Product Description

Calcifediol monohydrate (also known as 25-hydroxyvitamin D3; 25-hydroxy VD3) is the major circulating metabolite of vitamin D3 in the blood and is the form that is tested in medicine to determine vitamin D deficiency, namely, the test of 25-hydroxy vitamin D (calcifediol) levels to evaluate how much vitamin D is in the body. It is also an intermediate in the biosynthetic pathway leading to the production of 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3, the active form of vitamin D. Calcifediol acts as a competitive inhibitor with an apparent Ki of 3.9 μM. It also suppresses PTH secretion and mRNA (ED50=2 nM). Calcifediol induced CYP24A1 expression with EC50 at 70 nM. Calcifediol stimulated the expression of thrombomodulin with EC50 at 10-100 nM. Confocal microscopy revealed that calcifediol at 0.1 - 10 μM induced VDR translocation into the nucleus dose-dependently; the VDR localization pattern was similar in cells treated with calcitriol.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
The proinflammatory cytokine KC is not affected by calcidiol or calcifediol in an ethanol solution when it comes to Pseudomonas-infected epithelial cells. Lethality of human bronchitis 16-HBE cells infected with calcifediol or calcifediol in ethanol solution was significantly reduced [1].

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : ~50 mg/mL (~119.43 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.97 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.97 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)

1 mM 2.3886 mL 11.9429 mL 23.8857 mL
5 mM 0.4777 mL 2.3886 mL 4.7771 mL
10 mM 0.2389 mL 1.1943 mL 2.3886 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
