Intestinal Cyp24a1 regulates vitamin D locally independent of systemic regulation by renal Cyp24a1 in mice.

ABSTRACT: Vitamin D regulates mineral homeostasis. The most biologically active form of vitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25D), is synthesized by CYP27B1 from 25-dihydroxyvitamin D (25D) and is inactivated by CYP24A1. Human monogenic diseases and genome-wide association studies support a critical role for CYP24A1 in regulation of mineral homeostasis, but little is known about its tissue-specific effects. Here, we describe the responses of mice with inducible global deletion, kidney-specific, and intestine-specific deletion of Cyp24a1 to dietary calcium challenge and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Global and kidney-specific Cyp24a1 deletion caused similar syndromes of systemic vitamin D intoxication: elevated circulating 1,25D, 25D, and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), activation of vitamin D
