Simultaneous determination of vitamin D metabolites 25(OH)D3 and 1α,25(OH)2D3 in human plasma using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry [PDF]
Background: Although measurement of 25(OH)D3 is a routine analytical method to determine plasma vitamin D status, 1α,25(OH)2D3 is the biologically active form. Hence, simultaneous measurement of 25(OH)D3 and 1α,25(OH)2D3 could provide better insight into

Knockdown of CYP24A1 Aggravates 1α,25(OH)2D3-Inhibited Migration and Invasion of Mouse Ovarian Epithelial Cells by Suppressing EMT [PDF]
Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) bestows cancer cells with motile and invasive properties. But for ovarian tissues, EMT plays a physiological role in the postovulatory repair of ovary surface epithelial (OSE) cells.

1α,25(OH)2D3 reverses exhaustion and enhances antitumor immunity of human cytotoxic T cells [PDF]
Background Epidemiological surveys have revealed that low serum vitamin D level was correlated with increased risk of tumors. Dysfunctional T cells in patients with tumor are characterized as exhausted with high levels of immune checkpoint receptors ...

Down-regulation of COX-2 activity by 1α,25(OH)2D3 is VDR dependent in endothelial cells transformed by Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus G protein-coupled receptor [PDF]
Our previous reports showed that 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1α,25(OH)2D3) has antiproliferative actions in endothelial cells stably expressing viral G protein-coupled receptor (vGPCR) associated with the pathogenesis of Kaposi's sarcoma.

Gene expression profiles in human and mouse primary cells provide new insights into the differential actions of vitamin D3 metabolites. [PDF]
1α,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1α,25(OH)2D3) had earlier been regarded as the only active hormone. The newly identified actions of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D3) and 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (24R,25(OH)2D3) broadened the vitamin D3 endocrine system ...

24R,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 Protects against Articular Cartilage Damage following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Transection in Male Rats. [PDF]
Osteoarthritis (OA) in humans is associated with low circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3]. In vitamin D replete rats, radiolabeled 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24R,25(OH)2D3] accumulates in articular cartilage following injection of [3H]-25(OH)D3 ...
