Parathyroid hormone (PTH) increases the conversion of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] to 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)(2)D]. The purpose of this study was to assess the changes in serum concentration of vitamin D metabolites 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)(2)D] and 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] during teriparatide 20 μg/day (teriparatide) therapy in the double-blind Fracture Prevention Trial of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis and in the male study of men with osteoporosis. Patients were randomized to teriparatide or placebo and received daily supplements of calcium 1000 mg and vitamin D 400-1200 IU. Serum concentrations of 1,25(OH)(2)D and 25(OH)D were measured. In women (N=336), median 1,25(OH)(2)D concentrations at 1 month increased from baseline by 27% (P<0.0001) in the teriparatide group versus -3% (P=0.87) in the placebo group (between group P<0.0001). At 12 months, the increase was 19% (P<0.0001) in the teriparatide group versus -2% (P=0.23) in the placebo group (P<0.0001). Median 25(OH)D concentrations at 12 months decreased by 19% (P<0.0001) in the teriparatide group versus 0% (P=0.13) in the placebo group (P<0.0001). In men (N=287), median 1,25(OH)(2)D concentrations at 1 month increased by 22% (P<0.0001) in the teriparatide group versus 0% (P=0.99) in the placebo group (P<0.0001). At 12 months, the increase was 14% (P<0.0001) in the teriparatide group versus 5% (P=0.004) in the placebo group (P=0.17). Median 25(OH)D concentrations at 12 months decreased by 11% (P=0.001) in the teriparatide group versus an increase of 1% (P=0.20) in the placebo group (P=0.003). Therefore, treatment with teriparatide increases 1,25(OH)(2)D concentrations and decreases 25(OH)D concentrations.

Background/objectives: The gene variant results in a thermolabile MTHFR enzyme associated with elevated plasma homocysteine in TT individuals. Health risks associated with the TT genotype may be modified by dietary and supplemental folate intake. Supplementation with methyltetrahydrofolate (methylTHF) may be preferable to folic acid because it is the MTHFR product, and does not require reduction by DHFR to enter one-carbon folate metabolism.

The active metabolite of vitamin D3, calcitriol (1,25D), is widely recognised for its direct anti-proliferative and pro-differentiation effects. However, 1,25D is calcaemic, which restricts its clinical use for cancer treatment. Non-calcaemic agonists of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) could be better candidates for cancer treatment.

Cancer cells undergo remarkable metabolic changes to meet their high energetic and biosynthetic demands. The Warburg effect is the most well-characterized metabolic alteration, driving cancer cells to catabolize glucose through aerobic glycolysis to promote proliferation. Another prominent metabolic hallmark of cancer cells is their increased reliance on glutamine to replenish tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle intermediates essential for ATP production, aspartate and fatty acid synthesis, and maintaining redox homeostasis.

Commutability is where the measurement response for a reference material (RM) is the same as for an individual patient sample with the same concentration of analyte measured using two or more measurement systems. Assessment of commutability is essential when the RM is used in a calibration hierarchy or to ensure that clinical measurements are comparable across different measurement procedures and at different times. The commutability of three new Standard Reference Materials (SRMs) for determining serum total 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], defined as the sum of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] and 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], was assessed through an interlaboratory study.
