Metabolism of tritiated vitamin D

Abstract: Methods of labelling calciferol in specified positions with tritium have been investigated with the purpose of selecting a stable and highly radioactive compound for metabolic studies. [3 α - 3 H]Ergocalciferol and [24, 25, 26, 27- 3 H 9 ]-, [7- 3 H]-, [6- 3 H]- and [1 α - 3 H]-cholecalciferol have been prepared and the e… Show more

“…From the present and previous data (5,8), it is obvious that it is no longer correct to assume that antirachitic activity of plasma is synonymous with unaltered vitamin D3. Clearly, much of the antirachitic effectiveness must be attributed to a polar metabolite of vitamin D (peak 4, Figure 2) that is easily separated on silicic acid from the unaltered vitamin.…”

“…The steroid was administered intravenously with the subject in the fasting state in the morning over a period of approximately 30 to 45 seconds. Fifteen-to 20-ml samples of heparinized blood were collected at 5, 15, 30, and 45 minutes and at 1,2,4,8,12,16, and 24 hours. For the subsequent 24 hours plasma was obtained at 12-hour intervals.…”

“…Radioautographs of bone obtained after radioactive vitamin D injection demonstrate localized radioactivity in'the cytoplasm of chondrocytes in the proliferating cartilage zone of growing bone (26); experiments by Lund and DeLuca (9,13) reveal that the peak 4 metabolite represents the majority of radioactivity in rat bone while vitamin D, itself, is present in only small amounts. Furthermore, the peak 4 metabolite has been shown to be as biologically active as the parent vitamin in curing rickets in rats (9,12).…”
