Growth of 3T3-L1 cells was inhibited by 10(-10)-10(-7)M of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 [1 alpha,25(OH)2D3] in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The potency of 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 in inducing differentiation was low, since 3T3-L1 cells cultured with 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 did not become mature adipocyte-like cells but were changed to slightly rounded cells containing small droplet-like substances in the cytoplasm and glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (sn-glycerol-3-phosphate: NAD+2-oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.8), the marker enzyme of differentiation to adipocyte, did not increase. These results together with the natural occurrence of this vitamin indicate that 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 may play an important role in the cell growth and differentiation besides such known action as intestinal calcium transport and bone mineral mobilization.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D002117 Calcitriol The physiologically active form of vitamin D. It is formed primarily in the kidney by enzymatic hydroxylation of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (CALCIFEDIOL). Its production is stimulated by low blood calcium levels and parathyroid hormone. Calcitriol increases intestinal absorption of calcium and phosphorus, and in concert with parathyroid hormone increases bone resorption. 1 alpha,25-Dihydroxycholecalciferol,1 alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3,1, 25-(OH)2D3,1,25(OH)2D3,1,25-Dihydroxycholecalciferol,1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3,1 alpha, 25-dihydroxy-20-epi-Vitamin D3,1,25(OH)2-20epi-D3,1,25-dihydroxy-20-epi-Vitamin D3,20-epi-1alpha,25-dihydroxycholecaliferol,Bocatriol,Calcijex,Calcitriol KyraMed,Calcitriol-Nefro,Decostriol,MC-1288,MC1288,Osteotriol,Renatriol,Rocaltrol,Silkis,Sitriol,Soltriol,Tirocal,1 alpha,25 Dihydroxyvitamin D3,1,25 Dihydroxycholecalciferol,1,25 Dihydroxyvitamin D3,1,25 dihydroxy 20 epi Vitamin D3,Calcitriol Nefro,D3, 1 alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin,D3, 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin,D3, 1,25-dihydroxy-20-epi-Vitamin,KyraMed, Calcitriol,MC 1288
