Mechanism of decreased intestinal calcitriol receptor concentration in renal failure

American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 1993
The biological actions of calcitriol and its receptor synthesis are believed to be mediated through the calcitriol-receptor complex interacting with nuclear chromatin of target cells. Thus inhibition of the receptor interaction with DNA could diminish the biological actions of calcitriol and upregulation of its receptor.

Calcitriol modulates receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) in diabetic hearts

International Journal of Cardiology, 2014
Receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) signaling pathway plays a vital role in diabetic cardiovascular complications. Calcitriol has been shown to exert various beneficial cardiovascular effects. The purpose of this study is to determine whether calcitriol can modulate RAGE expression, and study the potential mechanisms in diabetic hearts ...

Appearance of the rat testicular receptor for calcitriol (1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3) during development

Journal of Steroid Biochemistry, 1985
In the present study we have examined the developmental changes in the concentration of receptors for calcitriol in high-salt cytosol from the rat testis. Receptors for calcitriol were undetectable (less than 0.4 fmol/mg protein) until day 24, after which there was a rapid increase to reach adult levels (6-8 fmol/mg protein) between day 50-60. The lack

Serum vitamin D metabolites and calcitriol receptor concentration in parathyroid tissue in primary hyperparathyroidism

Acta Endocrinologica, 1992
Vitamin D metabolites in serum and calcitriol receptor concentration in parathyroid tissue were examined in 52 patients operated on for primary hyperparathyroidism. The calcitriol receptor levels were not different in parathyroid adenomas (mean 224 fmol/mg of protein, range 29–509, N = 43), normal parathyroid tissue (mean 245, range 31–690, N = 20 ...

Effects of calcitriol upon TGF-βs and their receptors in trophoblast cells

Journal of Reproductive Immunology
Calcitriol levels increase during pregnancy, contributing to the hormonal and immunological balance, but its deficiency has been associated with problems during this period. Meanwhile, transforming growth factors-β (TGF-βs) play an important role in the maintenance of fetal-maternal immune tolerance; however, exacerbated concentrations of this growth ...

Immunolocalization of calcitriol receptor, 24-hydroxylase cytochrome P-450, and calbindin D28k in human kidney

American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 1994
The precise localization of the calcitriol (1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3) receptor (VDR) and the 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3] 24-hydroxylase cytochrome P-450 in the human kidney is unknown. Using newly developed polyclonal antibodies against the human VDR, we demonstrate that the receptor is present in cells of the distal tubule, the collecting ...

Cultured osteoblasts from normal and hypophosphatemic mice: Calcitriol receptors and biological response to the hormone

Bone, 1990
The content and affinity of calcitriol receptors were analyzed in cultured osteoblasts from normal and hypophosphatemic mice. Hypertonic cell extracts were prepared by sonication followed by centrifugation at 200,000 g x 30 min. Analysis, at saturating levels of labeled 1,25(OH)2D3, revealed that binding of the hormone was dependent on the density of ...

Calcitriol Prevents In Vitro Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Mineralization by Regulating Calcium-Sensing Receptor Expression

Endocrinology, 2015
Abstract Vascular calcification (VC) is a degenerative disease that contributes to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. A negative relationship has been demonstrated between VC and calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) expression in the vasculature.

Calcitriol decreases calcitonin secretion from a human medullary carcinoma cell line via specific receptor action

Acta Endocrinologica, 1991
Abstract. Since calcitonin stimulates calcitriol production we examined whether a feedback regulatory mechanism exists between these hormones. First, the calcitriol receptor was localized immunocytochemically in cultured TT cells originating from a human thyroid medullary (C-cell) carcinoma.

Studies of the Porcine Intestinal Calcitriol Receptor in Pseudo-Vitamin D Deficiency Rickets Type I

Clinical Science, 1990
1. Calcitriol (1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3) concentrations in plasma of humans and pigs with pseudo-vitamin D deficiency rickets type I (PVDRI) have been reported to be significantly lower than in normal subjects and animals. Sometimes, however, calcitriol concentrations are relatively high in these subjects and animals (50–80 pmol/l) and nevertheless ...
