Effects of 6-9 days of vitamin D3 (D3), 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3], 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24,25(OH)2D3], or 1,24,25-trihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,24,25(OH)3D3] on Mg metabolism were studied in vitamin D-deficient (-D) rats. Mg absorption expressed as percent intake increased with 1,25(OH)2D3 and 1,24,25(OH)3D3. Urinary Mg (UMg) increased with no change in serum Mg (SMg) or Mg balance. 1,25(OH)2D3 was threefold more potent than 1,24,25(OH)3D3 in raising serum Ca and Mg absorption. In a separate experiment in pair-fed rats given D3, 1,25-(OH)2D3, or 1,24,25(OH)3D3, the diet contained either 0.03 or 0.2% Mg; 1,25(OH)2D3 and D3 lowered SMg after 3 days; UMg increased after 24 h to remain elevated. D3 and 1,25(OH)2D3 augmented Mg absorption; feeding 0.2% Mg lowered Mg absorption in -D animals. All sterols augmented Mg absorption in -D rats; both the earlier action of 1,25(OH)2D3 and 1,24,25(OH)3D3 suggests that 1-hydroxylation is necessary. Suppressed Mg absorption with 0.2% Mg in -D rats suggests two transport processes, with one vitamin D dependent. Higher UMg with decreased SMg with 1,25(OH)2D3 suggests reduced tubular reabsorption.

We compared the intestinal absorption of three vitamin D3 sterols and tested the hypothesis that the intestine hydroxylates absorbed vitamin D and transports polar metabolites in portal venous blood. Micellar solutions containing 50 nmol of a radiolabeled vitamin D3 sterol (1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, or vitamin D3) were placed in closed jejunal segments of rats prepared with lymphatic and mesenteric venous fistulas. Venous blood loss was replaced by infusion of donor rat blood into the saphenous vein. After 1-2 h the rats were killed, and intestinal homogenates, mesenteric blood, and lymph were analyzed. The average rate of absorption of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] was two- and fivefold higher than that of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3] and vitamin D3 (D3), respectively. Transport of hydroxylated vitamin D sterols was primarily via the venous route; the average rate of venous transport of 1,25(OH)2D3 was 18.3 X 10(2) nmol X min-1 X g-1 compared with 8.8 X 10(2) for 25(OH)D3 and 0.13 X 10(2) for D3. High-performance liquid chromatography of intestinal and plasma extracts revealed that there was 25-hydroxylation of absorbed D3, 24- and putative 1-hydroxylation of absorbed 25(OH)D3, and prompt portal venous transport of all hydroxylated metabolites. When 1,25(OH)2D3 was infused into the lumen, the composition of radiolabeled sterols found in intestinal homogenates and mesenteric venous plasma was virtually identical to that of the infusate. These studies provide in vivo evidence for the intestinal metabolism of pharmacological quantities of absorbed vitamin D3 sterols and the prompt portal venous transport of more polar metabolites.

Abstrak. Tuberkulosis (TB) merupakan salah satu penyakit infeksi yang menjadi masalah di dunia. Risiko untuk mendapatkan infeksi TB dipengaruhi oleh imunitas alamiah melawan mikobakteria. Peptida antimikroba merupakan salah satu barrier pertahanan alamiah. Cathelicidin adalah suatu peptida anti mikroba yang berperan pada proses imunitas terhadap TB. Cathelicidin Leusin Leusin-37 (LL-37) merupakan satu-satunya cathelicidin yang ada pada manusia dan dapat diekspresikan dari beberapa sel temasuk sel imun. Inducer Cathelicidin yang paling poten adalah 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 yang merupakan bentuk aktif vitamin D 25(OH)D3. Tinjauan pustaka ini membahas tentang cathelicidin, vitamin D3 dam peranannya pada imunitas terhadap TB.Kata kunci: Cathelicidin, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, vitamin D 25(OH)2D3, imunitas, TuberkulosisAbstract. Tuberculosis is one of the most important infectious diseases worldwide. The susceptibility to this disease depends to great extent on the innate immune response against mycobacteria. Antimicrobial peptides are one of the natural defense barriers. Cathelicidin Leucine Leucine-37 (LL-37) is the only cathelicidin present in humans and synthesized by several cells including immune cells. The most effective inducer of Cathelicidin is 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2 D3), which is an active form of vitamin D 25(OH)D3. This review discusses cathelicidin, vitamin D3 and its role in immunity against TBKeywords: Cathelicidin, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, vitamin D 25(OH)D3, immunity, Tuberkulosis

The biochemical nature of the physiological defect found in chick embryos from hens supported on 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 as their sole source of vitamin D is described. Vitamin D-deficient hens (44-wk-old) were divided into six groups of five and dosed daily for 19 wk with either 2.0 micrograms of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, 2.0 micrograms of 24,24-difluoro-25-hydroxy-vitamin D3, 0.4 micrograms of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, 2.0 micrograms of 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, 0.4 micrograms of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 plus 2.0 micrograms of 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, or vehicle only. Normal embryonic development was found in eggs from hens given 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 or 24,24-difluoro-25-hydroxyvitamin D3, whereas embryos from hens given 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, or their combination were abnormal and failed to hatch. Embryos from hens fed 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and/or 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 had vitamin D deficiency: low bone ash, low plasma calcium, low total body calcium, and extremely high plasma phosphorus. Because the shell is the major source of calcium for the developing embryo, calcium transport from the shell to the embryos across the chorioallantoic membrane apparently fails, giving rise to the observed defects in embryonic development.

Maternal food consumption, maternal body weight loss, and pup growth were studied in the following six groups of rats: vitamin D-deficient, vitamin D3-replete, vitamin D3-replete but pair-fed with the vitamin D-deficient rats and rats given either 50, 150, or 450 pmol/day of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 as their sole source of vitamin D by continuous infusion from an Alzet osmotic minipump. As expected, vitamin D-deficient rats were hypocalcemic and lost body weight, and their pups stopped growing at 1 wk of age. Food consumption by the vitamin D-deficient rats was one-third that of the vitamin D3-replete rats. Although normalization of plasma calcium levels was not perfect, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 treatment led to normal maternal food consumption, prevented maternal body weight loss, and promoted normal pup growth. Pups from the vitamin D3-replete rats pair-fed with the vitamin D-deficient rats did not grow properly and their dams lost body weight. These data indicate that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 is fully capable of replacing vitamin D3 in promoting maternal food consumption in lactating rats and that maintaining adequate food consumption is a major factor in the stimulatory effect of vitamin D3 on pup growth and hence milk production. The anorexia and reduced milk production of vitamin D-deficient lactating rats did not result from changes in plasma glucose or triglyceride levels.

Calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) metabolism were studied in vitamin D-deficient rats as vitamin D status and dietary magnesium (Mg) were varied. Rats given normal (0.03%) or high (0.2%) Mg diets received either vehicle, vitamin D3 (1,650 pmol/day), or 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (60 pmol/day) for 9 days. In vitamin D-deficient rats, high dietary Mg lowered intestinal Ca absorption from 40 +/- 5 to 11 +/- 5%; P absorption decreased 50%. Treatment with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 prevented the Mg-induced fall in absorption; vitamin D3 did so only for the first 6 days. The total Ca and Mg (Ca + Mg) absorbed (mM/day) decreased from 0.85 +/- 0.050 mM/day to 0.14 +/- 0.10 with the high dietary Mg; 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 treatment raised Ca + Mg absorption regardless of diet Mg; high dietary Mg raised serum Ca despite a decreased intestinal Ca absorption and urinary Ca; treatment with either sterol had no added calcemic effect. These results are consistent with two processes for intestinal Ca and P transport: one vitamin D-dependent and the other non-vitsamin D-dependent and inhibited by high dietary Mg. Also high dietary Mg increases serum Ca, perhaps by affecting bone resorption.
