DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): A classical function of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) is to maintain calcium homeostasis in vertebrate organisms. This activity is achieved through direct actions on intestine, kidney and bone, and feedback regulated at the parathyroid gland. 1,25(OH)2D3 also exerts additional biologic actions on a wide range of tissue types, primarily as a regulator of cell growth and differentiation. These highly pleiotropic actions suggest that 1,25(OH)2D3 or synthetic derivatives thereof may be useful therapeutically for such indications as cancer, and autoimmune and skin diseases. This utility is plagued, however, by the propensity for 1,25(OH)2D3 to hyper-induce intestinal calcium absorption, renal calcium reabsorption and bone calcium resorption. Recently, however, our understanding of these biologic processes has increased substantially, due largely to the discovery of key target genes whose products play central roles in orchestrating the homeostatic events. As a consequence, three specific aims are proposed. Aim 1: To determine the molecular mechanisms that underlie the regulation by 1,25(OH)2D3 of genes that are central to the calcium homeostatic actions of intestine, kidney and bone in vivo. We will use novel molecular techniques to characterize 1,25(OH)2D3`s ability to promote VDR/RXR DNA binding, coactivator interaction, chromatin modification, RNA pol II recruitment, and induction of renal TRPV5, intestinal TRPV6, and skeletal RankL gene activity in a mouse model in vivo. Aim 2: To evaluate the role of intracellular, vitamin D-inactivating metabolism on 1,25(OH)2D3 activity in the three primary organs. We plan to explore the consequence of Cyp24a1 inactivation on 1,25(OH)2D3`s ability to trigger TRPV5, TRPV6 and RankL activation using the Cyp24a1 null mouse. Aim 3: To assess the underlying mechanisms responsible for the increased biological potency and/or altered selectivity manifested by classic vitamin D analogues in vivo. We plan to characterize in vivo the mechanisms responsible for the increased potency, efficacy and selectivity for three well recognized vitamin D analogues. The research proposed herein will provide novel insight into the underlying mechanisms responsible for the calcemic activity of 1,25(OH)2D3 in vivo, define the impact of ligand pharmacodynamics on these activities and identify mechanisms whereby vitamin D analogues exert unique blends of biologic potency, efficacy and selectivity. These concepts will enable more rationale approaches to the design and synthesis of therapeutically relevant vitamin D analogues.

描述(申请人提供)：1，25-二羟基维生素D3(1，25(OH)2D3)的经典功能是维持脊椎动物体内的钙稳态。这种活动是通过对肠、肾和骨骼的直接作用以及甲状旁腺的反馈调节来实现的。1，25(OH)2D3还在多种组织类型上发挥额外的生物作用，主要作为细胞生长和分化的调节因子。这些高度的多效性表明，1，25(OH)2D3或其合成衍生物可能对癌症、自身免疫性疾病和皮肤病等适应症有治疗作用。然而，1，25(OH)2D3有过度诱导肠道钙吸收、肾钙重吸收和骨钙吸收的倾向，这一用途受到了困扰。然而，最近，我们对这些生物过程的理解有了很大的提高，这主要是由于发现了关键的靶基因，其产物在协调体内平衡事件中发挥了核心作用。因此，提出了三个具体目标。目的1：探讨1，25(OH)2D3调节体内肠、肾、骨钙稳态作用基因的分子机制。我们将使用新的分子技术在小鼠体内模型中表征1，25(OH)2D3促进VDR/RXR DNA结合、共激活子相互作用、染色质修饰、RNA PolII募集以及诱导肾脏TRPV5、肠道TRPV6和骨骼RANKL基因活性的能力。目的：探讨细胞内维生素D失活代谢对3个主要器官1，25(OH)2D3活性的影响。我们计划使用CYP24A1缺失的小鼠来探索CYP24A1失活对1，25(OH)2D3触发TRPV5、TRPV6和RANKL激活的能力的影响。目的3：评估经典维生素D类似物在体内表现出的增强生物效力和/或改变选择性的潜在机制。我们计划在体内表征三种公认的维生素D类似物提高效力、有效性和选择性的机制。本文提出的研究将为1，25(OH)2D3体内降钙活性的潜在机制提供新的见解，确定配体药效学对这些活性的影响，并确定维生素D类似物发挥独特的生物效力、有效性和选择性的机制。这些概念将使设计和合成具有治疗意义的维生素D类似物的方法更加合理。
