| Targets |
(1S)-Calcitriol acts as a ligand for the Vitamin D Receptor (VDR). It exhibits potent VDR-mediated actions, such as the inhibition of keratinocyte growth and the suppression of parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion. It is distinguished from calcitriol by having reduced calcemic activity, meaning it has less effect on raising serum calcium levels.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
3‐epi‐Calcitroic acid is the final product of rat CYP24A1's metabolism of (1S)‐Calcitriol (1α,25‑Dihydroxy‑3‑epi‑vitamin‑D3; 3‑epi‑1a,25(OH)2D3)[1].
(1S)-Calcitriol is a potent suppressor of parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion and keratinocyte growth. As a 3-epimer, it displays a unique biological profile: it retains many VDR-mediated genomic actions, such as cell growth inhibition, but has a significantly lower impact on calcium mobilization (calcemic activity) compared to its parent compound, calcitriol. |
| ln Vivo |
(1S)-Calcitriol is a natural metabolite found in the body. It has been studied in vivo for its ability to suppress PTH secretion, making it a potential candidate for treating secondary hyperparathyroidism in chronic kidney disease (CKD) without causing dangerous elevations in blood calcium levels.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Cell-free VDR binding assays are performed by incubating the vitamin D receptor (VDR) with radiolabeled 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 and varying concentrations of the competing (1S)-Calcitriol. After incubation, bound and free ligands are separated, and the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) is determined.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays are performed using keratinocytes to assess growth inhibition. Human keratinocytes are treated with (1S)-Calcitriol for 48-96 hours. Cell proliferation is quantified by measuring DNA synthesis (3H-thymidine incorporation) or via a standard colorimetric MTT cell viability assay to determine the half-maximal effective concentration (EC50) for growth suppression.

| Animal Protocol |
In vivo data is not available for this research compound. As a laboratory chemical for cell-based and in vitro studies, it is not typically formulated for animal pharmacokinetic or efficacy studies in a standard research setting.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic (PK) properties are not documented. As a laboratory chemical primarily for in vitro use, ADME (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion) data are not typically required or reported.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The toxicological profile of (1S)-Calcitriol is characterized by its reduced calcemic effect. Unlike calcitriol, which can cause hypercalcemia and hypercalciuria at therapeutic doses, the 3-epimer offers a wider therapeutic window by maintaining suppressive effects on PTH without elevating serum calcium levels to a toxic range.

| Additional Infomation |
(1S)-Calcitriol is the C-3 epimer of the active vitamin D hormone, calcitriol. It is a valuable research compound for developing "non-calcemic" vitamin D analogs. Its potential application lies in treating conditions that benefit from VDR activation, such as psoriasis and hyperparathyroidism, without the dose-limiting toxicities associated with calcium metabolism. It is for research use only.
