title: Insulin-like growth factor I, a unique calcium-dependent stimulator of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 production. Studies in cultured mouse kidney cells.
abstract: Previous in vivo and in vitro studies suggest that insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) could be a regulator of the renal production of 1,25-(OH)2D3. In the present work, the local effect of low nanomolar concentrations of IGF-I on the 25-OH-D3-1 alpha-hydroxylase activity and the mechanism of its action have been investigated. To do so, an in vitro model of mouse proximal tubular cells in primary culture has been developed. These cells bear specific high affinity IGF-I binding sites (apparent Kd = 1.95 +/- 0.46 nM) and express the ability to convert [3H]25-(OH)D3 into [3H]1,25-(OH)2D3 (Km = 139 +/- 15.7 nM). Human recombinant IGF-I (10-100 ng/ml) stimulated both sodium-dependent phosphate uptake and 1,25-(OH)2D3 synthesis by these cells, in a time- and dose-dependent manner. IGF-I did not alter the apparent Michaelis constant but increased the maximum velocity of the 25-OH-D3-1 alpha-hydroxylase activity. This effect required protein synthesis. It was not affected by calphostin or GF109203X, two protein kinase C inhibitors, and was not mimicked by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. In contrast, it was blocked by verapamil, a calcium channel blocker. Calcium depletion of the medium blunted the IGF-I effect but not that of human 1-34 parathyroid hormone 5 x 10(-8) M. IGF-I thus appears to be the first example of a physiological calcium-dependent regulator of the renal metabolism of vitamin D.
