摘要

The secosteroid 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 [1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D-3] acts on cells via classical steroid hormone receptor-mediated gene transcription and by initiating rapid membrane-mediated signaling pathways. In its membrane-initiated pathway, after 1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D-3 interacts with protein disulfide isomerase, family A, member 3 (Pdia3) in caveolae, phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) and protein kinase C (PKC) are activated. Recent efforts to determine the signaling proteins involved in the 1 alpha,25(OH)(2)D-3 signal from Pdia3 to PLA(2) have indicated that phospholipase A(2) activating protein (PLAA) and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKII) are required. PLAA is located in caveolae, where it interacts with Pdia3 and caveolin-1 (Cav-1) to initiate rapid signaling via CaMKII, activating PLA(2), leading to activation of protein kinase C (PKC) and PKC-dependent responses.
