MAGNESIUM in the body.	Gland, Parathyroid,Glands, Parathyroid,Parathyroid Gland
D010281	Parathyroid Hormone	A polypeptide hormone (84 amino acid residues) secreted by the PARATHYROID GLANDS which performs the essential role of maintaining intracellular CALCIUM levels in the body. Parathyroid hormone increases intracellular calcium by promoting the release of CALCIUM from BONE, increases the intestinal absorption of calcium, increases the renal tubular reabsorption of calcium, and increases the renal excretion of phosphates.

D002112	Calcifediol	The major circulating metabolite of VITAMIN D3. It is produced in the LIVER and is the best indicator of the body's vitamin D stores. It is effective in the treatment of RICKETS and OSTEOMALACIA, both in azotemic and non-azotemic patients. Calcifediol also has mineralizing properties.	25-Hydroxycholecalciferol,25-Hydroxyvitamin D 3,25-Hydroxycholecalciferol Monohydrate,25-Hydroxyvitamin D3,Calcidiol,Calcifediol Anhydrous,Calcifediol, (3 alpha,5Z,7E)-Isomer,Calcifediol, (3 beta,5E,7E)-Isomer,Calderol,Dedrogyl,Hidroferol,25 Hydroxycholecalciferol,25 Hydroxycholecalciferol Monohydrate,25 Hydroxyvitamin D 3,25 Hydroxyvitamin D3,Anhydrous, Calcifediol,Monohydrate, 25-Hydroxycholecalciferol
D002118	Calcium	A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
