Abstract

Osteoblast Ca2+ channels play a fundamental role in controlling intracellular and systemic Ca2+ homeostasis. A reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction strategy was used to determine the molecular identity of voltage-sensitive calcium channels present in ROS 17/2.8 osteosarcoma cells. The amino acid sequences encoded by the two resultant PCR products matched the alpha1C-a and the alpha1C-d isoforms. The ability of 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) and structural analogs to modulate expression of voltage-sensitive calcium channel mRNA transcripts was then investigated. ROS 17/2.8 cells were cultured for 48 h in the presence of either 1,25(OH)2D3,1,24-dihydroxy-22-ene-24-cyclopropyl D3 (analog BT) or 25-hydroxy-16-ene-23-yne-D3 (analog AT), and the levels of mRNA encoding alpha1C were quantitated using a competitive reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction assay. We found that 1, 25(OH)2D3 and analog BT reduced steady state levels of alpha1C mRNA. Conversely, the Ca2+-mobilizing analog AT did not alter steady state levels of voltage-sensitive calcium channel mRNA. Since analog BT, but not analog AT, binds and transcriptionally activates the nuclear receptor for 1,25(OH)2D3, these findings suggest that the down...Continue Reading
