    Study Notes

    Lipid-Soluble Vitamins

    • Vitamin D:

      • Important for calcium homeostasis
      • Regulates serum calcium levels
      • Responds to hypocalcemia
      • Precursor is cholesterol
      • Converted to cholecalciferol (D3) in the skin via UV light
      • Further processed in the liver and kidney to calcitriol (biologically active form)
      • Calcitriol maintains calcium levels for bone mineralization
      • Deficiency leads to rickets (children) or osteomalacia (adults)
      • Also important for non-skeletal health, possibly preventing cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes
      • Low Vitamin D levels, are associated with reduced calcium and phosphorous absorption from intestines
      • Hypophosphatemia is a common outcome of vitamin D deficiency
      • Vitamin D deficiency impairs mineralization of bones.
      • Normal plasma levels of 25-(OH)-D is 20–100 ng/mL and is affected by sun exposure, diet, malabsorption disorders, renal diseases, rare genetic disorders and medication side effects
    • Vitamin A (Retinol):

      • Crucial for vision (retinal in rod and cone cells)
      • Regulates growth and development, especially in epithelium
      • Precursor is beta-carotene
      • Deficiency symptoms: night blindness, corneal epithelial changes, dry eyes, and bronchitis
      • Important for mucus production in epithelial cells
      • Vitamin A is critical for the development and maintenance of epithelial tissues
      • Deficiency of retinal causes night blindness, and deficiency of retinoic acid impairs functions of vitamin D and thyroid hormones
      • Deficiency can lead to prolonged deficiency leading to irreversible loss of visual cells
      • Excess is a teratogen
    • Vitamin K:

      • Necessary for blood clotting (carboxylation of coagulation factors)
      • Dietary form is phytomenadione (K1)
      • Active form (menaquinones, K2) produced by intestinal bacteria
      • Deficiency: hemorrhagic conditions, increased prothrombin time, easy bruising
      • Important for calcium binding in proteins
      • Vitamin K is essential for the synthesis of clotting factors
      • Deficiency is associated with fat malabsorption, insufficient intestinal bacteria, or prolonged antibiotic use
    • Vitamin E (a-tocopherol):

      • Antioxidant
      • Protects cell membranes from lipid peroxidation
      • Potentially reduces cancer, coronary heart disease, and age-related disorders
      • Deficiency may cause hemolytic anemia
      • Essential for maintaining the integrity of cell membranes
      • Vitamin E is also an antioxidant and a scavenger of free radicals
    • Functions of PTH(Parathyroid Hormone):

      • Increases calcium absorption in kidneys
      • Promotes calcium retention in kidneys
      • Stimulates calcitriol formation in kidneys
      • Increases bone degradation
      • Important for calcium homeostasis
    • Functions of calcitriol:

      • Regulates calcium absorption in GI tract
      • Increases calcium and phosphate absorption in intestines
      • Resorption of calcium in kidneys
      • Bone mineralization
      • Regulation of calcium, phosphate, and bone metabolism
    • Vitamin D Deficiency:

      • Normal plasma levels of 25-(OH)-D is 20–100 ng/mL
      • Caused by limited sun exposure, diet , malabsorption, renal issues, or genetic disorders.
      • Can lead to impaired bone mineralization
      • Leads to rickets (children) and osteomalacia (adults)
      • Deficiency can be associated with osteomalacia.
    • Vitamin A Deficiency, Excess of Vitamin A:

      • The deficiency of retinal causes night blindness, and deficiency of retinoic acid impairs functions of vitamin D and thyroid hormones. Overdose presents teratogenic effects
    • Vitamin K Deficiency:

      • Caused by fat malabsorption, insufficient intestinal bacteria, or prolonged antibiotic use.
      • Leads to decreased clotting factor function, increased prothrombin time, and easy bruising
      • Can cause abnormal bleeding, especially in newborns (hemorrhagic disease of the newborn).
      • Deficiency can cause significant clotting issues and easy bruising
    • Regulation of Vitamin D synthesis:

      • Hypocalcemia stimulates PTH secretion.
      • PTH stimulates 1a-hydroxylase in the kidneys.
      • Increased calcitriol production downregulates its own synthesis via negative feedback
    • Osteoporosis:

      • Bone resorption exceeds formation.
      • Decreased bone mass
      • Reduced estrogen, vitamin D, and calcium often contribute.
      • Also affected by gender, race, and genetics

    Mechanisms of Steroid Hormone Action

    • Steroid and thyroid hormones can pass through plasma membrane.
    • These hormones bind to intracellular receptors in the cytoplasm or nucleus
    • This affects gene transcription (regulates expression).

    Intracellular Receptors

    • Steroid Hormone Receptor Family: GR, MR, AR, PR
    • Thyroid Hormone Receptor Family: TR, RAR, RXR, ER, PPAR, and VDR

    Vitamin D Receptor (VDR)

    • Activation: Calcitriol binds to VDR; complex binds to VDRE in target genes
    • Outcome: Regulates cellular processes, including gene transcription
    • Impact: Vital for bone mineralization, calcium homeostasis, and other processes

    Lipid free radicals and lipid peroxides

    • Free-radical chain reactions involving oxygen radicals, leading to lipid peroxidation (damaging membranes)
    • Vitamin E acts as antioxidant, neutralizing free radicals
    • Antioxidants prevent cell damage
