Sažetak
Intake of a low-phosphate diet stimulates transepithelial transport of Pi in small intestine as well as in renal proximal tubules. In both organs, this is paralleled by a change in the abundance of the apically localized NaPi cotransporters NaPi type IIa (NaPi-IIa) and NaPi type IIb (NaPi-IIb), respectively. Low- Pi diet, via stimulation of the activity of the renal 25- hydroxyvitamin-D3-1-hydroxylase (1OHase), leads to an increase in the level of 1, 25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 [1, 25(OH) 2D]. Regulation of the intestinal absorption of Pi and the abundance of NaPi-IIb by 1, 25(OH)2D has been supposed to involve the vitamin D receptor (VDR). In this study, we investigated the adaptation to a low-Pi diet of NaPi-IIb in small intestine as well as NaPi-IIa in kidneys of either VDR- or 1OHase-deficient mice. In both mouse models, upregulation by a low-Pi diet of the NaPi cotransporters NaPi-IIa and NaPi-IIb was normal, i.e., similar to that observed in the wild types. Also, in small intestines of VDR- and 1OHase-deficient mice, the same changes in NaPi-IIb mRNA found in wild-type mice were observed. On the basis of the results, we conclude that the regulation of NaPi cotransport in small intestine (via NaPi-IIb) and kidney (via NaPi-IIa) by low dietary intake of Pi cannot be explained by the 1, 25(OH)2D-VDR axis.
