Summary
The vitamin D3 metabolite, 25-hydroxycholecalciferol, at concentrations of 0.01 to 10.0 μg/ml, decreased calcium uptake by isolated bone cells. The effect occurred within 1 min after the simultaneous addition of metabolite and45Ca. Lactic acid and ATP production by the cells was not affected. 24(R), 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol produced a similar decrease in calcium uptake. Vitamin D3 had no effect at concentrations from 0.01 to 10.0 μg/ml. No effect of 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol on calcium uptake was observed with concentrations from 0.1 to 100 ng/ml and various preincubation periods extending to 2 h. None of the agents had any effect on calcium efflux. The effects of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol and 24(R), 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol on calcium uptake were not seen in isolated fetal rat skin cell preparations.
