Research Abstract |
As a novel skeleton of vitamin D working on bone formation, 14-epi-2α-methyl-1α, 25-dihydroxy-19-norprevitamin D_3 has been synthesized. Interestingly, we found that the new compound epimerizes to 14-epi-2α-methyl-1α, 25-dihydroxy-19-nortachysterol by acidic catalysts, and the tachysterol analog showed potent osteocalcin promoter transactivation activity through the vitamin D receptor. Next, we developed a direct synthetic route to the epimerized compound to obtain enough amount of the tachysterol analog for in vivo studies. X-ray co-crystallographic studies explained an unprecedented binding mode of the tachysterol to the vitamin D receptor.
