Abstract We describe a simplified assay for 24,25-and 1.25-dihydroxyvitamin D in human serum. It involves two preparative steps, and normal chick intestine is used in preparing cytosol-binding protein. Our results for 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D include a reference interval of 2.9—16 nmol/L (1.2—6.7 microgram/L), a mean of 6.7 nmol/L (2.8 microgram/L), an intra-assay CV of 11%, and an interassay CV of 22%. For 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, these data were 29—168 pmol/L (12—70 ng/L), 86 pmol/L (36 ng/L), 12%, and 22%, respectively. In hypoparathyroid patients with vitamin D intoxication, mean concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D and 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D in serum were significantly above normal; the 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D concentrations were significantly below normal. Patients with malabsorption and/or post-gastrectomy states had significantly subnormal values for both 25-hydroxyvitamin D and 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D in serum, and there was a significantly negative correlation between each of these biochemical values and the severity of osteomalacia. We also discuss cost effectiveness of assaying vitamin D metabolites in human serum.

AbstractHypercalcemia occurs in up to 4% of the population in association with malignancy, primary hyperparathyroidism, ingestion of excessive calcium and/or vitamin D, ectopic production of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)2D], and impaired degradation of 1,25(OH)2D. The ingestion of excessive amounts of vitamin D3 (or vitamin D2) results in hypercalcemia and hypercalciuria due to the formation of supraphysiological amounts of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] that bind to the vitamin D receptor, albeit with lower affinity than the active form of the vitamin, 1,25(OH)2D, and the formation of 5,6-trans 25(OH)D, which binds to the vitamin D receptor more tightly than 25(OH)D. In patients with granulomatous disease such as sarcoidosis or tuberculosis and tumors such as lymphomas, hypercalcemia occurs as a result of the activity of ectopic 25(OH)D-1-hydroxylase (CYP27B1) expressed in macrophages or tumor cells and the formation of excessive amounts of 1,25(OH)2D. Recent work has identified a novel cause of non-PTH-mediated hypercalcemia that occurs when the degradation of 1,25(OH)2D is impaired as a result of mutations of the 1,25(OH)2D-24-hydroxylase cytochrome P450 (CYP24A1). Patients with biallelic and, in some instances, monoallelic mutations of the CYP24A1 gene have elevated serum calcium concentrations associated with elevated serum 1,25(OH)2D, suppressed PTH concentrations, hypercalciuria, nephrocalcinosis, nephrolithiasis, and on occasion, reduced bone density. Of interest, first-time calcium renal stone formers have elevated 1,25(OH)2D and evidence of impaired 24-hydroxylase-mediated 1,25(OH)2D degradation. We will describe the biochemical processes associated with the synthesis and degradation of various vitamin D metabolites, the clinical features of the vitamin D-mediated hypercalcemia, their biochemical diagnosis, and treatment.

Context: There is no doubt that vitamin D must be activated to the hormonal form 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D to achieve full biological activity or that many tissues participate in this activation process—be it endocrine or autocrine. We believe that not only is 25-hydroxyvitamin D important to tissue delivery for this activation process, but also that intact vitamin D has a pivotal role in this process. Objective: In this review, evidence on the vitamin D endocrine/autocrine system is presented and discussed in relation to vitamin D-binding protein affinity, circulating half-lives, and enzymatic transformations of vitamin D metabolites, and how these affect biological action in any given tissue. Conclusions: Circulating vitamin D, the parent compound, likely plays an important physiological role with respect to the vitamin D endocrine/autocrine system, as a substrate in many tissues, not originally thought to be important. Based on emerging data from the laboratory, clinical trials, and data on circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D amassed during many decades, it is likely that for the optimal functioning of these systems, significant vitamin D should be available on a daily basis to ensure stable circulating concentrations, implying that variation in vitamin D dosing schedules could have profound effects on the outcomes of clinical trials because of the short circulating half-life of intact vitamin D.

The demand for vitamin D analysis in veterinary species is increasing with the growing knowledge of the extra-skeletal role vitamin D plays in health and disease. The circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin-D (25(OH)D) metabolite is used to assess vitamin D status, and the benefits of analysing other metabolites in the complex vitamin D pathway are being discovered in humans. Profiling of the vitamin D pathway by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) facilitates simultaneous analysis of multiple metabolites in a single sample and over wide dynamic ranges, and this method is now considered the gold-standard for quantifying vitamin D metabolites. However, very few studies report using LC-MS/MS for the analysis of vitamin D metabolites in veterinary species. Given the complexity of the vitamin D pathway and the similarities in the roles of vitamin D in health and disease between humans and companion animals, there is a clear need to establish a comprehensive, reliable method for veterinary analysis that is comparable to that used in human clinical practice. In this review, we highlight the differences in vitamin D metabolism between veterinary species and the benefits of measuring vitamin D metabolites beyond 25(OH)D. Finally, we discuss the analytical challenges in profiling vitamin D in veterinary species with a focus on LC-MS/MS methods.

Abstract Abstract Context: The “free hormone” hypothesis suggests that the free 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHDFree) level may usefully indicate bone health. Objective: To determine which vitamin D measure is optimally correlated with clinical and bone parameters in healthy children. Design and Participants: A cross-sectional study including 146 healthy children (71 boys, 9.5±1.9 years) at a tertiary medical center. Main Outcome Measures: We used a multiplex liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry-based assay to simultaneously measure vitamin D metabolites. The 25OHDFree level was directly measured (m-25OHDFree) or calculated using genotype-constant or genotype-specific affinity coefficients of vitamin D-binding proteins (con-25OHDFree or spe-25OHDFree). Bone mineral content (BMC) and density (BMD) were assessed via dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Results: The concentrations of total 25OHD (25OHDTotal), the three forms of 25OHDFree, and 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 correlated with parathyroid hormone levels (all p<0.01). Serum 25OHDTotal and m-25OHDFree levels reflected age, puberty, season, body mass index (BMI), daylight hours, and vitamin D intake (all p<0.05). The con-25OHDFree level better reflected puberty and daylight hours than did the spe-25OHDFree level (both p<0.01). The association between the 25OHDTotal level and bone parameters varied according to the BMI (interaction p<0.05). In 109 normal-weight children, the con-25OHDFree level correlated with BMC and BMD (both p<0.05), but the 25OHDTotal and 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 levels were associated with BMC (both p<0.05). No association was found in overweight or obese children. Conclusions: In healthy children, total and free 25OHD levels comparably reflected lifestyle factors. In normal-weight children, the con-25OHDFree level reflected BMC and BMD, whereas the 25OHDTotal level was associated with BMC.

Abstract Context Vitamin D is classically recognized as a regulator of calcium and phosphorus metabolism. Recent advances in the measurement of vitamin D metabolites, diagnosis of vitamin D deficiency, and clinical observations have led to an appreciation that along with its role in skeletal metabolism, vitamin D may well have an important role in nonclassical settings. Measurement of the circulating form of vitamin D that best describes total body stores, namely 25-hydroxyvitamin D, can be unreliable despite many sophisticated methodologies that have been proposed and implemented. Likewise, evidence from clinical studies showing a beneficial role of vitamin D in different disease states has been controversial and at times speculative. Moreover, the target concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D to address a number of putative links between vitamin D inadequacy and nonskeletal diseases are further areas of uncertainty. Setting To address these issues, an international conference on “Controversies in Vitamin D” was held in Pisa, Italy, in June 2017. Three main topics were addressed: (i) vitamin D assays and the definition of hypovitaminosis D; (ii) skeletal and extraskeletal effects of vitamin D; (iii) therapeutics of vitamin D. Results This report provides a summary of the deliberations of the expert panels of the conference. Conclusions Despite great advances in our appreciation of vitamin D metabolism, measurements, biological actions on classical and nonclassical tissues, and therapeutics, all of which this report summarizes, much more work remains to be done so that our knowledge base can become even more secure.

Abstract Clinical interest to evaluate serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D[25(OH)D] to assess Vitamin D status in health risks continue to increase exponentially over the last decade. Variability of 25(OH)D measurements remains controversial despite the international initiative Vitamin D Standardization Program (VDSP) to standardise the assays. The aim of the present study was to examine the correlation of 25(OH)D concentrations measured by different assays. We measured 25(OH)D using the new Abbott Alinity and DiaSorin LiaisonXL chemiluminescence immunoassays against the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)-traceable liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method. The immunoassay method were compared with the LC-MS/MS using Passing-Bablok regression and Bland-Altman analysis. Common 25(OH)D cut-point for classification of vitamin D deficiency was used to compare the different assays. 125 adult serum samples were randomly selected and measured 25(OH)D levels ranged between <10 nmol/L to 290 nmol/L as determined by LC-MS/MS. Compared to the LC-MS/MS, both immunoassays demonstrated strong positive relationship based on Passing-Bablok regression analysis. The results were as follows: Abbott Alinity = 0.85x + 1.29nmol/L, 95% CI: -2.39 to 5.03 (r=0.94); DiaSorin LiaisonXL= 0.74x + 2.54nmol/L, 95% CI: -2.53 to 6.18 (r=0.91). Despite apparent good correlation, the overall mean bias was -12.6% for Abbott Alinity and -24.4% for DiaSorin LiaisonXL assays. A higher percentage of patients were classified as vitamin D deficient (25(OH)D <50 nmol/L) using DiaSorin LiaisonXL (53%) followed by Abbott Alinity (49%), when compared with LC-MS/MS (34%). Using 25(OH)D ≥ 50nmol/L as “adequate” determined by LC-MS/MS method, 22% (18/82) and 28% (23/82) of patients were classified as “deficient” when analysed on Abbott Alinity and DiaSorin LiaisonXL respectively. Clinician should be aware of the inter-method variability among different Vitamin D assays despite standardization efforts. These differences could be due to cross-reactivity with 25(OH)D2 and vitamin D metabolites, such as 24,25(OH)2D and epimeric forms. 3-epi-25(OH)D is not separated chromatographically by the LC-MS/MS method used in this study. Therefore, the negative bias observed might be due to interference from the 3-epi-25(OH)D, whereby clinical significance is uncertain. It is present in low concentrations in adult human serum, 1 but seen in significant amounts in neonatal serum.2 It is advisable to monitor serum 25(OH)D level following treatment in the same laboratory. 1.
