Induction of Calcium-Binding Protein in Embryonic Chick Duodenum In Vitro: Direct Assessment of Biopotency of Vitamin D-Steroids

  • Chapter
Vitamin D

Abstract

Among several physiologic activities, vitamin D controls the efficiency of intestinal calcium absorption as part of a complex mechanism for maintenance of calcium homeostasis (1). The single most-potent, naturally-occurring vitamin D metabolite (generally considered to be the biologically active form) is 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3). At the molecular level, l,25(OH)2D3 acts similarly to other hormonal steroids (2), in this case with de novo induction of a single new mRNA species coding for a calcium-binding protein (CaBP) in the intestine of vitamin D-deficient rachitic chicks (3,4). CaBP involvement in intestinal calcium absorption in intact chickens is supported by extensive correlative evidence (5).
