Until recently measurement of 25-0H-D r Ia-hydroxylase activity in mammalian kidney has not been possible due to the presence of a protein which inhibits the enzyme by reducing available substrate. However, utilization of sufficient unlabeled 25-0H-D 3 (80 nmol/ml renal homogenate) to overcome the e

Previously, activities of enzymes that hydroxylate vitamin D and its metabolites have been determined by measurement of radioactive metabolites produced from a radioactive substrate. However, sensitive ultraviolet absorbance detectors used with high-performance liquid chromatographic systems provide
In 1974, a 2-year-old boy was diagnosed as having X-linked hypophosphataemic rickets (XLH) because of severe rickets and hypophosphataemia. The vitamin D metabolite concentrations, blood and urine chemistry and renal 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25OHD3)-1 alpha-hydroxylase were measured in 1982 (about 2 we
A sensitive and precise method is described to assay cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase activity in homogenates of rat hepatocytes cultured in monolayers for up to 76 h. The assay is based on measurement of the amount of radioactive cholesterol converted into 7 alpha-[14C]-hydroxycholesterol. Since no
Effects of 1.28 nmol/kg doxercalciferol [1"(OH)D 2 ], a synthetic vitamin D 2 analog that undergoes metabolic activation to 1",25-dihydroxyvitamin D 2 , the naturally occurring, biologically active form of vitamin D 2 , on rat transporters and enzymes were compared with those of 1",25-dihydroxyvitam
