    Abstract:
    Phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA), a protein kinase C(PKC) activator, can modulate 1α, 25 dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25(OH)(2)D(3))-induced expression of the 24-hydroxylase (CYP24A1) gene but this has not been studied in differentiated enterocytes, a primary 1,25(OH)(2) D(3) target cell. We found that in differentiated Caco-2 cells, an established model of the mature absorptive epithelial cell, PMA significantly enhanced 1,25(OH)(2)D(3)-induced human CYP24A1 (hCYP24A1) mRNA accumulation and hCYP24A1 promoter-luciferase reporter gene activation by 150%. Reporter gene studies further identified the region between -298 and +74 bp in the hCYP24A1 promoter as critical for the PMA enhancing effect and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) analysis showed that PMA enhanced 1,25(OH)(2)D(3)-induced binding of vitamin D receptor to this region. PMA can activate PKC, ERK1/2, and p38 MAP kinases and inhibition of these signaling pathways reduced both 1,25(OH)(2)D(3)-induced hCYP24A1 gene transcription and the enhancing effect of PMA. The PMA enhancing effect on 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) action was evident in a minimal promoter with three osteocalcin VDREs and was reduced after mutation of a putative vitamin D stimulatory site in the hCYP24A1 promoter. In contrast, mutation of a Ets binding site (EBS) in the hCYP24A1 promoter had no impact on 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) action or the PMA enhancing effect. These data suggest that in the differentiated enterocyte PMA-induced activation of several signaling pathways contribute to 1,25(OH)(2)D(3)-induced hCYP24A1 gene expression through multiple regulatory motifs within the proximal hCYP24A1 promoter.
