In this work we have studied the action of the trihydroxylated vitamin D metabolite (1 alpha, 24 R,25(OH)3D3) on parathyrin secretion by isolated parathyroid cells. In contrast with the results obtained with mono and dihydroxylated vitamin D, 1 alpha, 24 R,25(OH)3D3 increased the secretion of parathyrin. The effective concentration of this metabolite was 1.54 X 10(-9)M for cells rat and 1.54 X 10(-10)M for human cells.

We have previously discussed the action of 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3, (24R) 24,25-(OH)2 D3 and (25S) 25,26-(OH)2D3 on parathyrin secretion by isolated rat parathyroid cells. In this work, we have compared these effects with those obtained with 1 alpha-OH D3, 25-OH D3 and 1 alpha-OH D2. In decreasing order, the activities were: 1 alpha,25-(OH)2D3 greater than 1 alpha-OH D3 greater than (24R) 24,25-(OH)2D3 greater than 25-OH D3 greater than (25S) 25,26(OH)2D3 greater than 1 alpha-OH D2. The presence of two hydroxyl groups with one hydroxyl group in alpha position seems to have the higher activity to inhibit the parathyroid secretion. At least, the nature of the side chain conformation also plays a part upon the effect of PTH release.
