  • The present investigation was designed to determine whether supplementation of different level of vitamin E for 12 months to arsenic exposed goats (50 ppm as sodium arsenite) affords protection against the blood hemato-biochemical parameters caused by the metalloid. A total of 24 crossbred (Alpine${\times}$Beetal) lactating goats were assigned randomly into 4 equal groups (control, $T_1$, $T_2$ and $T_3$) of 6 in each, on the basis of average body weight ($36.10{\pm}0.11$ kg) and milk yield ($1.61{\pm}0.04$ kg/d). The animals in $T_1$, $T_2$ and $T_3$ were given 50 ppm arsenic, while in $T_2$ and $T_3$, additionally; vitamin E at the rate of 100 IU and 150 IU/kg dry matter (DM) respectively was additionally supplemented for the period of 12 months. Hemoglobin (Hb), total leukocyte (TLC) and blood lymphocyte % were decreased (p<0.05) in arsenic fed groups and vitamin E supplementation in the experimental group showed a protective potential. Significant increases (p<0.05) in aspertate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) activities among arsenic supplemented groups were recorded, however vitamin E supplementation at higher doses showed a protective effect (p<0.05) against AST but in the case of ALT no ameliorating effect was found in either of the doses. Plasma total protein was decreased (p>0.05) but creatinine level was periodically increased in all As supplemented groups and vitamin E supplementation did not produce any protective effect. It can be concluded that arsenic exposure resulted in varying degree of changes in hemato-biochemical parameters and activities of antioxidant enzymes in goats but concomitant treatment with Vitamin E is partially helpful in reducing the burden of arsenic induced effect.

  • The vitamin D receptor (VDR) is a member of the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily. The VDR binds to active vitamin $D_3$ metabolites, which stimulates downstream transduction signaling involved in various physiological activities such as calcium homeostasis, bone mineralization, and cell differentiation. Quercetin is a widely distributed flavonoid in nature that is known to enhance transactivation of VDR target genes. However, the detailed molecular mechanism underlying VDR activation by quercetin is not well understood. We first demonstrated the interaction between quercetin and the VDR at the molecular level by using fluorescence quenching and saturation transfer difference (STD) NMR experiments. The dissociation constant ($K_d$) of quercetin and the VDR was $21.15{\pm}4.31{\mu}M$, and the mapping of quercetin subsites for VDR binding was performed using STD-NMR. The binding mode of quercetin was investigated by a docking study combined with molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. Quercetin might serve as a scaffold for the development of VDR modulators with selective biological activities.

  • Antihyperlipidemic effect of taurine was investigated in the hyperlipidemic rats induced by feeding a diet supplemented with cholesterol (1.5% in diet), vitamin $D_2$(1.25 million IU/kg of diet) and cholic acid (0.5% in diet). The rats were fed the diet containing 1% and 3% of taurine for 8 weeks. The contents of the cholesterol and triglycerides in the serum and liver of the hyperlipidemic rats were increased as compared with those of the control group. Feeding taurine resulted in decreases in total cholesterol and triglyceride levels. The HDL-cholesterol level in serum was decreased in the hyperlipidemic rats, but by administration of taurine its level was increased. In the aorta of the animals, total cholesterol and triglycerides contents were reduced significantly by treatment with taurine. The contents of calcium in the heart of hyperlipidemic rats were greatly increased as compared with those of the control group. Treatment of taurine produced significant decreases in calcium contents in the heart muscle of the animals. These results showed that the hyperlipidemic states in this model of rats were reversed by treatment of taurine.

  • Background: This case-control study aimed to determine if there were any associations between the two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in Gc, rs7041 (Asp416Glu) and rs4588 (Thr420Lys) and 3 common cancers (breast, lung and colorectal) in Thai patients. Materials and Methods: Two hundred and eighty two colorectal, 101 breast and 113 lung cancer patients were recruited from one institute during 2011-2013. The controls were age-matched volunteers who had a negative history of index cancers. In addition, vitamin D levels were compared among different genotypes in the 2 SNPs. Results: The minor allele frequencies of rs7041 (G) and rs4588 (A) were 0.32 and 0.24, respectively. Under the dominant model, the study found significant associations between minor-allele genotypes of the SNP rs7041 (TG/GG) and lung cancer (odds ratio [OR] 1.78, 95% CI 1.05-3.03). When subgroup analysis was performed according to sex and age at diagnosis, the study found that the minor-allele genotypes of rs7041 (TG/GG) were significantly associated with colorectal cancer in patients whose age at diagnosis was more than 60 years (OR 1.67, 95%CI 1.06-2.61) and the minor-allele genotypes of rs4588 (CA/AA) were significantly associated with colorectal cancer in males aged 60 years or less (OR 2.34, 95%CI 1.25-4.37). When SNP combinations (rs7041-rs4588) were examined, the TT-CA combination had a significant protective association with lung cancer (OR 0.44, 95% CI 0.22-0.85). On evaluation of serum 25(OH)D levels in 205 individuals without cancer (males 144, females 61), the proportion of subjects with low serum vitamin D (< 20 ng/ml) in those harboring CA or AA genotypes of rs4588 (41.7%) was significantly higher than the CC genotype (15.5%, p-value < 0.01). Conclusions: Genetic polymorphisms in Gc were associated with lung and colorectal cancers in Thai patients. Lower serum 25(OH)D in minor variants of rs4588 may explain this association.

  • Electrical stimulation and vitamin $AD_3E$ administration have been shown to enhance the repair of biological tissues such as bone, ligament and tendon, The objective of this study were (a) to investgate the therapeutic effects of different levels of electrical stimulation and vitamin $AD_3E$ administration on fracture healing in a rat model and (b) to identify the most effective voltage level. Ninety Sprague-dawley rats were divided into electrical stimulation group and vitamin $AD_3E$ administration group. Electricla stimulation group was divided into four groups on the basis of the level of current delivered. The experimental groups received current (which varied by group), while the controls, with identical electrodes, received no current. In vitamin $AD_3E$ administration group, experimental group was injected 2,500 IU of vitamin A, 1,250 IU of vitamine $D_3$, 1mg of vitamine E intramuscularly. And in control group 0.1ml of saline was injected intramuscularly. After time periods (7-day, 14-day, 21-day for stimulation all rats were tested with combination of biochemical, roentgenologic and histomorphological methods. The results obtained were as follows ; In electrical stimulation groups, serum calcium and inorganic phosphorus level of experimental and control groups showed non specific change within normal physiological ranges. In vitamin $AD_3E$ administration group, serum calcium level of experimental and control groups showed non specific changes within normal physiological ranges, while experimental group showed slightly higher serum inorganic phosphorus level. According to roentgenologic and histomorphological examination, 2V 25Hz electrical stimulation group and vitamine $AD_3E$ administration group showed statistically significant improvements in bone density and ossification reaction until day 14. The terapeutic effect of stimulation on fracture healing was similiar to that of vitamin $AD_3E$ administration. In this study stimulation of 2V 25Hz was the most effective level of electrical stimulation for the healing of fracture of rats.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the synthesis of previtamin D$_3$(PreD$_3$), lumisterol$_3$($L_3$) and vitamin $D_3$ ($D_3$) in dorsal skin of 8 week-old broiler chicks irradiated by UV light. The Hubbard line day-old broiler chicks were fed with vitamin D-depleted ration (or 3 weeks and with medium broiler diet for 5 weeks. The 3$\times$3cm area of dorsal skin was defeathered one day before the experiment. The 310nm UV light was utilized to irradiate the dorsal skin, which was separated into epidermis and dermis after irradiation. The irradiated epidermis was extracted with 60% ethyl acetate in n-hexane and PreD$_3$, $L_3$, D$_3$ and 7-dehydrocholesterol (7-DHC) were analyzed by HPLC. When UV light was treated for 0, 90 or 150min. the L$_3$ content in the separated epidermis was 219, 298 or 248ng/$\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively. The irradiation for 90min produced 79ng/$\textrm{cm}^2$ of L$_3$, and the synthesizing rate was 0.9ng/$\textrm{cm}^2$/min. The PreD$_3$ content was 23, 33 or 12ng/$\textrm{cm}^2$ when exposed for 0, 60 or 150min The 10ng/$\textrm{cm}^2$ of PreD$_3$ was produced for 60min. The D$_3$ was generated by 27ng/$\textrm{cm}^2$ when exposed for 90min. The 7-DHC contents were decreased gradually from initial 123 to 35ng/$\textrm{cm}^2$ when exposed for 150 min, showing the rate of disappearance as 0.6ng/$\textrm{cm}^2$/min.

  • The safety of pufferfish (Lagocephalus gloveri) liver oil and the contents of some nutritional components were examined to obtain important information on their use as high valued functional foods. Pufferfish liver oil was extracted by the hot-water method using $1\%$ NaOH solution to remove toxic compounds, and then purified using a general purifying method of fish oil. Any extraordinary clinical symptoms were not observed from all groups administrated with pufferfish liver oil throughout the test period. None of the rats died when administrated the highest concentration of 10 mL/kg of the pufferfish liver oil. Vitamin A content was 114.2 ppm, as a retinal equivalent in the oil extracted using hot-water, but the content was higher (169.3 ppm) in oil extracted using n-hexane. Vitamin D and E were not detected in ppm in oil extracted using hot-water. Vitamin D in the pufferfish liver oil extracted using n-hexane was also undetected, but vitamin E was at 32.5 ppm. Among the 18 minerals detected, the sodium content was the highest at 253.5 ppm, followed by 13.9 ppm ofpotassium, 1.5 ppm of calcium, 0.2 ppm of magnesium, and other trace minerals. The contents of EPA and DHA were $0.8\%\;and\;14.8\%$, respectively, in the pufferfish liver oil extracted using hot-water. Considering these results, there is potential that pufferfish liver oil could be used as a functional food.

  • Intramolecular Diels-Alder cycloadditions of 2-pyrone-3-carboxylates with trans-vinyl silaketal groups tethered via a chiral, non-racemic 1,3-butanediol auxiliary proceeded in unexpected stepwise cycloadditions through ionic intermediates to provide cis-disubstituted bicylolactones. The ratio of two isomers, exo and endo, was 5 to 1, and each isomer was found to be diastereomerically pure (>99% de). Their relative and absolute stereochemistries were determined by $^1H$ NMR spectroscopy and confirmed by X-ray crystallography of minor, endo-adduct 9. The major exo-adduct was successfully transformed to (-)-2-butyl substituted A-ring phophine oxide 16, a key element for the synthesis of 2-butyl vitamin D3.
