Maintenance of the pool of chondrocytes in the resting zone of the growth plate in the presence of the physiological apoptogen inorganic phosphate (Pi) is crucial for skeletal development Costochondral resting zone chondrocytes are regulated by the vitamin D metabolite 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24R,25(OH)(2)D-3], with Increased production of sulfated glycosaminoglycan-rich extracellular matrix, and reduced matrix metalloproteinase activity The effects of 24R,25(OH)(2)D-3 are mediated by activation of phospholipase D (PLD), resulting in increased production of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and LPA-mediated proliferation, maturation, inhibition of Pi-induced apoptosis, and reduction of p53 However, the exact mechanism by which 24R,25(OH)2D3 and LPA exert their effects is not fully understood. It was found that both 24R,25(OH)(2)D-3 and LPA attenuate Pi-induced caspase-3 activity The actions of 24R,25(OH)(2)D-3 and LPA were dependent upon G(ou) LPA receptor(s) 1 and/or 3, PLD, phospholipase C (PLC), and intracellular calcium, phosphomositide 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling, and nuclear export. 24R,25(OH)(2)D-3 decreased both p53 abundance and p53-medaited transcription and inhibited Pi-induced cytochrome c translocation. Moreover, LPA Induced Increased mdm2 phosphorylation, a negative regulator of p53. Taken together, these data show that 24R,25(OH)(2)D-3 inhibits Pi-induced apoptosis through Ca2+. PLD, and PLC signaling and through LPA-LPA1/3-G(alpha 1)-PI3K-mdm2-mediated p53 degradation, resulting in decreased cytochrome c translocation and caspase-3 activity (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved.
