Description

Cholecalciferol is a naturally occurring form of vitamin D which is obtained from dietary sources, such as fish, or through the conversion of 7-dehydrocholesterol by ultraviolet light. It is subsequently metabolized to 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 and the active form 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 by cytochrome P450 isoforms in the liver. It could prevent proliferation of cancer cells.

Toxicity

Carcinogenicity No indication of carcinogenicity to humans (not listed by IARC).
Mechanism Of Toxicity The first step involved in the activation of vitamin D3 is a 25-hydroxylation which is catalysed by the 25-hydroxylase in the liver and then by other enzymes. The mitochondrial sterol 27-hydroxylase catalyses the first reaction in the oxidation of the side chain of sterol intermediates. The active form of vitamin D3 (calcitriol) binds to intracellular receptors that then function as transcription factors to modulate gene expression. Like the receptors for other steroid hormones and thyroid hormones, the vitamin D receptor has hormone-binding and DNA-binding domains. The vitamin D receptor forms a complex with another intracellular receptor, the retinoid-X receptor, and that heterodimer is what binds to DNA. In most cases studied, the effect is to activate transcription, but situations are also known in which vitamin D suppresses transcription. Calcitriol increases the serum calcium concentrations by: increasing GI absorption of phosphorus and calcium, increasing osteoclastic resorption, and increasing distal renal tubular reabsorption of calcium. Calcitriol appears to promote intestinal absorption of calcium through binding to the vitamin D receptor in the mucosal cytoplasm of the intestine. Subsequently, calcium is absorbed through formation of a calcium-binding protein.

OBJECTIVES: Orthostatic hypotension is a common condition among older adults and is associated with a range of deleterious outcomes. Recently, interest has developed in hypovitaminosis D (defined as low 25 hydroxiyvitamin D levels) as a potential risk factor for orthostatic hypotension. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis examining the association of orthostatic hypotension between study participants with and without hypovitaminosis D, including the adjustment of potential confounders (age, sex, BMI, renal function, comorbidities, seasonality, use of antihypertensive medications, and supplementation with cholecalciferol).

Assessment of total vitamin D intake from foods and dietary supplements (DSs) may be incomplete if 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] intake is not included. However, 25(OH)D data for such intake assessments are lacking, no food or DS reference materials (RMs) are available, and comparison of laboratory performance has been needed. The primary goal of this study was to evaluate whether vitamin D3 and 25(OH)D3 concentrations in food and DS materials could be measured with acceptable reproducibility. Five experienced laboratories from the United States and other countries participated, all using liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry but no common analytical protocol; however, various methods were used for determining vitamin D3 in the DS. Five animal-based materials (including three commercially available RMs) and one DS were analyzed. Reproducibility results for the materials were acceptable. Thus, it is possible to obtain consistent results among experienced laboratories for vitamin D3 and 25(OH)D3 in foods and a DS.
4.Evaluation of responses to vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) in patients on dialysis: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Vitamin D plays a key role in mineral metabolism and its deficiency is often noted in patients on dialysis for end-stage renal disease (ESRD). We evaluated the efficacy and responses to vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) in patients undergoing dialysis for ESRD. Randomized controlled trials or prospective studies comparing vitamin D3 supplementation to placebo in patients with ESRD on dialysis were searched from medical databases using the terms, 'Calcitriol/Cholecalciferol, vitamin D, chronic kidney disease, hemodialysis, serum calcium, parathyroid hormones (PTH), phosphorus, 25(OH)D, and 1,25(OH)2D'. The outcomes analyzed were serum calcium, PTH, phosphorus, 25(OH)D, and 1,25(OH)2D levels. Of the 259 records identified, 9 studies with a total of 368 patients were chosen for the current meta-analysis. The number of patients, age, and gender distribution among the groups were comparable. Results reveal a greater increase in both 25(OH)D (Pooled difference in means=0.
