Increases in intracellular and mitochondrial calcium content that accompany ischemic and toxic acute renal failure have been suggested to mediate renal tubular cell injury and dysfunction, but the mechanism(s) are unknown. We studied the effects of in vivo vitamin D-induced chronic hypercalcemia on rat renal cortical brush-border and basolateral membranes and mitochondria. In the brush-border membrane, hypercalcemia caused significant decreases in alkaline phosphatase-specific activity, total phospholipid molar content, and phosphatidylserine percent molar composition and increases in the cholesterol-to-total phospholipid molar ratio and phosphatidylinositol percent molar composition. In the basolateral membrane, hypercalcemia caused significant decreases in Na+-K+-ATPase-specific activity and total phospholipid molar content and increases in the cholesterol-to-total phospholipid molar ratio and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate percent molar composition. In the mitochondria, hypercalcemia caused a mild increase in the mitochondrial calcium content, but no alterations in succinic dehydrogenase-specific activity, succinate-, ADP-, or uncoupler-induced respiration. Thus hypercalcemia caused alterations in brush-border and basolateral membrane enzyme activity and lipid composition, but no functional changes were detected in mitochondria. These hypercalcemia-induced plasma membrane biochemical alterations may be markers of early cell injury and suggest a role for calcium in causing or predisposing to renal tubular cell injury.

Intestinal brush borders prepared from vitamin D-deficient rats demonstrate increased susceptibility in vitro to fragmentation by shear forces or to loss of microvillus enzymes on treatment with EDTA. These effects are relatively nonspecific and are also observed in normal rats starved for 48 h. They may underlie prior observations that purport to demonstrate a vitamin D-dependent increase in brush border Ca-dependent ATPase. In addition, however, vitamin D increases ATPase activity dependent on certain divalent cations, including Ca and Zn, in whole-particulate suspensions pelleted by high-speed centrifugation of mucosal homogenates. This action is independent of changes in other microvillus enzymes, i.e. disaccharidases, and tissue distribution and cation specificity studies support the hypothesis that the mucosal whole-particulate ATPase is related to transport of Ca, Zn, and possibly other divalent cations.

Osteoblasts and osteocytes in adult thyroparathyroidectomized (T(x)PT(x)) rats fed a low calcium vitamin D-free diet and given parathyroid (PTH) had ultrastructural evidence of increased activity compared to controls. Osteoblasts in PTH-treated rats had prominent rough endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatuses and large mitochondria. The plasma membranes were extensively convoluted and associated with initial loci of mineralization in osteoid. Osteocytes contained increased rough endoplasmic reticulum, well-developed Golgi apparatuses and large mitochondria. Lacunar walls were roughened, but osteocytic osteolysis was not observed. Osteoclasts were encountered more frequently in PTH-treated rats, but their ultrastructural features were similar to those of controls. Osteoblasts and osteocytes in controls appeared to be inactive cells lining quiescent mineral surfaces. Parathyroid hormone treatment increased serum calcium levels and urinary hydroxyproline excretion, indicating enhanced resorption of bone mineral and matrix. Bone alkaline phosphatase and calcium-adenosine triphosphatase activities were elevated after PTH treatment and may be related to increased calcium transport by bone cells. These findings were interpreted to suggest that PTH mobilizes bone mineral by osteoclasis and increases metabolic activity of the osteocyte-osteoblast pump.

When compared to that from sham-operated controls, sarcoplasmic reticulum isolated from skeletal muscle of uremic rabbits had a lower rate of calcium uptake and storing capacity. In vivo administration of 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol [1,25(OH)2D3] restored the values in uremic animals toward normal. To obtain information about the mechanisms responsible for these differences, phosphorylation of the calcium transport ATPase was studied. The steady-state levels of phosphoprotein in uremic membranes were lower and returned to normal when the secosteroid was administered. Electrophoresis of the membranes phosphorylated with 32P-inosine triphosphate (32P-ITP) showed that the differences were related to a 100,000 dalton protein. The rate of phosphoprotein formation, determined with 32P-ITP and at 0 degrees C, was considerably lower in uremic than in control animals. Pretreatment with 1,25(OH)2D3 prevented this change. The hypothesis is advanced that the vitamin D metabolite affects the steady-state concentration and rate constant of formation of active sites in the Ca-ATPase. These results may partly explain the altered Ca transport function of the sarcoplasmic reticulum in experimental uremia.

A particulate fraction of rat intestinal mucosal homogenates, termed the "calcium-binding complex," contains three vitamin D-dependent activities: calcium binding of high affinity, calcium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase, and p-nitrophenylphosphatase. These particulate activities vary concordantly with intestinal calcium transport, suggesting that they represent membrane components of the translocation mechanism. The particulate was solubilized with 1-butanol and the activities were resolved partially by gel filtration and by DEAE-cellulose and spheroidal hydroxyl-apatite column chromatography. The Ca-binding activity was separated from the enzymes and isolated as a protein of molecular weight approximately 200,000, as estimated by gel filtration in 0.1% Triton X-100. The membrane protein, named IMCal (intestinal membrane calcium-binding protein), was dissociated with sodium dodecyl sulfate to yield a monomer of molecular weight 20,500 which is clearly distinguishable from the soluble calcium-binding protein (molecular weight 11,500) of rat mucosa. The apparent dissociation constants of Ca2+ of IMCal and of the soluble calcium-binding protein were estimated as 0.37 microM and 2.25 microM, respectively. The vitamin D-dependent activities of the calcium-binding complex are present in isolated intestinal microvillus membranes and may mediate the translocation of calcium from the intestinal lumen to the cytosol.

The adenylate cyclase activation by bovine synthetic parathyroid hormone (bPTH) (1-34) was studied in vitro in kidney plasma membranes from D-deficient (D-Mb) or normal (D+Mb) rats. In D-Mb, the apparent affinity of parathyroid hormone (PTH) for membranes (170 +/- 30 nM) was significantly higher than that measured in D+Mb (55 +/- 5 nM). The maximum velocity of the PTH-stimulated adenylate cyclase was significantly higher in D+Mb than in D-Mb (163.0 +/- 13.7 and 93.4 +/- 6.7 pmol of cAMP/mg of protein/min, respectively). The action of vitamin D metabolites on the adenylate cyclase stimulation by PTH was then studied in vitro in D-Mb and D+Mb. In D-Mb, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, 24,25-, and 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 significantly inhibited cAMP production in the presence of 0.87 microM of bPTH. Vitamin D3 had no effect. Maximal inhibition (86%) was observed for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 decreased the maximum velocity of PTH-stimulated adenylate cyclase but did not modify the bPTH apparent affinity for D-Mb. The vitamin D3 metabolites tested did not modify the cyclase stimulation by isoproterenol, sodium fluoride, or 5'-guanylylimidodiphosphate. The presence of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 or 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 did not increase the (Na-K)-ATPase or the phosphodiesterase activities. In the presence of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and bPTH, the apparent affinity of ATP for the catalytic moiety was not modified. The maximum velocity was decreased. These results suggest an in vitro interaction between hydroxylated vitamin D metabolites and kidney membranes PTH receptor.

Basolateral plasma membrane vesicles of rat small intestinal epithelium accumulate calcium through an ATP-dependent pumping system. The activity of this system is highest in duodenum and decreases towards the ileum. This distribution along the intestinal tract is similar as the active calcium absorption capacity of intact intestinal epithelial segments. ATP-dependent calcium uptake in basolateral membrane vesicles from duodenum and ileum increased significantly after repletion of young vitamin D-3-deficient rats with 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D-3. Ca2+ -ATPase activity in duodenal basolateral membranes increased to the same extend as ATP-dependent calcium transport, but (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity remained unaltered.

The effects of vitamin D-3 on calcium and phosphate transport in skeletal muscle plasma membranes were studied. Sarcolemma vesicles were isolated from vitamin D-deficient and vitamin D-treated (one week) chicks by sucrose density gradient centrifugation of a crude muscle plasma membrane fraction. Measurement of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity, cholesterol to phospholipid molar ratios and levels of intracellular marker enzymes showed a high degree of purification of the preparations. Administration of vitamin D-3 significantly increased active Ca2+ and phosphate uptake into the vesicles. The efflux of both ions from preloaded vesicles was only slightly altered by the sterol. Ca2+-ATPase activity was higher in sarcolemma from treated animals. This confirms that the effects of vitamin D-3 on calcium transport are related to the Ca2+ pump and not to the passive permeability properties of the membrane. No changes in the protein composition of vesicles from both experimental groups were observed. However, treatment with vitamin D-3 increased sphingomyelin and phosphatidylcholine concentrations. These changes in lipid structure may play a role in the effects of vitamin D-3 on transport characteristics of sarcolemma.

Calcium ATPase, an enzyme involved in intestinal calcium transport, was measured in homogenates of duodenal mucosal scrapings of normal and uremic rats. The effects of calcium deprivation and treatment with 1 alpha,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol [1,25-(OH)2D3] were investigated as well. Uremia decreased the enzyme activity and impaired the rise after calcium deprivation as observed in intact rats. The 1,25-(OH)2D3 treatment increased the enzyme activity in uremic animals and resulted in an identical response to calcium deprivation as observed in intact rats; parathyroidectomy abolished this effect. A striking correlation between everted duodenal gut sac calcium transport and calcium ATPase activity could be demonstrated for all groups of rats studied. It is concluded that the calcium ATPase activity is linked to the production of 1,25-(OH)2D3 as well as to an additional factor, probably parathyroid hormone. The close relationship between enzyme activity and in vitro calcium transport, even during constant physiological supplementation with 1,25-(OH)2D3, suggests an autonomous role of the calcium ATPase activity for mediation of calcium transport in the duodenum in addition to the well-known mechanisms related to vitamin D and its metabolites.

Effects of high doses of vitamin D on rat hearts were investigated 72 h after the administration of 500 000 U/kg. Histological examination showed disseminated focal necrosis with reactive round cell and granulocytic infiltration in the heart. The calcium content was increased by about 70%. These findings indicate vitamin D-induced myocardial lesions. Heart mitochondrial calcium binding and uptake activities were lower than in control animals. Na+-K+-ATPase activity of heart washed particles was reduced by the treatment with vitamin D whereas neither calcium binding and uptake activities of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum nor myofibrillar ATPase activity were affected. Carbocromen (20 and 100 mg/kg/d) treatment reduced vitamin D-induced decreases in mitochondrial calcium accumulating ability and Na+-K+-ATPase activity of heart washed particle, suggesting a beneficial effect of carbocromen against vitamin D-induced cardiac injury.
