CYP24 splicing variants are associated with different patterns of constitutive and calcitriol-inducible CYP24 activity in human prostate cancer cell lines.

Abstract excerpt

24-Hydroxylase (CYP24) activity modulates in vitro and in vivo calcitriol metabolism and biologic effects. We have investigated, in human PC3, DU145 and LNCaP prostate cancer cell lines, the relationship of CYP24 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and splicing and the variable patterns of baseline and calcitriol-inducible CYP24 activity. DU145 cells exhibit baseline CYP24 activity that is further induced by...
