1(ALPHA) 25-DIHYDROXYVITAMIN D2* Usage And Synthesis

Uses

The active metabolite of Vitamin D2 (V676040).

Uses

This product may be used as an analytical standard.

Definition

ChEBI: A hydroxycalciol that is vitamin D2 bearing additional hydroxy substituents at positions 1alpha and 25.

General Description

1α,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D₂?is an active form of vitamin D₂. It is also known as ercalcitriol or 1α,25-dihydroxyergocalciferol. It was first isolated from mitochondria of chick kidney.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ergocalciferol (vitamin D2) is activated in vivo by hydroxylation to 25-hydroxyergocalciferol and 1α,25-dihydroxycalciferol. Activated Vitamin D2 molecules may be used in a wide range of studies to assess their effects on functions such as immune function and calcium homeostasis.
