1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D(3) is mainly synthesized by renal proximal tubular cells. More recently, it has been shown to affect cell growth and TGF-beta(1) synthesis in glomerular and tubular renal cells in vitro, and to prevent glomerulosclerosis in vivo in subtotally nephrectomized rats. The mechanisms involved have not been fully identified. We asked whether 1,25-vitamin D(3) might interact with additional immunoregulatory functions of renal cells by studying its effects on the expression of the cellular adhesion molecules ICAM-1 (CD54) and VCAM-1 (CD106) in human proximal tubular cells in vitro (HK-2 cells).
