X-Linked hypophosphatemic (HYP) mice respond to low phosphate (Pi) intake with a fall in the serum concentration of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2D3] and an increase in the renal activity of 1,25-(OH)2D3-24-hydroxylase (24-hydroxylase), the first enzyme in the C-24 oxidation pathway that degrades 1,25-(OH)2D3 to its final inactivation product. In contrast, normal mice respond to a low Pi diet with an adaptive increase in serum 1,25-(OH)2D3 levels and no change in renal 24-hydroxylase. The low Pi response in Hyp mice involves a 3-fold increase in renal 24-hydroxylase maximum velocity and a corresponding increase in 24-hydroxylase immunoreactive protein and messenger RNA (mRNA). To determine the mechanism for the increase in 24-hydroxylase mRNA in the mutant strain, we examined the effect of actinomycin D on renal 24-hydroxylase mRNA abundance and measured renal 24-hydroxylase gene transcription by nuclear run-off assay in Hyp mice fed control and low Pi diets for 4 h. Vehicle and 1,25-(OH)2D3-treated normal mice were also studied 2-4 h post-treatment. Actinomycin D abrogated the increase in renal 24-hydroxylase mRNA elicited by a low Pi diet in Hyp mice and by 1,25-(OH)2D3 in both normal and Hyp mice. 24-Hydroxylase gene transcription, relative to that of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, was increased 2-fold by feeding the low Pi diet to Hyp mice (n = 4; P < 0.05) and 5.4-fold by 1,25-(OH)2D3 administration to normal mice (n = 3; P < 0.01). In situ hybridization localized 24-hydroxylase transcripts to the proximal tubule of normal and mutant mice fed control and low Pi diets and showed that the 1,25(OH)2D3-induced increase in 24-hydroxylase mRNA occurred in the same nephron segment. The present study demonstrates that 1) transcriptional activation can account for the increase in renal 24-hydroxylase mRNA in Pi-deprived Hyp mice and for 24-hydroxylase mRNA induction by 1,25-(OH)2D3; and 2) the renal proximal tubule is the primary site of increased expression of 24-hydroxylase mRNA.

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
D002467 Cell Nucleus Within a eukaryotic cell, a membrane-limited body which contains chromosomes and one or more nucleoli (CELL NUCLEOLUS). The nuclear membrane consists of a double unit-type membrane which is perforated by a number of pores; the outermost membrane is continuous with the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. A cell may contain more than one nucleus. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed) Cell Nuclei,Nuclei, Cell,Nucleus, Cell
D003577 Cytochrome P-450 Enzyme System A superfamily of hundreds of closely related HEMEPROTEINS found throughout the phylogenetic spectrum, from animals, plants, fungi, to bacteria. They include numerous complex monooxygenases (MIXED FUNCTION OXYGENASES). In animals, these P-450 enzymes serve two major functions: (1) biosynthesis of steroids, fatty acids, and bile acids; (2) metabolism of endogenous and a wide variety of exogenous substrates, such as toxins and drugs (BIOTRANSFORMATION). They are classified, according to their sequence similarities rather than functions, into CYP gene families (>40% homology) and subfamilies (>59% homology). For example, enzymes from the CYP1, CYP2, and CYP3 gene families are responsible for most drug metabolism.

D003609 Dactinomycin A compound composed of a two CYCLIC PEPTIDES attached to a phenoxazine that is derived from STREPTOMYCES parvullus. It binds to DNA and inhibits RNA synthesis (transcription), with chain elongation more sensitive than initiation, termination, or release. As a result of impaired mRNA production, protein synthesis also declines after dactinomycin therapy.
