The TRPV6 calcium channel is known to be up-regulated in various tumors. The efforts to target the TRPV6 channel in vivo are still ongoing to propose an effective therapy against cancer. Here, we report the generation of two antibodies raised against extracellular epitopes corresponding to the extracellular loop between S1 and S2 (rb79) and the pore region (rb82). These antibodies generated a complex biphasic response with the transient activation of the TRPV6 channel. Store-operated calcium entry was consequently potentiated in the prostate cancer cell line LNCaP upon the treatment. Both rb79 and rb82 antibodies significantly decreased cell survival rate in a dose-dependent manner as compared to the control antibodies of the same isotype. This decrease was due to the enhanced cell death via apoptosis revealed using a sub-G1 peak in a cell cycle assay, TUNEL assay, and a Hoechst staining, having no effects in the PC3M cell line. Moreover, all TUNEL-positive cells had TRPV6 membrane staining as compared to the control antibody treatment where TRPV6-positive cells were all TUNEL negative. These data clearly demonstrate that TRPV6 channel targeting using rb79 and rb82 antibodies is fatal and may be successfully used in the anticancer therapies.

Renal expression of calcium and phosphorus transporters: contrasting responses to dietary calcium and microbial phytase in broilers and growing pigs.

Enhanced dietary Ca intake linearly increases intestinal Ca absorption in pigs, but not in broilers, suggesting potential differences in whole body Ca homeostasis. To determine the role of kidney in Ca homeostasis in these species, we varied in growing pigs in experiment (Exp) 1, the dietary Ca content 2·0 . 9·6 g/kg and phytase 0 .

Article Synopsis
- Osteoporosis in menopausal women may benefit from dietary alternatives like probiotics and isoflavones due to side effects of current medications.
- In a study with post-menopausal osteoporotic rats, combining probiotics and isoflavone (daidzein and tempeh) showed positive effects on bone metabolism and histopathology, despite reduced calcium transporter expression.
- However, using probiotics alone did not significantly improve bone health, indicating that the combination approach is more effective and suggesting further investigation into these dietary interactions is needed.

Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-21 is a salient liver-derived endocrine regulator for metabolism of glucose and triglyceride as well as bone remodeling. Previously, certain peptides in the FGF family have been shown to modulate calcium absorption across the intestinal epithelia. Since FGF21 receptor, i.

TRPV6 calcium channel is a prospective target in prostate cancer (PCa) since it is not expressed in healthy prostate while its expression increases during cancer progression. Despite the role of TRPV6 in PCa cell survival and apoptotic resistance has been already established, no reliable tool to target TRPV6 channel in vivo and thus to reduce tumor burden is known to date. Here we report the generation of mouse monoclonal antibody mAb82 raised against extracellular epitope of the pore region of the channel.

This study investigated the characteristics of -derived whey-calcium chelate (LHWCC) and its effect on the calcium absorption and bone health of rats. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy showed that carboxyl oxygen atoms, amino nitrogen atoms, and phosphate ions were the major binding sites with calcium in LHWCC, which has a sustained release effect in simulated in vitro digestion. LHWCC had beneficial effects on serum biochemical parameters, bone biomechanics, and the morphological indexes of the bones of calcium-deficient rats when fed at a dose of 40 mg Ca/kg BW for 7 weeks.
