1α,25-(OH)2-D3 promotes osteoclast-precursor autophagy and osteoclast differentiation by promoting BECN1 transcription [PDF]
1α,25-(OH)2-D3 can promote autophagy of osteoclast precursors (OCPs), resulting in its pro-osteoclastogenic effect, which limits its anti-osteoporotic efficacy. To address the above challenges, we need to explore the targets of autophagy-enhancing effect

Optimal Dietary Levels of 1α-Hydroxycholecalciferol in Broiler Chickens from 1 to 42 Days of Age
1α-Hydroxycholecalciferol (1α-OH-D3) is an active vitamin D derivative. In this study, three experiments were conducted to evaluate the optimal dietary levels of 1α-OH-D3 in broiler chickens from 1 to 42 days of age.

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 ...

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
