Biological Activity

[Description]:

Calcifediol (monohydrate) is a major circulating metabolite of vitamin D3, acting as a competitive inhibitor with an apparent Ki of 3.9 μM, suppresses PTH secretion and mRNA (ED50=2 nM).

[In Vitro]

Calcifediol in either liposomes or ethanolic solution has no effect on the release of the proinflammatory cytokine KC from Pseudomonas-infected murine epithelial cells. Treatment of infected, human bronchial 16-HBE cells with Calcifediol liposomes results in a significant reduction in bacterial survival[1].
