26,26,26,27,27,27-Hexafluo-1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3, the hexafluorinated analog of 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3, has been reported to be several times more potent than the parent compound regarding some vitamin D actions. The reason for enhanced biologic activity in the kidneys and small intestine appears to be related to F6-1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 metabolism to ST-232, 26,26,26,27,27,27-hexafluoro-1 alpha, 23S,25-trihydroxyvitamin D3, a bioactive 23S-hydroxylated form that is resistant to further metabolism. Since F6-1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 is considered to prevent osteoporotic decrease in bone mass by suppressing bone turnover, we here compared the distribution and metabolism of [1 beta-3H]F6-1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 and [1 beta-3H]1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 in bones of rats by autoradiography and radio-HPLC. In the dosed groups, radioactivity was detected locally in the metaphysis, the modeling site in bones. As compared with the [1 beta-3H]1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 case, [1 beta-3H]F6-1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 was significantly retained in this site, and moreover, it mainly persisted as unchanged compound and ST-232. These findings indicate that the reason for the higher potency of F6-1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 than 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 in bones are linked with increased distribution and reduced metabolism.

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
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.

D014018 Tissue Distribution Accumulation of a drug or chemical substance in various organs (including those not relevant to its pharmacologic or therapeutic action). This distribution depends on the blood flow or perfusion rate of the organ, the ability of the drug to penetrate organ membranes, tissue specificity, protein binding. The distribution is usually expressed as tissue to plasma ratios. Distribution, Tissue,Distributions, Tissue,Tissue Distributions
