Vitamin D -- induced changes in the renal membrane ATPase system.
Ca-dependent and Mg-dependent ATPase activity was found to be depressed significantly in renal membrane preparations from vitamin D-deficient as compared to normal rats. Administratiin of 2000 i.u. vitamin D2 to deficient rats 30 hours before sacrifice restored the membrane enzyme activity to normal. ATP binding by enzymes was also reduced in vitamin D deficiency and raised by repletion. Vitamin D may therefore be required for normal Ca-and Mg-dependent ATPase activity.
