In vitro stimulation of phosphate uptake in isolated chick renal cells by 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol.
Renal cells isolated from vitamin D-deficient chicks had an increased Na+-dependent phosphate uptake when preincubated with 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol [1,25-(OH)2D3]. Phosphate uptake in the absence of Na+ and methyl alpha-glucoside uptake dependent on Na+ were not affected. Phosphate uptake was stimulated 15% by 0.010 pM 1,25-(OH)2D3. Maximal enhancement of 30% was obtained with 100 pM. The uptake when fully stimulated by preincubation in vitro approximated the uptake of cells isolated from chicks that were previously repleted with 1,25-(OH)2D3 in vivo. Cells from repleted chicks were not stimulated additionally when preincubated with 1,25-(OH)2D3 in vitro. The increase in phosphate uptake could be measured after a 1-hr preincubation period; full response required at least 2 hr. Phosphate uptake induced by 1,25-(OH)2D3 was blocked by cycloheximide and actinomycin D. Enhancement of phosphate uptake was relatively specific for the 1,25-(OH)2D3 analog of vitamin D3. The potency order was 1,25-(OH)2D3 greater than 25-(OH)D3 = 1-(OH)D3 greater than 24,25-(OH)2D3 greater than D3. Kinetically, 1,25-(OH)2D3 increased the Vmax of the phosphate uptake system; the affinity for phosphate was unaffected. 3H-Labeled 1,25-(OH)2D3 was taken up by the isolated renal cells. It was estimated that the stimulation of phosphate uptake might be initiated by very few molecules of 1,25-(OH)2D3 per cell. It is proposed that 1,25-(OH)2D3 contributes importantly to the mechanisms by which phosphate transport is regulated in the kidney.
