We investigated the effects of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-3 [1,25(OH)(2)D-3] on paracellular intestinal Ca2+ absorption by determination of transepithelial electric resistance (TEER), as a measure of tight-junction ion permeability and bidirectional transepithelial Ca-45(2+) fluxes in confluent Caco-2 cell cultures. The rise of TEER to steady-state levels of similar to 2,000 Omega.cm(2) was significantly attenuated by 1,25(OH)(2)D-3 (by up to 50%) in a dose-dependent fashion between 10(-11) and 10(-8) M. Synthetic analogs of 1,25(OH)(2)D-3, namely, 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy-16-ene,23-yne-vitamin D-3 and 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy-26,27-hexafluoro-16-ene,23-yne-vitamin D-3, exhibited similar biopotency, whereas their genomically inactive l-deoxy congeners were only marginally effective. Enhancement of transepithelial conductance of Caco-2 cell monolayers by vitamin D was accompanied by a significant increase in bidirectional transepithelial Ca-45(2+) fluxes. Although 1,25(OH)(2)D-3 also induced cellular Ca-45(2+) uptake from the apical aspect of Caco-2 cell layers and upregulated the expression of calbindin-9kDa mRNA, no significant contribution of the Ca2+-adenosinetri-phosphatase-mediated transcellular pathway to transepithelial Ca2+ transport could be detected. Therefore stimulation of Ca2+ fluxes across confluent Caco-2 cells very likely results from a genomic effect of vitamin D sterols on assembly and permeability of tight-junctional complexes.
