The influence of the serum binding protein (DBP) for vitamin D and its metabolites on the concentration of its main ligands, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25-OHD3) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-(OH)2D3) was studied. The concentration of both 1,25-(OH)2D3 and DBP in normal female subjects (45 .+-. 14 ng/l and 333 .+-. 58 mg/l, mean .+-. SD, respectively; n = 58) increased during the intake of estro-progestogens (69 .+-. 27 ng/l and 488 .+-. 90 mg/l, respectively; n = 29), whereas the 25-OHD3 concentration remained unchanged. A positive correlation was found between the concentrations of 1,25-(OH)2D3 and DBP in these women. At the end of pregnancy, the total concentrations of 1,25-(OH)2D3 (97 .+-. 26 ng/l, n = 40) and DBP (616 .+-. 84 mg/l) are both significantly higher than in nonpregnant females and paired cord serum samples (48 .+-. 11 ng/l and 266 .+-. 41 mg/l, respectively). A marked seasonal variation of 25-OHD3 was observed in pregnant females and their infants, whereas in the same samples the concentrations of both DBP and 1,25-(OH)2D3 remained constant throughout the year. The free 1,25-(OH)2D3 index, calculated as the molar ratio of this steroid and DBP, remains normal in women taking estro-progestogens and this might explain their normal intestinal Ca absorption despite a high total 1,25-(OH)2D3 concentration. In pregnancy the free 1,25(OH)2D3 index remains normal up to 35 wk of gestation, but during the last weeks of gestation, the free 1,25-(OH)2D3 index increases in both circulations. A highly significant correlation exists between the (total and free) 25-OHD3 and 1,25-(OH)2D3 concentrations in maternal and cord serum both at 35 and 40 wk of gestation.
