Chemical compounds |
| Experiment: |
SA-β-gal activity assay//Western blot |
| Description: |
Serum calcium and phosphorus levels were increased significantly in exogenous 1,25(OH)2D3-supplemented 18-month-old mice compared with vehicle-treated mice. In addition, BMD, trabecular bone volume, trabecular number and thickness, osteoblast number, MAR, and BFR were increased significantly ,whereas TRAP-positive osteoclastic number, the percentages of β-gal+, p16+, and IL-6+ osteocytes, and the mRNA levels of TNFα,IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-6, Mmp3, and p16 were all significantly decreased in exogenous 1,25(OH)2D3-supplemented 18-month-old mice compared with vehicle-treated mice. |

| Pathway experiment: |
Western blot//qRT-PCR//CHIP//Luciferase reporter assay |
| Pathway description: |
We found that 1,25(OH)2D3 increased the mRNA level of Ezh2 and down-regulated p16 and p19 expression at both protein and mRNA levels .The results of a ChIP-PCR assay demonstrated that the VDR could directly bind to the Ezh2 promoter at the predicted binding site. Luciferase reporter assays demonstrated that treatment of 1,25-(OH)2-D3 increased luciferase activity significantly in BM-MSCs transfected with an Ezh2-Luc plasmid, but failed to activate the mutant Luc reporter. |
