25-Hydroxyvitamin D3 1alpha -Hydroxylase and Vitamin D Synthesis

Ken-ichi Takeyama, Sachiko Kitanaka, Takashi Sato, Masato Kobori, Junn Yanagisawa, Shigeaki Kato *

Renal 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 1alpha -hydroxylase [1alpha (OH)ase] catalyzes metabolic activation of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 into 1alpha ,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1alpha ,25(OH)2D3], an active form of vitamin D, and is inhibited by 1alpha ,25(OH)2D3. 1alpha (OH)ase, which was cloned from the kidney of mice lacking the vitamin D receptor (VDR-/- mice), is a member of the P450 family of enzymes (P450VD1alpha ). Expression of 1alpha (OH)ase was suppressed by 1alpha ,25(OH)2D3 in VDR+/+ and VDR+/- mice but not in VDR-/- mice. These results indicate that the negative feedback regulation of active vitamin D synthesis is mediated by 1alpha (OH)ase through liganded VDR.
