We have characterized proteolytic fragments of the chick intestinal 1,25-dihyroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-(OH)2D3) receptor, produced through either exogenous or endogenous protease action, utilizing a variety of physical and functional assays coupled to immunoblot detection methodology. Treatment of intestinal cytosol with increasing concentrations of trypsin resulted in a progressive diminishment of the 60-kDa receptor concomitant with the appearance of a 20-kDa fragment reactive by Western blot analysis to an anti-1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor monoclonal antibody. Cleveland analysis supported the receptor-origin of this 20-kDa fragment: a common immunoreactive species of 12 kDa could be generated by Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease treatment of the intact 60-kDa receptor as well as the 20-kDa proteolytic product. The 20-kDa fragment did not bind hormone but was capable of interacting with DNA-cellulose in a fashion identical to that of the 60-kDa receptor and, therefore, may contain the functional DNA-binding domain of the chick 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor. Thus, this fragment likely represents the complement of a larger hormone-bound fragment that we have previously described (Allegretto, E. A., and Pike, J.W. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 10139-10145). In contrast to the exogenous effect of trypsin, incubation of cytosol resulted in the time-dependent formation of an endogenous protease-derived fragment of 45 kDa. Cleveland analysis was consistent with the 60-kDa receptor derivation of the 45-kDa fragment. This species retained the hormone-binding site and the antibody determinant but was devoid of DNA-binding activity. Moreover, it generated neither the trypsin-dependent 20-kDa fragment nor the V8 protease-dependent 12-kDa species and, therefore, was derived from the opposite end of the receptor molecule. These data have facilitated the construction of a schematic model of the chick receptor in which the immunoreactive epitope is located between the functional domains for hormone binding and DNA binding. 相似文献

Exposure of the 60 kDa chick intestinal 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) receptor to carboxypeptidase A resulted in a time dependent decrease in receptor hormone-binding; after 2 h, there was no detectable macro-molecular-bound 1,25(OH)2[3H]D3. Upon DNA-cellulose chromatography of this preparation, a 56 kDa protein adsorbed to the column and eluted as a function of para-chloromercuribenzene sulfonate (a sulfhydryl blocking reagent). The 56 kDa fragment was detected by anti-receptor monoclonal antibodies via immunoblot technology. The 1,25(OH)2[3H]D3 eluted in the fall through fractions of the column. Thus, cleavage of up to 40 amino acids from the carboxy-terminus of the 1,25(OH)2D3 receptor results in a protein which no longer binds to hormone, but retains its capacity to interact with DNA-cellulose and monoclonal antibody. These results represent novel biochemical evidence that allows us to orient the 1,25(OH)2D3 binding domain near the C-terminus of the receptor. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies to chick intestinal receptors for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. Interaction and effects of binding on receptor function 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Monoclonal antibodies, developed against the chick intestinal receptor for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3), were characterized with respect to their interaction with this protein and for their effects on the polypeptide's hormone-binding and nuclear-binding functions. Antibodies, internally labeled with [35S]methionine, react directly with hormone-labeled receptor, as identified by comigration of both isotopes during sedimentation on hypertonic 10-30% sucrose gradients. Antibodies bound both the unoccupied and occupied forms of the receptor, the latter with equilibrium dissociation constants of 10(-10)-10(-11) M at 4 degrees C. Excess antibody, added to unoccupied receptors prior to incubation with 1,25(OH)2D3, did not affect the receptor's apparent affinity for the hormone (Kd approximately equal to 6 X 10(-11) M). In contrast, all three antibodies, complexed with occupied receptors, significantly reduced the extent of the receptor's association with isolated nuclei (48-64% inhibition). This inhibition most likely represents a general reduction in the affinity of the protein for nuclei under the conditions tested, since the affinity of the occupied 1,25(OH)2D3 receptor for DNA, as well as the ionic strength necessary to elute receptor from both cation and anion exchange resins was significantly reduced by prior incubation with excess antibody. These findings suggest that the epitopes for each of the three monoclonal antibodies may be located in or near the DNA or nuclear binding domain of the 1,25(OH)2D3 receptor. Taken cumulatively, these results indicate that the monoclonal immunoreagents utilized here should prove useful in delineating important biochemical features of this unique sterol hormone receptor. 相似文献

Cytosols from cultured myoblast cells (G-8 and H9c2) prepared in high salt (0.3 M KCl) possesses receptor like proteins for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-(OH)2D3) that sediment in the 3.2 S region of sucrose gradients. These receptors were characterized as having high affinity (Kd less than 0.1 nM) for 1,25-(OH)2D3 and are in low capacity (less than 80 fmol/mg of cytosol protein). Analog competition for receptor binding revealed that 1,25-(OH)2D3 was more potent than 24,25-(OH)2D3, or 25-(OH)2D3 for displacement of 1,25-(OH)2[3H]D3 from these 3.2 S region sedimenting receptors. Furthermore, the receptor proteins had affinity for DNA and eluted from Sephacryl S-200 as a macromolecule with Stokes radius (Rs) of 32 A. High salt cytosol from collagenase-dispersed skeletal muscle cells was also found to possess a 3.2 S 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor-like protein. The 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor concentration in both G-8 and H9c2 myoblast lines was found to down-regulate by 50-70% when cells were stimulated to differentiate to myotubes by lowering fetal calf serum to 5% of the medium. Moreover, we demonstrated that 1,25-(OH)2D3 can inhibit DNA synthesis and cell proliferation of the G-8 myoblast cells in a dose-dependent manner. 1,25-(OH)2D3 was more potent at inhibiting cell proliferation in cells grown in 5% serum than in 20% serum. The data suggest that 1,25-(OH)2D3 can act directly on muscle myoblast via a 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor that is similar to those found in intestine and bone. The data support the possibility that muscle is a target tissue for 1,25-(OH)2D3 and the hormone may act to initiate terminal differentiation of myoblast cells. 相似文献

Using [3H]-26,26,26,27,27,27-hexafluoro-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (F6-1,25-(OH)2D3), we have examined its ability to bind to the 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor, and the ability of the resulting complex to bind DNA. The binding sites for [3H]F6-1,25-(OH)2D3 in the chick intestinal receptor represented a limited number of saturable sites for which 1,25-(OH)2D3 competes. 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 is three times more active than F6-1,25-(OH)2D3 in displacing [3H]F6-1,25-(OH)2D3. By affinity chromatography using DNA-Sephadex, the [3H]F6-1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor complex eluted from the column in a single peak at 0.14 M KCl, while [3H]-1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor complex eluted at 0.13 M KCl. These results indicate that F6-1,25-(OH)2D3 and 1,25-(OH)2D3 recognize the same binding site of the receptor and that the F6-1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor complex binds DNA more tightly than the 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor complex. We suggest that the higher binding affinity for DNA may contribute to the greater biological activity of F6-1,25-(OH)2D3. 相似文献

Antisera were raised against the NH(2)-terminus of the putative basal lateral membrane (BLM) receptor for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) [1,25(OH)(2)D(3); BLM-VDR]. In Western analyses of BLM proteins, antibody (Ab) 099 was monospecific for a 64.5-kDa band. A protein of 64.5 kDa was also labeled by the affinity ligand [(14)C]1, 25(OH)(2)D(3)-bromoacetate; label was diminished in the presence of excess unlabeled secosteroid. The monoclonal antibody against the nuclear VDR (9A7) failed to detect an appropriate band in BLM fractions. Preincubation of isolated intestinal cells with Ab 099, but not 9A7, affected the following two 1,25(OH)(2)D(3)-mediated signal transduction events: augmented intracellular calcium and protein kinase C activity. Subcellular distribution of Ab 099 reactivity by Western analyses and fluorescence microscopy revealed the highest concentrations in BLM followed by the endoplasmic reticulum. Exposure of isolated intestinal cells to 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) for 10 s or vascular perfusion of duodena for 5 min resulted in a time-dependent increase in nuclear localization of the BLM-VDR antigen, as judged by electron microscopy, whereas 24, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) failed to increase antigenic labeling in nuclei. Densitometric quantitation of Western blots of subcellular fractions prepared from isolated intestinal cells treated with vehicle or 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) confirmed a hormone-induced increase of putative BLM-VDR in the nucleus. It is concluded that a novel cell surface binding protein for 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) has been identified. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies to the porcine intestinal receptor for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3: interaction with distinct receptor domains 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18
Monoclonal antibodies to different domains of the porcine intestinal 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2D3] receptor have been produced. A nuclear extract enriched in the 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor was prepared from small intestinal mucosa of young pigs. The receptor was purified an additional 6600-fold by chromatography on DNA-cellulose, ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration high-performance liquid chromatography, and DEAE-Sepharose chromatography, with an overall yield of 23% and an average purity of 24%. A BALB/c mouse immunized with this material developed serum polyclonal antibodies to the 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor, as demonstrated by a change in sedimentation of the porcine receptor on sucrose gradients. Spleen cells from this animal were fused with mouse myeloma cells (P3-NSI/1-Ag4-1, SP2/0-Ag14), and 24 hybridomas secreting antibodies to the 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor were identified by both a radiometric immunosorbent assay and an immunoprecipitation assay. Twenty-one hybridoma lines were cloned by limiting dilution and further characterized as subclass IgG1 antibodies with the exception of one which is an IgA. All but two of the antibodies cross-react with the 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor from both mammalian (human, monkey, and rat) and avian (chicken) intestine; two antibodies recognize only porcine intestinal receptor. All antibodies are unreactive to the vitamin D serum transport protein. Eight of the antibodies bind denatured receptor on an immunoblot. A solid-phase competition assay was used to identify four groups of antibodies that bind to distinct epitopes on the 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor. One antibody from each of the four groups was used to examine the effect of antibody binding on the DNA-binding activity of the receptor-hormone complex. One antibody completely inhibited the binding of the 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor complex to DNA-cellulose, suggesting that the epitope for this antibody may be located in the polynucleotide binding domain of the protein. Antibodies from two additional groups only slightly perturbed DNA binding, while one had no effect, suggesting that these antibodies bind to receptor epitopes distant from the region of the polypeptide directly involved in polynucleotide binding. These antibodies that are directed to several different binding sites on the 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor provide important new tools to probe the biochemistry and topology of the 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor and to investigate its role in mediating target tissue response to hormone. 相似文献

Hormone-dependent phosphorylation of the 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 receptor in mouse fibroblasts 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Experimental results, employing several immunologic techniques, suggest that the mouse receptor for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) undergoes hormone-dependent phosphorylation in intact cells. Treatment of monolayer cultures of mouse 3T6 fibroblasts with 1,25(OH)2D3 reveals that the occupied 1,25(OH)2D3 receptor displays a minor reduction in electrophoretic mobility as compared to its unoccupied 54,500 dalton counterpart, a change consistent with covalent modification. Similar results were obtained by immunoprecipitation of metabolically-labeled receptors after incubation of 3T6 cells with [35S]methionine. This technique also provided greater insight into the precursor-product relationship between the two receptor forms. [32P]Orthophosphate-labeling of 3T6 cells, followed by immunoprecipitation indicated that only the form exhibiting covalent modification was phosphorylated. The temporal correspondence between the binding of 1,25(OH)2D3 to its cellular receptor and its phosphorylation suggests that the biochemical role of 1,25(OH)2D3 may be to induce a conformational change susceptible to phosphorylation and possibly functional activation. 相似文献

Immunological identification of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 receptors in human promyelocytic leukemic cells (HL-60) during homologous regulation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Immunological techniques were utilized to detect 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-(OH)2D3) receptor levels and to characterize physical/chemical changes in receptors in human promyelocytic leukemic cells (HL-60) during continuous exposure to hormone. The monoclonal antibody (IVG8C11) raised against the porcine intestinal 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor immunoprecipitated quantitatively 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptors in nuclear extracts from HL-60 cells. The highly enriched immunoprecipitated receptors were electrophoresed on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels and transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membranes, which were probed with 125I-labeled IVG8C11. The basal receptor from the cells treated with 1,25-(OH)2D3 for 2 h was detected as a single form at 53 kDa. Moreover, receptors were shown to be up-regulated at 12 h and down-regulated at 48 and 72 h in the continuous presence of hormone as evidenced by the ratio of density of the bands, 1.0 (2 h):4.2 (12 h):1.2 (48 h):0.9 (72 h), as measured by laser scanning densitometry. The up- and down-regulated receptors were also detected as single forms and had the same molecular mass as the basal receptor. Therefore, the data presented here strongly support the hypothesis of homologous regulation of 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptors in intact human target cells. 相似文献

Vitamin K deficiency in rats caused a rise of in vivo occupied 1,25(OH)2D3 receptor level in chromatin of the intestinal mucosa and a marked (2-2.5-fold) increase of intestinal cytosolic 1,25(OH)2D3-receptor complex binding with heterologous DNA, whereas maximum binding capacity and equilibrium dissociation constant of cytosolic 1,25 (OH)2D3 receptors did not change. Preincubation of renal and intestinal cytosol of vitamin K-deficient rats with microsomal vitamin K-dependent gamma-carboxylating system reduced sharply 1,25(OH)2D3-receptor complex binding with DNA. In rats treated by vitamin K antagonist along with a low calcium diet, no dramatic decrease of occupied 1,25(OH)2D3 receptors occurred after the animals were maintained with a high calcium diet. No such effect was observed in vitamin K-replete rats. The data demonstrate vitamin K-dependent Ca-sensitive qualitative modification of 1,25(OH)2D3 receptor dropping its binding performance to DNA. 相似文献

1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 activates secretion of hydrogen peroxide by human monocytes 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Human blood monocytes cultured in the presence of 1,25(OH)2D3 developed enhanced competence for secretion of H2O2 relative to cells suspended in media. This effect was maximal at a concentration of 10(-8) M 1,25(OH)2D3. After 3 days of incubation, monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) exposed to 1,25(OH)2D3 demonstrated competence for secretion of H2O2 equivalent to cells exposed to recombinant IFN-gamma. Both IFN-gamma and 1,25(OH)2D3 offset decay of this function among cells in culture after 7 days. Simultaneous exposure of cells to 1,25(OH)2D3 and IFN-gamma did not activate competence for H2O2 secretion more than either agent alone. 24,25(OH)2D3 and 25(OH)2D3 activated MDM but at higher concentration than required for 1,25(OH)2D3. Progesterone did not affect H2O2 production. Incubation of MDM with a monoclonal antibody directed against IFN-gamma inhibited activation induced by lymphokine, and to a lesser extent by cells activated with IFN-gamma; this antibody had an insignificant effect on cells treated with 1,25(OH)2D3. These results suggest that 1,25(OH)2D3 exerts a receptor-mediated effect on monocyte function that results in cellular activation as manifested by enhanced competence for secretion of H2O2. It is possible that smaller concentrations of 1,25(OH)2D3 present in serum are permissive for macrophage activation, or that monocytic phagocytes are exposed to high concentrations of vitamin D metabolites under some clinical circumstances. 相似文献

The primary and specific function of the osteoclast is the resorption of bone. We have applied this criterion, and a monoclonal antibody that binds specifically to osteoclasts, to cultures of tissues that may contain osteoclastic precursors. Bone marrow and spleen cells were incubated for up to 4 weeks in the presence or absence of parathyroid hormone, interleukin 1, or 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3, on plastic coverslips or slices of devitalised bone. Osteoclasts (as judged by the presence of resorption cavities and the appearance of monoclonal antibody-positive cells) did not develop in cultures incubated without added hormones, nor in cultures containing parathyroid hormone or interleukin 1, but were regularly observed when bone marrow cells were incubated with 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3. Although multinucleate giant cells were common after incubation, especially in the presence 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3, monoclonal antibody bound not to these cells but to a minor and distinctive population of mononuclear cells and cells of low multinuclearity. We found no excavations and no monoclonal antibody-positive cells after incubation of peritoneal macrophages with 1,25(OH)2D3. These results provide direct evidence of osteoclastic function arising in cultures of haemopoietic tissues. 相似文献

On the basis of previous data that 1,25(OH)2D3 suppressed both helper and suppressor activities of CD4 and CD8 cells in the pokeweek mitogen-stimulated culture, we examined the further effect of 1,25(OH)2D3 on both cells to define how 1,25(OH)2D3 is involved in the deterioration of their functions. 1,25(OH)2D3 suppressed the pokeweed mitogen and phytohemagglutinin-induced DNA synthesis of CD4 and CD8 cells. The suppression by 1,25(OH)2D3 of DNA synthesis was caused by a time lag in reaching maximal response. 1,25(OH)2D3 also suppressed interleukin-2 production of CD4 and CD8 cells. 1,25(OH)2D3 did not, however, affect their interleukin-2 receptor expression detected within 24 hr after phytohemagglutinin stimulation. In addition, 1,25(OH)2D3 failed to suppress DNA synthesis of CD4 and CD8 cells when cultured with a large amount of interleukin-2. Suppression by 1,25(OH)2D3 of proliferation and interleukin-2 production in CD4 and CD8 cells would bring about the decrease of their helper or suppressor functions by inhibiting their expansion or maturation. 相似文献

Studies were made on the effects of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2D3] on the syntheses of DNA and glycosaminoglycans (GAG) by rat aortic smooth muscle cells (SMC) in vitro. DNA synthesis in cell cultures without fetal calf serum (FCS) was stimulated by incubation for 24 hr with 1,25-(OH)2D3 at concentrations of more than 10(-12) M, stimulation being maximal at a concentration of 10(-8) M. On the other hand, GAG synthesis was inhibited dose-dependently by 1,25-(OH)2D3 at concentrations of more than 10(-11) M. Other vitamin D3 metabolites had similar, but weaker effects on the syntheses of DNA and GAG by SMC, which were proportional to their affinities for the 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor. These effects of 1,25-(OH)2D3 were not seen after short-term incubation (1 hr). These findings suggested that 1,25-(OH)2D3 stimulated the proliferation of SMC independent of growth factors in FCS, and that its effects were dependent on its specific receptor. Excess 1,25-(OH)2D3 might cause arteriosclerosis not only by stimulating proliferation but also by suppressing GAG synthesis. 相似文献

We describe herein two different effects of protease inhibitors and substrates on receptors for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) obtained from the intestinal mucosa of vitamin D-deficient chicks: inhibition of binding of 1,25(OH)2D3 to its receptor and stabilization of the receptor. Both L-1-tosylamido-2-phenylethyl chloromethyl ketone (TPCK), a chymotrypsin inhibitor, and N alpha-p-tosyl-L-lysine chloromethyl ketone (TLCK), a trypsin inhibitor, block [3H]1,25(OH)2D3 binding to the receptor. Fifty per cent inhibition of binding occurs at 20 microM TPCK, and 100% inhibition at 100-200 microM; TLCK is about 25-fold less effective. At higher concentrations (10-100 mM), the chymotrypsin substrates N alpha-p-tosyl-L-arginine methyl ester and tryptophan methyl ester and the cathepsin B inhibitor leupeptin also inhibit [3H] 1,25(OH)2D3 binding to its receptor. Different inhibitors and substrates interact with the receptor differently: TPCK (20 microM) and N alpha-p-tosyl-L-arginine methyl ester (10 mM) are reversible, noncompetitive inhibitors, L-tryptophan methyl ester (20 mM) is a reversible competitive inhibitor, and phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (300 microM) shows no effect on [3H]1,25(OH)2D3 binding to its receptor. The most stable form of unoccupied 1,25(OH)2D3 receptors from chick intestinal mucosa was that obtained from a low salt chromatin preparation (t 1/2 = 6.0 h). The presence of KCl drastically decreased receptor stability (t 1/2 = 1.8 h); and the addition of 2.5 mM CaCl2 further reduced their stability. Phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride and Trasylol inhibited the KCl-induced receptor instability, but did not prevent the additional instability in the presence of CaCl2. In summary, TPCK and TLCK exert direct effects on the 1,25(OH)2D3 receptor molecule, independent of their protease inhibitor function. These compounds may prove useful as covalent affinity labels for the receptor. On the other hand, phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride and Trasylol stabilize 1,25(OH)2D3 receptors, probably via inhibition of KCl-activated nuclear protease(s). This receptor stabilization will be advantageous in receptor assays and/or purification procedures. 相似文献

We confirmed our previous observation that duodenal Ca2+ absorption and serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25-(OH)2D) levels declined concurrently in old (24 months old) rats as compared to young (6 months old) rats. It is well known that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-3 (1,25-(OH)2D3) expresses its action after binding to specific receptor molecules. In this paper, we compared certain properties of rat duodenal 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptors from old and young animals. Receptor preparations were incubated with [3H]1,25-(OH)2D3 to quantitate the number of unoccupied and total receptor sites and showed that total and unoccupied receptor sites decreased by 22 and 16%, respectively in old rats. Endogenously occupied sites were reduced by 43% in duodenum of the old rat and, consequently, the percentage of receptor occupancy also declined. Age did not affect the dissociation constant (KD) of 1,25-(OH)2D3 from the receptor; the sedimentation coefficient (3.3 S) of the tritiated 1,25-(OH)2D3-receptor complex in sucrose density centrifugation; or its affinity for DNA. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that the age-related decline in Ca2+ absorption in the intestine may be due, in part, to the decrement in the circulating level of 1,25-(OH)2D and a reduction of intestinal 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor occupancy status. 相似文献

Receptors for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in chick pancreas: a partial physical and functional characterization 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
J W Pike 《Journal of steroid biochemistry》1982,16(3):385-395
1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3(1,25-(OH)2D3) receptors from the rachitic chick pancreas have been partially characterized. Analyses of these receptors by isokinetic gradient centrifugation and analytical gel filtration reveal a sedimentation coefficient (S) of 3.3-3.7, a molecular weight (Mr) of 58,500-68,000, and a calculated Stokes molecular radius (Rs) of 34-36 A. Polyethylenimine-ammonium sulfate precipitation of pancreatic cytosol partially purifies aporeceptor and reduces nonspecific binding (in part, 5.8S DBP), thus providing material more amenable to kinetic analyses, Binding studies incorporating this fractionated cytosol reveal an equilibrium dissociation constant (K4) of approximately 0.112 nM at 2 degrees C for the 1,25-(OH)2D3-receptor interaction. Competition studies further demonstrate a particular preference for 1,25-(OH)2D3 over 1,24(R),25-trihydroxyvitamin D3, 24(R),25-dihydroxyvitamin C3, and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3. The pancreatic receptor also binds to immobilized group-selective affinity ligands such as DNA, cibacron blue, and heparin, and can be eluted as a single macromolecular species during standard linear KCl gradients. Its interaction with these ligands supports the premise that the 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptors' fundamental mode of action is at the level of the cellular genome. Salt-dependent nuclear uptake and chromatin localization studies with this receptor in vitro also support this potential site of action. Significantly, a physiologic dose of 1,25-(OH)2[3H]D3 to rachitic chicks leads to the in vivo formation of a receptor-hormone complex as identified by DNA-cellulose chromatography. These observations provide further evidence that the pancreatic protein is a biologically relevant component of the chick pancreas which functions to accumulate hormone intracellularly under physiologic situations. 相似文献

Hormonal effects of vitamin D3 on epidermal melanocytes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The role of cholecalciferol, 25(OH) D3, and 1,25(OH)2 D3, as modulators of melanocyte function and proliferation has been examined. Topical application of 100 micrograms cholecalciferol to the pinnal epidermis of DBA/2J mice for 5 or 10 days increased the number of L-dihydroxyphenylalanine-positive (DOPA-positive) melanocytes and had a synergistic effect with a low dose of ultraviolet B light (UVB). Application of 1 microgram 1,25(OH)2 D3 had a transient effect on epidermal melanocytes. Addition of cholecalciferol to pure cultures of human melanocytes did not alter their tyrosinase activity (therefore, melanin synthesis) or growth rate even after 72 hours of treatment. However, treatment of similar cultures with 1,25(OH)2 D3 at a concentration equal to or greater than 10(-8) M suppressed tyrosinase activity but did not affect proliferation. The effect of 25(OH) D3 was similar to, but lower in magnitude than, that of 1,25(OH)2 D3. We attempted to demonstrate the presence of specific receptors for 1,25(OH)2 D3 in normal human melanocytes using the monoclonal antibody (Mo Ab) 9A7 gamma raised against the receptor for 1,25(OH)2 D3. Melanocytes were exposed to 9A7 gamma and to a secondary biotinylated Ab and analyzed by the fluorescence activated cell sorter (FACS). An increase in the specific fluorescent signal was constantly observed. By using the immunoblotting technique, we observed a major immunoreactive species that migrated in the 53-kD region in normal melanocytes. The size of this major immunoreactive species was smaller in melanoma cells than in normal melanocytes. This correlates with the finding that the former cells were unresponsive to cholecalciferol, 25(OH) D3, or 1,25(OH)2 D3 treatment. These results predict a direct role for 1,25(OH)2 D3 as an effector of normal melanocyte function. 相似文献

This is the first report of the use of non-denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) to measure the apparent molecular weight of the chick intestinal 1 alpha, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1, 25-(OH)2 - D3) receptor and to study the effect of dithiothreitol on it. When prepared in the absence of this factor, chick intestinal cytosol contained one major specific 1,25 - (OH)2 - D3 binding peak. Its apparent molecular weight was 95,200 +/- 1,900 (SD) daltons. Preparation of the cytosol in the presence of 5 mM dithiothreitol resulted in the appearance, besides the 95,000 daltons peak, of an additional 1,25 - (OH)2 - D3 binding peak, the molecular weight of which was 73,600 +/- 3,300 (SD). This effect of dithiothreitol could be suppressed by the simultaneous addition of 10 mM N alpha-p-tosyl-L-arginine methyl ester (TAME), a protease inhibitor. 相似文献
