Photoprotective Properties of Vitamin D and Lumisterol Hydroxyderivatives.

ABSTRACT: We have previously described new pathways of vitamin D3 activation by CYP11A1 to produce a variety of metabolites including 20(OH)D3 and 20,23(OH)₂D3. These can be further hydroxylated by CYP27B1 to produce their C1α-hydroxyderivatives. CYP11A1 similarly initiates the metabolism of lumisterol (L3) through sequential hydroxylation of the side chain to produce 20(OH)L3, 22(OH)L3, 20,22(OH)₂L3 and 24(OH)L3. CYP11A1 also acts on 7-dehydrocholesterol (7DHC) producing 22(OH)7DHC, 20,22(OH)₂7DHC and 7-dehydropregnenolone (7DHP) which can be converted to the D3 and L3 configurations following exposure to UVB. These CYP11A1-derived compounds are produced in vivo and are biologically active displaying anti-proliferative, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and pro-differentiation properties. Since the protective role of the classical form of vitamin D3 (1,25(OH)₂D3) against UVB-induced damage is recognized, we recently tested whether novel CYP11A1-derived D3- and L3-hydroxyderivatives protect against UVB-induced damage in epidermal human keratinocytes and melanocytes. We found that along with 1,25(OH)₂D3, CYP11A1-derived D3-hydroxyderivatives and L3 and its hydroxyderivatives exert photoprotective effects. These included induction of intracellular free radical scavenging and attenuation and repair of DNA damage. The protection of human keratinocytes against DNA damage included the activation of the NRF2-regulated antioxidant response, p53-phosphorylation and its translocation to the nucleus, and DNA repair induction. These data indicate that novel derivatives of vitamin D3 and lumisterol are promising photoprotective agents. However, detailed mechanisms of action, and the involvement of specific nuclear receptors, other vitamin D binding proteins or mitochondria, remain to be established.

Project description:Hydroxyderivatives of vitamin D3, including classical 1,25(OH)2D3 and novel CYP11A1‑derived hydroxyderivatives, exert their biological activity by acting as agonists on the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and inverse agonists on retinoid‑related orphan receptors (ROR)α and γ. The anticancer activities of CYP11A1‑derived hydroxyderivatives were tested using cell biology, tumor biology and molecular biology methods in human A431 and SCC13 squamous (SCC)‑ and murine ASZ001 basal (BCC)‑cell carcinomas, in comparison with classical 1,25(OH)2D3. Vitamin D3‑hydroxyderivatives with or without a C1α(OH) inhibited cell proliferation in a dose‑dependent manner. While all the compounds tested had similar effects on spheroid formation by A431 and SCC13 cells, those with a C1α(OH) group were more potent in inhibiting colony and spheroid formation in the BCC line. Potent anti‑tumorigenic activity against the BCC line was exerted by 1,25(OH)2D3, 1,20(OH)2D3, 1,20,23(OH)3D3, 1,20,24(OH)3D3, 1,20,25(OH)3D3 and 1,20,26(OH)3D3, with smaller effects seen for 25(OH)D3, 20(OH)D3 and 20,23(OH)2D3. 1,25(OH)2D3, 1,20(OH)2D3 and 20(OH)D3 inhibited the expression of GLI1 and β‑catenin in ASZ001 cells. In A431 cells, these compounds also decreased the expression of GLI1 and stimulated involucrin expression. VDR, RORγ, RORα and CYP27B1 were detected in A431, SCC13 and ASZ001 lines, however, with different expression patterns. Immunohistochemistry performed on human skin with SCC and BCC showed nuclear expression of all three of these receptors, as well as megalin (transmembrane receptor for vitamin D‑binding protein), the level of which was dependent on the type of cancer and antigen tested in comparison with normal epidermis. Classical and CYP11A1‑derived vitamin D3‑derivatives exhibited anticancer‑activities on skin cancer cell lines and inhibited GLI1 and β‑catenin signaling in a manner that was dependent on the position of hydroxyl groups. The observed expression of VDR, RORγ, RORα and megalin in human SCC and BCC suggested that they might provide targets for endogenously produced or exogenously applied vitamin D hydroxyderivatives and provide excellent candidates for anti‑cancer therapy.

Project description:Despite the recent development of improved methods of treating melanoma such as targeted therapy, immunotherapy or combined treatment, the number of new cases worldwide is increasing. It is well known that active metabolites of vitamin D3 and lumisterol (L3) exert photoprotective and antiproliferative effects on the skin, while UV radiation is a major environmental risk factor for melanoma. Thus, many natural metabolites and synthetic analogs of steroidal and secosteroidal molecules have been tested on various cancer cells and in animal models. In this study, we tested the anti-melanoma properties of several natural derivatives of vitamin D3 and L3 in comparison to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3). A significant decrease in melanoma cell proliferation and cell mobility was observed for selected derivatives, with (25R)-27-hydroxyL3 showing the highest potency (lowest IC50) in A375 cells but lower potency in SK-MEL-28 cells, whereas the parent L3 failed to inhibit proliferation. The efficacy (% inhibition) by 1,24,25(OH)3D3 and 1,25(OH)2D3 were similar in both cell types. 1,25(OH)2D3 showed higher potency than 1,24,25(OH)3D3 in SK-MEL-28 cells, but lower potency in A375 cells for the inhibition of proliferation. As for 1,25(OH)2D3, but not the other derivatives tested, treatment of melanoma cells with 1,24,25(OH)3D3 markedly increased the expression of CYP24A1, enhanced translocation of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) from the cytoplasm to the nucleus and also decreased the expression of the proliferation marker Ki67. The effects of the other compounds tested were weaker and occurred only under certain conditions. Our data indicate that 1,24,25(OH)3D3, which has undergone the first step in 1,25(OH)2D3 inactivation by being hydroxylated at C24, still shows anti-melanoma properties, displaying higher potency than 1,25(OH)2D3 in SK-MEL-28 cells. Furthermore, hydroxylation increases the potency of some of the lumisterol hydroxy-derivatives, as in contrast to L3, (25R)-27(OH)L3 effectively inhibits proliferation and migration of the human malignant melanoma cell line A375.
