(24R)-24,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 is a vitamin D3 metabolite which is involved in bone ossification. In addition, it is known that (24R)-24,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 mediates calcium and phosphorus homeostasis. Also (24R)-24,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 inhibits calcium channels in osteosarcoma cells via suppressing the effects of 1alpha, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and testosterone. Alternate studies indicate that (24R)-24,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 can decrease the abundance of p53 and Pi-induced cytochrome c translocation. Furthermore, (24R)-24,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 can increase cell proliferation in resting zone (RC) chondrocytes and inhibits matrix enzymes by possibly inhibiting the degradation of the matrix.
