Descrizione generale

Vitamin D2 or ergocalciferol is available through dietary supplements or plant sources. It is a provitamin, which is fat-soluble.

Applicazioni

Ergocalciferol has been used as a component of the diet for rats, to study its bioavailability from ultraviolet-irradiated D2-rich yeast. It has also been used as a standard for identification and quantification of vitamins, as part of a study to determine the nutritional composition of food fishes.

Azioni biochim/fisiol

Ergocalciferol (vitamin D2) and 25-Hydroxycholecalciferol (vitamin D3) are the two forms of vitamin D, which are activated in vivo by hydroxylation. Vitamin D2 and D3 may be used in a wide range of studies to assess their effects on function such as immune function and calcium homeostasis.
Ergocalciferol is used for antirachitic treatment. Vitamin D has an active role in bone mineralization. Severe deficiency of this vitamin has been associated with osteomalacia and rickets.

Articoli

Vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) is naturally synthesized from ergosterol by invertebrates, fungi, and plants in response to ultraviolet B irradiation, while vitamin D3 synthesis (cholecalciferol) is uniquely initiated in the skin of vertebrates. During sun exposure, ultraviolet B photons are absorbed by 7-dehydrocholesterol, which is found within the plasma membranes of epidermal and dermal skin layers. This reaction yields an unstable derivative of 7-dehydrocholesterol, named precholecalcitrol, which rapidly rearranges to vitamin D3. Vitamin D binding protein (DBP) is a carrier protein responsible for drawing vitamin D3 from the plasma membrane into the dermal capillaries within the extracellular space.
