Calcifediol monohydrate (25-hydroxy Vitamin D3 monohydrate; 25(OH)D3) is a potent ligand for the vitamin D receptor (VDR) with gene regulatory and anti-proliferative properties, and functions as a vitamin D supplement and a VDR antagonist. As a precursor hormone in the vitamin D endocrine system (VDES), calcifediol undergoes hydroxylation in the liver to form the active hormone, calcitriol. This form of vitamin D can rapidly increase serum vitamin D levels [1-3].
Calcifediol monohydrate (100nM; 24h) decreased amyloid-β (Aβ)-production and increased Aβ-degradation in neuroblastoma cells. Effects were mediated by affecting the Aβ-producing enzymes BACE1 and γ-secretase [4]. Calcifediol monohydrate(10−5M) can induce a rapid increase in Ca2+ levels in hADMSCs cells in vitro [5].
Calcifediol monohydrate (5µg/kg, 100µL; 7 times; i.p)significantly protected mice against DNCB-induced AD. Calcifediol monohydrate may reduce inflammatory cell infiltration and chemokines by inhibiting the phosphorylation of STAT3 and may restore skin barrier function through the downregulation of AQP3 protein expression and inhibition of cell proliferation in In AD mouse model [6]. After viral attack, mice supplemented with Calcifediol monohydrate(125mg/kg; p.o; 7 weeks) stimulated the production of both anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory cytokines [7].

Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models |
Atopic dermatitis (AD) mice model (Female BALB/c mice) |
Preparation Method |
The AD mice model was induced by using DNCB. 1% DNCB was applied once a day to the ears (5μL) of AD-induced mice on days 6, 10, 14, and 18. The treatment was started on the day of challenge (day 6) with an intraperitoneal injection of 100µL Calcifediol monohydrate(5µg/kg). Each dose was given once every two days for a total of seven doses. |
