Extrarenal 25-hydroxyvitamin D-3-1 alpha-hydroxylase is believed to play a major role in the pathogenesis of hypercalcemia associated with various types of granulomatous and lymphoproliferative diseases and certain solid tumors. In this paper, we describe the cloning of the cytochrome P450 component of the extrarenal enzyme from a human nonsmall cell lung carcinoma, SW 900. The cytochrome P450 for the extrarenal la-hydroxylase has an amino acid sequence identical to that of the cytochrome P450 component of the CYP1 alpha, the renal form of the enzyme, and appears to be a product of the same gene. CYP1 alpha: messenger RNA (mRNA) and Icr-hydroxylase enzyme activity were detected in two (SW 900, SK-Luci-6) of a series of five nonsmall cell lung carcinoma cell lines. All five lung cell lines were cultured with the same medium under the same conditions, but only two of the five expressed la-hydroxylase enzyme; two others (WT-E, Calu-1) expressed high levels of the reciprocally regulated enzyme, 25-hydroxyvitamin D-3-24-hydroxylase, with its specific cytochrome P450 component, CYP24. Although under basal conditions the lung cell line SW 900 expressed only CYP1 alpha and showed Icr-hydroxylase enzyme activity, when treated with small concentrations of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-3 or high concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D-3, it began to express CYP24 and exhibit 24-hydroxylase enzyme activity. Somewhat surprisingly, SW 900 cells still had detectable CYP1 alpha mRNA some 24 h after vitamin D treatment despite the fact that 1 alpha-hydroxylase enzyme activity was unmeasurable. These data are consistent with the emerging hypothesis that vitamin D through its active form does not directly turn off CYP1 alpha mRNA production but, rather, strongly stimulates CYP24, thereby masking CYP1 alpha activity. The factor(s) responsible for the basal expression of CYP1 alpha in SW 900 and SK-Luci-6 is currently unknown.
