Title: Low-calcemic, efficacious, 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 analog QW-1624F2-2: calcemic dose-response determination, preclinical genotoxicity testing, and revision of A-ring stereochemistry. Author: Posner GH, Jeon HB, Sarjeant A, Riccio ES, Doppalapudi RS, Kapetanovic IM, Saha U, Dolan P, Kensler TW. Journal: Steroids; 2004; 69(11-12):757-62. PubMed ID: 15579327. Abstract: Based on an X-ray crystal structure determination, the A-ring stereochemistry of hybrid analog QW-1624F2-2 (1alpha-hydroxymethyl-16-ene-24,24-difluoro-25-hydroxy-26,27-bis-homovitamin D3) is revised to be 1alpha-CH2OH-3beta-OH. This analog is shown to be approximately 80-100 times less calciuric than the natural hormone 1alpha,25-dihydoxyvitamin D3. This analog is shown also to be non-genotoxic in three different standard assays.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
