26,27-Dihomo-1 alpha-hydroxyvitamin D2, 26,27-dihomo-24-epi-1 alpha-hydroxyvitamin D2, and 26,27-dihomo-24-epi-1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2 have been synthesized. In contrast to 1 alpha-hydroxyvitamin D2 and 24-epi-1 alpha-hydroxyvitamin D2, 26,27-dihomo-1 alpha-hydroxyvitamin D2 (1) and the 24-epi analog (2) have no activity in intestinal calcium transport, bone calcium mobilization, or skeleton mineralization. On the other hand, 26,27-dihomo-24-epi-1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2 is equal to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in biological activity. Vitamin D 25-hydroxylase readily converts 1 alpha-hydroxyvitamin D2 to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2. In contrast, the same preparations fail to hydroxylate 26,27-dihomo-1 alpha-hydroxyvitamin D2 and 26,27-dihomo-24-epi-1 alpha-hydroxyvitamin D2 on carbon 25. Thus, homologation of carbons 26 and 27 of the vitamin D compound likely sterically hinders vitamin D 25-hydroxylase.

D001842 Bone and Bones A specialized CONNECTIVE TISSUE that is the main constituent of the SKELETON. The principal cellular component of bone is comprised of OSTEOBLASTS; OSTEOCYTES; and OSTEOCLASTS, while FIBRILLAR COLLAGENS and hydroxyapatite crystals form the BONE MATRIX.

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.

D004872 Ergocalciferols Derivatives of ERGOSTEROL formed by ULTRAVIOLET RAYS breaking of the C9-C10 bond. They differ from CHOLECALCIFEROL in having a double bond between C22 and C23 and a methyl group at C24. Calciferols,Vitamin D 2,Ergocalciferol,Vitamin D2,D2, Vitamin
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D012279 Rickets Disorders caused by interruption of BONE MINERALIZATION manifesting as OSTEOMALACIA in adults and characteristic deformities in infancy and childhood due to disturbances in normal BONE FORMATION. The mineralization process may be interrupted by disruption of VITAMIN D; PHOSPHORUS; or CALCIUM homeostasis, resulting from dietary deficiencies, or acquired, or inherited metabolic, or hormonal disturbances.

D013329 Structure-Activity Relationship The relationship between the chemical structure of a compound and its biological or pharmacological activity. Compounds are often classed together because they have structural characteristics in common including shape, size, stereochemical arrangement, and distribution of functional groups.

D017136 Ion Transport The movement of ions across energy-transducing cell membranes. Transport can be active, passive or facilitated. Ions may travel by themselves (uniport), or as a group of two or more ions in the same (symport) or opposite (antiport) directions.
