1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 induces the human promyelocyte leukemia cell line, HL-60, to differentiate into macrophages/monocytes via a steroid-receptor mechanism. This system is a relevant one for an investigation of the molecular mechanism of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. We have now examined the effect of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 on the induction of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3- and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3-24-hydroxylase activities in HL-60 cells. The hydroxylase activities were measured by a periodate-based assay, which was validated by comparison with well-established HPLC analysis. HPLC analysis also suggested that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 induces a 23-hydroxylase in addition to the 24-hydroxylase. 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3- and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3-24-hydroxylase activities were stimulated as early as 4 h after the addition of 10(-7) M 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and became maximal by 24 h. 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 stimulated both activities in a dose-dependent manner up to 10(-6) M. The Km of 24-hydroxylase for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 were 2 x 10(-8) M and 5.2 x 10(-7) M, respectively. Cycloheximide (5 microM) inhibited 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-mediated stimulation of 24-hydroxylase activity. Other differentiation inducers, such as retinoic acid and phorbol ester, did not induce either activity. 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3-24-hydroxylase in HL-60 mitochondria was solubilized with 0.6% cholate and reconstituted with NADPH, beef adrenal ferredoxin, and beef adrenal ferredoxin reductase, each component being essential for 24-hydroxylase activity. These results strongly suggest that the 24-hydroxylase in HL-60 cells is a three-component cytochrome P450-dependent mixed-function oxidase.

Vitamin D-dependent rickets type 1 (VDDRIA) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the Cytochrome P450 Family 27 Subfamily B Member 1 (CYP27B1) gene, which encodes for the enzyme 1 alpha-hydroxylase. We report a known case of VDDRIA with hypotonia, growth and developmental disorders and discuss about the mutation and its management.

Despite correlations between low vitamin D levels and diabetes incidence/severity, supplementation with vitamin D has not been widely effective in improving glucose parameters. This may be due to a lack of knowledge regarding how low vitamin D levels physiologically affect glucose homeostasis. We have previously shown that the brain may be a critical area for vitamin d-mediated action on peripheral glucose levels.

Control of 125-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25-(OH)2D) synthesis is believed to be primarily at the level of expression of the vitamin D-1-hydroxylase (CYP1alpha; CYP1alpha) gene. Once transcribed, generation of product, as catalyzed by 1-hydroxylase, depends upon the availability of various co-factors, molecular oxygen, electrons as well as substrate to the enzyme. Here we provide evidence that the quantity of product 1,25-(OH)2D generated also relies on the presence and level of expression of the intracellular vitamin D binding protein-1 (IDBP-1) and its capacity to promote 24-hydroxylase (CYP24) gene expression.
