Induction of macrophage differentiation of human normal and leukemic myeloid stem cells by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and its fluorinated analogues.
    Cancer research, 1984, Volume: 44, Issue:12 Pt 1

    This study shows for the first time that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3[1,25-(OH)2D3] and two fluorinated analogues of 1,25-(OH)2D3 [24,24-F2-1,25-(OH)2D3 and 26, 26, 26, 27, 27, 27-F6-1,25-(OH)2D3] induce macrophage differentiation of human normal and leukemic myeloid stem cells. The addition of either 1,25-(OH)2D3 or one of the two fluorinated analogues of 1,25-(OH)2D3 at concentrations as low as 10(-9) M to culture plates containing normal human marrow cells stimulated myeloid stem cells to preferentially differentiate to colonies of monocytes and macrophages. Over 80% of the normal human myeloid colonies were composed of only monocytes and macrophages in culture plates containing 10(-7) M 1,25-(OH)2D3 or one of the fluorinated analogues. In contrast, control plates not containing 1,25-(OH)2D3 had less than 35% macrophage colonies. Likewise, 1,25-(OH)2D3 and the two vitamin D analogues induced macrophage differentiation of leukemic colony-forming cells taken from patients. In plates containing 10(-7) M 1,25-(OH)2D3 or one of the analogues at 10(-8) M, 80% of chronic myelogenous leukemia and approximately 50% of acute nonlymphocytic leukemia colony-forming cells differentiated to macrophage-like cells. In contrast, control plates had about 30 and 20% macrophage colonies in cultures from chronic myelogenous leukemia and acute nonlymphocytic leukemia patients, respectively. Our findings suggest that 1,25-(OH)2D3 may play a role in hematopoiesis and that the compound or a related analogue may possibly have a therapeutic role in some leukemias.

Biological activity of 24,24-difluoro-1 alpha, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and 1 alpha, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone in inducing differentiation of human myeloid leukemia cells.
    Archives of biochemistry and biophysics, 1983, Volume: 220, Issue:1

    Vitamin D compounds added to the culture medium induce differentiation of human myeloid leukemia cells (HL-60 cells) by binding to a specific cytosol receptor protein. This system provides a biologically relevant and technically simple assay to examine the relationship between molecular structure and biological activity of vitamin D compounds. Using this culture system, the biological activity of 24,24-F2-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 and 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone was assayed. 24,24-F2-1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 was four to seven times more potent than 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 in inducing phagocytosis and C3 rosette formation of HL-60 cells, though both compounds bound equally well to the cytosol receptor, suggesting that the defuorination at the 24-carbon position may stimulate membrane permeability of the compound. 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3-26,23-lactone, on the other hand, was only 1/200th as active as 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3. The binding affinity of the lactone for the cytosol receptor was identical with that of 1 alpha (OH)D3, suggesting that the lactone formation between the 26 and 23 positions masks the function of the 25-hydroxyl group. The binding affinity of vitamin D3 derivatives to the specific cytosol receptor of HL-60 cells was well correlated with that of intestinal cytosol protein specifically bound to 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3.
