| Targets |
Eldecalcitol binds to the vitamin D receptor (VDR) with less affinity than 1,25(OH)2D3 but binds to vitamin D-binding protein with higher affinity, resulting in a long half-life in plasma. It is an analog of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 that improves bone mineral density. Its anti-tumor effects are mediated by suppressing GPx-1.

| ln Vitro |
Eldecalcitol is non-cytotoxic and can decrease LPS (5 μg/mL)-induced cell death (0.5–50 nM; 24 hours) [2]. By activating Eldecalcitol (0.5-50 nM; 24 h), Eldecalcitol (5 nM; 24 h) exhibits anti-pyroptotic ability and induces dose-wise decrease of NLRP3, caspase-1, and IL. LPS-induced pyroptosis is inhibited by Nrf2 and its effector molecule HO-1[2]. Eldecalcitol (0.04–40 nM; 0-48 h) prevents SCC-15 and CAL-27 cells from proliferating and migrating [3]. Cell cycle curve expression at -1β is induced by edecalcitol (0.4 nM; 48 h) [3]. G0/G1 phase, as well as by preventing cells from expressing glutathione peroxidase, or GPx-1 [3].
In vitro, eldecalcitol displays anti-tumor effects, inhibiting cell proliferation and migration and inducing apoptosis by suppressing GPx-1. It inhibits bone resorption in cell-based models. It has a strong inhibitory effect on bone resorption and causes a significant increase in bone mineral density. |
| ln Vivo |
By inhibiting GPx-1 (glutathione peroxidase), eldecalcitol (0.5 μg/kg; channel; twice weekly for 4 weeks) has anticancer effects [3]. Eldecalcitol, a more potent vitamin D3 analogue that promotes focal bone (miniature model) and is more efficient than bone Chetriol in inhibiting bone resorption, (10, 30, or 90 ng/kg; lateral; 5 times weekly for 12 weeks).
In vivo, eldecalcitol is effective in increasing bone mass and enhancing bone strength in rodents. It is more efficacious than alfacalcidol in preventing vertebral and wrist fractures in osteoporotic patients with vitamin D sufficiency. It has a safety profile similar to alfacalcidol. It is an orally active agent. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro receptor binding assays for eldecalcitol typically involve evaluating its affinity for the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and vitamin D-binding protein (DBP) using radioligand binding or surface plasmon resonance (SPR). Competitive binding assays are performed with varying concentrations of the compound. Binding affinity (Ki or Kd) values are calculated from displacement curves.

Western Blot analysis [2]
Cell Types: Human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) Tested Concentrations: 0, 0.5, 5 and 50 nM Incubation Duration: 24 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: Compared with LPS treatment group, TLR4, NLRP3, caspase-1 p20, ASC and GSDMD-N levels were diminished in a dose-dependent manner. LPS-induced IL-1β and IL-18 release was diminished to normal levels. Cell proliferation assay [3] Cell Types: SCC-15 and CAL-27 Cell Tested Concentrations: 0, 0.04, 0.4, 4 and 40 nM Incubation Duration: 6, 8, 12, 24, 48 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: Inhibition of cell viability using 0.4 nM , OSCC cells reached 50% within 24 hrs (hours). Cell proliferation analysis [3] Cell Types: OSCC Cell Tested Concentrations: 0.4 nM Incubation Duration: 48 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: The proportion of late-stage apoptotic cells increased from 7.1% to 16.1%. Bax and caspase-3 were upregulated, and Bcl-2 was downregulated. Dramatically triggers apoptosis of SCC-15 and CAL-27 cells. Cell-based assays for eldecalcitol involve culturing osteoblasts, osteoclasts, or cancer cell lines in appropriate media. Cells are treated with eldecalcitol at concentrations ranging from 0.1 nM to 1 µM for 24-72 hours. Cell proliferation is assessed by MTT or BrdU incorporation. Osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption are measured by TRAP staining and pit formation assays. Apoptosis is evaluated by flow cytometry. |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Mouse xenograft tumor model (male athymic nude BALB/c mouse) [3]
Doses: 0.5 μg/kg Route of Administration: po (oral gavage); [4]. Twice a week for 4 weeks. Experimental Results: diminished tumor growth rate, down-regulated the expression levels of PCNA and MMP-2 in tumors, and up-regulated Bax expression. Resulting in diminished proliferation, inhibition of migration, and promotion of apoptosis. Animal/Disease Models: Ovariectomized (OVX) rat model [4] Doses: 10, 30 or 90 ng/kg Route of Administration: po (oral gavage); 5 times per week for 12 weeks Experimental Results: Lumbar spine and femur BMD in a dose-dependent manner way increased. The stimulation of local bone formation begins without prior bone resorption, a process called bone micromodelling. In vivo animal experiments for eldecalcitol typically involve administration to ovariectomized rat models of osteoporosis via oral gavage. Bone mineral density is measured by DEXA. Bone strength is assessed by mechanical testing. Fracture healing and bone turnover markers are evaluated. Anti-tumor efficacy is evaluated in xenograft mouse models. Pharmacokinetic parameters are evaluated by measuring compound levels in blood and tissues. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Eldecalcitol (molecular weight ~500) is orally active. It binds to vitamin D-binding protein with higher affinity than 1,25(OH)2D3, resulting in a long half-life in plasma. It is metabolized in the liver and excreted via bile and urine. Detailed pharmacokinetic parameters are available in clinical pharmacology literature. It supports once-daily dosing.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Eldecalcitol has a safety profile similar to alfacalcidol. Common side effects may include hypercalcemia, gastrointestinal effects, and skin reactions. It is contraindicated in patients with hypercalcemia or vitamin D toxicity. Comprehensive toxicological evaluation has been conducted in preclinical and clinical studies. It is generally well-tolerated in clinical settings.

| Additional Infomation |
1α,25-Dihydroxy-2β-(3-hydroxypropoxy)vitamin D3 is a hydroxycalcitrol, specifically calcitriol with a 3-hydroxypropoxy group at the 2-position. It is a metabolite. It is a tetraol, belonging to the vitamin D3 family, and is also a hydroxycalcitrol. It is functionally related to calcitriol. In an estrogen-deficient rat model of osteoporosis, the vitamin D analog edicalcium (ED-71) was more effective than alfacalcidol in inhibiting bone resorption. Edicalcium effectively and safely increased bone mineral density (BMD) in the lumbar spine and hip of osteoporotic patients receiving concurrent vitamin D3 supplementation. [Pharmaceutical Indications] [Studied for the treatment of osteoporosis.]
Mechanism of Action Edecalciferol [1α,25-dihydroxy-2β-(3-hydroxypropoxy)vitamin D3] is an analog of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3], with a hydroxypropoxy residue at the 2β position. Edecalciferol can effectively increase bone mass and enhance bone strength in rodents. It has a lower affinity for the vitamin D receptor (VDR) than 1,25(OH)2D, but a higher affinity for vitamin D-binding proteins, thus exhibiting a longer half-life in plasma. Eldecalcitol (CAS#: 104121-92-8) is an orally active vitamin D3 analogue for osteoporosis treatment. It inhibits bone resorption and increases bone mineral density. It also displays anti-tumor effects. It binds to VDR and DBP. It is approved for osteoporosis in Japan and other countries. |
