Synthetic Studies on Vitamin D Derivatives with Diverse but Selective Biological Activities.

Chem Pharm Bull (Tokyo)

January 2025

Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Teikyo University, 2-11-1 Kaga, Itabashi-ku, Tokyo 173-8605, Japan.

Article Synopsis
  • A-ring modifications in 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D enhance its binding to the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and increase its stability in cells by resisting metabolism, leading to longer-lasting effects.
  • Various modified A-ring precursors synthesized from d-glucose showed specific biological activities with minimal calcemic side effects, including MART-10's potent antitumor effects in cancer models and AH-1's superior bone-forming properties in osteoporosis models compared to natural vitamin D.
  • Ongoing research includes developing a library of fluorinated vitamin D analogs with potential anti-inflammatory effects and therapeutic applications for conditions like psoriasis, alongside the creation of the VDR-silent analog KK-052, which selectively inhibits SREBP/SC

Atherogenic Effect of Homocysteine, a Biomarker of Inflammation and Its Treatment.

Int J Angiol

December 2024

Department of Physiology, College of Medicine, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada.

Hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) is an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis. Ischemic stroke and heart disease, coronary heart disease, and cardiovascular disease are events resulting from long-lasting and silent atherosclerosis. This paper deals with the synthesis of homocysteine (Hcy), causes of HHcy, mechanism of HHcy-induced atherosclerosis, and treatment of HHcy.

Cancer initiation and progression result from genetic and epigenetic alterations caused by interactions between environmental and endogenous factors leading to aberrant cell signalling. Colorectal cancers (CRC) are linked to abnormal activation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, whose key feature is the nuclear accumulation of acetylated β-catenin in colon epithelial cells. Nuclear β-catenin acts as a transcriptional co-activator, targeting genes involved in cell proliferation and invasion.
