Abstract
The determination of vitamin D metabolites as status marker or for diagnostic purposes is almost entirely conducted from blood serum or plasma. Other biological matrices, however, have also interested researchers, for two main reasons: (1) alternative matrices may allow non-invasive sampling, permit easier sample transfer and require less demanding storage conditions; and (2) the levels of vitamin D metabolites in other body compartments may further aid the understanding of vitamin D metabolism and function. Thus, the development of reliable and efficient sample preparation protocols for sample matrices other than serum/plasma, which will remove potential interferences and selectively extract the targeted metabolites, is of great importance. This review summarizes sample preparation methods for measurement of vitamin D metabolites using liquid chromatography-(tandem)mass spectrometry in more than ten different human tissues, including hair, saliva, adipose tissue, brain and others.

Abstract
The concentrations of (24R)-24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3[24,25(OH)2D3], 25-hydroxyvitamin D3[25(OH)D3] and its 3-sulphate [25(OH)D3(3)S] in the plasma of healthy subjects, patients with chronic renal failure, patients with climacteric syndrome, pregnant women and foetuses were determined using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and high-performance liquid chromatography. 25(OH)D3(3)S was not detected in about one-third of the plasma samples from patients with chronic renal failure (n = 26). The three metabolites in maternal plasma reached the highest levels in the second trimester of pregnancy followed by a decrease to the values obtained in the first trimester. Older healthy women (age range 44-71 years) showed higher levels of 24,25(OH)2D3 and 25(OH)D3 in the plasma than did young healthy women (age range 21-29 years), whereas no clear difference was observed between the older healthy women and patients with climacteric syndrome. The level of 25(OH)D3(3)S in the plasma was higher in the latter patients than in healthy women.

Abstract
The characteristics of the mass spectra of vitamin D3 related compounds were investigated by GC-MS and LC-MS using 22-oxacalcitriol (OCT), an analog of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, and related compounds. Fragmentation during GC-MS (electron impact ionization) of TMS-derivatives of OCT and the postulated metabolites gave useful structural information concerning the vitamin D3-skeleton and its side-chain, especially with respect to the oxidation positions of metabolites. In contrast, few fragment ions were observed in LC-MS (atmospheric pressure chemical ionization), showing that LC-MS gave poor structural information, except for molecular mass. However, when comparing the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) observed during GC-MS and LC-MS analysis for OCT in plasma extracts, the S/N in LC-MS was over ten-times greater than in GC-MS, possibly due to the low recovery on derivatization and thermal-isomerization in GC-MS. Furthermore, both the GC-MS and the LC-MS allowed the analysis of many postulated metabolites in a single injection without any prior isolation of target metabolites from biological fluids by LC. These results suggest that GC-MS and LC-MS analysis for vitamin D3 related compounds such as OCT each have unique and distinct advantages. Therefore, the complementary use of both techniques enables the rapid and detailed characterization of vitamin D3 related compounds.

Abstract
To obtain an antibody which is useful for developing a selective immunoaffinity chromatography (IAC) of 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3], which is an effective pretreatment tool for determining this metabolite in biological fluids, a variety of monoclonal antibodies have been produced against a novel haptenic derivative, 11alpha-hemiglutaryloxy-1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, linked to bovine serum albumin. BALB/c, A/J and C57BL/6 mice, as well as Wistar and SD rats, were immunized with the hapten-carrier conjugate and the titer of the anti-1,25(OH)2D3 antibody in serum was examined. Spleen cells from A/J mice or SD rats, which showed a high titer, were fused with P3/NS1/1-Ag4-1 myeloma cells. After serial screening by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and radioimmunoassay, sixteen kinds of hybridoma clones secreting different anti-1,25(OH)2D3 antibodies were established. Scatchard analysis revealed that 12 antibodies out of 16 have enough affinity to 1,25(OH)2D3 (Ka>10(9) M[-1]). By a cross-reaction study using various related compounds, two antibodies, M114 and M129, both derived from A/J mice, were found to have suitable specificity. Although they showed relatively high cross-reactivities with the 1,25(OH)2D3 derivatives having 24-hydroxylated (both 20%) or lactonized (30%, 8.9%) side chain, all the tested 1alpha-deoxy-type metabolites, some of which interfere with the 1,25(OH)2D3 assays, were successfully discriminated [25(OH)D3: 0.67%, 0.40%; 24,25(OH)2D3: 0.27%, 0.24%; 25(OH)D3 3-sulfate: 0.11%, 0.14%]. These monoclonal antibodies will be applicable for developing not only IAC but also various immunoassay procedures.

Abstract
A continuous automatable cleanup procedure coupled on-line with a liquid chromatograph and UV detector for hydroxyvitamin D3 metabolites [24,25-(OH)2, 1,25-(OH)2 and 25-(OH)] as an alternative to batch solid-phase extraction is reported. The method, based on continuous solid-phase cleanup/preconcentration of the analytes, requires only the passage of the sample through a single minicolumn, which also results in a preconcentration effect which increases the sensitivity. The proposed method is also compared with a conventional batch, two-step solid-phase extraction method previously improved by the authors. The method has been checked by applying it to plasma samples spiked with the target analytes (linear range between 0.05 and 100 ng/ml with coefficient of variation values lower than 6.5%) and acceptable recoveries ranging between 94.6 and 101% have been obtained. The sampling frequency was 4 h-1.

Abstract
The serum concentration of vitamin D will only give information about the recent exposure to either nutritional vitamin D or to recent vitamin D production in the skin. Within hours vitamin D is removed from the circulation and reappears again a few hours later as 25(OH)D. Measurements of vitamin D therefore are not useful to judge the vitamin D status of man. Plasma concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) are the best markers of imminent or existing vitamin D deficiency. Suboptimal vitamin D supply (or 25(OH)D plasma concentrations) are observed in most European countries and North America from November to April. Vitamin D substitution is recommended to persons with a serum concentration of 25(OH)D below 50 nmol/L (20 micrograms/L). Plasma concentrations of 1,25(OH)2D3 (calcitriol) depend mainly on renal function, concentrations of intact PTH and the supply of the organism with calcium and phosphate. High PTH, low calcium and low phosphate supply are the main stimulators of the production of calcitriol. Vitamin D substitution, or if necessary, therapy with active vitamin D metabolites or analogs, e.g. calcitriol or alfacalcidol, are often necessary in hypercalcemic persons with low serum concentrations of calcitriol, e.g. in patients with renal failure. Disorders with low or high vitamin D metabolite concentrations in serum are described in this paper.

Abstract
A new, highly sensitive HPLC assay method using an electrochemical detector (ECD) for multiple assay of vitamin D metabolites is reported. The assay involves extracting lipids from plasma with methylene chloride and methanol, purification on Zorbax SIL column with 5.5% (v/v) iso-propanol in hexane and quantification by HPLC-ECD. A coulometric system, composed of the dual electrode analytical cell and a guard cell, was used for ECD of the eluting compounds. The potentials applied to detectors 1 and 2 in a dual electrode analytical cell were adjusted to +0.20 V and +0.60 V, respectively. This method is sensitive to 20 pg of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3] and of 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24,25(OH)2D3]. Calibration curves gave linearity from 20-1000 pg for 25(OH)D3 and 24,25(OH)2D3. The detection limit was approximately 50 pg ml-1 for 25(OH)D3 and 24,25(OH)2D3 in plasma. This sensitivity combined with an overall recovery of 25(OH)D3 (81.5 +/- 2.6%, mean +/- S.E.) allows the measurement of trace amount of 25(OH)D3 with only 20 microliters of plasma. Intra- and interassay RSD values were 5.3 and 9.7% for 25(OH)D3 and 6.3 and 9.7% for 24,25(OH)2D3, respectively. Plasma levels of 25(OH)D3 and 24,25(OH)2D3 in normal adults were 15.9 +/- 2.8 ng ml-1 (n = 10) and 1.4 +/- 0.5 ng ml-1 (n = 10), respectively. This method allows the determination of 25(OH)D2 and 25(OH)D3 for evaluating their nutritional and clinical status. From these results, it is concluded that the proposed HPLC-ECD assay system is useful for the determination of vitamin D metabolites in biological fluids as a highly sensitive physicochemical method.

Abstract
Novel hapten-carrier conjugants were prepared by coupling 11 alpha-hemiglutaryloxy-(24R)-24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 or (24R)-24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24,25(OH)2D3] 3-hemiglutarate with bovine serum albumin (BSA), to obtain an antibody with high specificity and affinity for use in 24,25(OH)2D3 immunoassay. The polyclonal antibodies showing high titre were each elicited in three or four rabbits against these two conjugants; the antibodies obtained from the former and the latter conjugants were expressed as Ab11 and Ab3, respectively. These had a much higher affinity for 24,25(OH)2D3 than that of the vitamin D binding protein (DBP). Specificity of the antibodies was investigated by crossreactivities with 11 related compounds in a radioimmunoassay (RIA) system. The Abll well discriminated the 1 alpha-hydroxylated metabolites such as 1,24,25(OH)3D3 (< or = 0.69%) and 1,25(OH)2D3 (< or = 0.25%), but significantly crossreacted with some side chain modified compounds such as (24S)-24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24S,25(OH)2D3] (> or = 67%), 25(OH)D3 (> or = 14%) and 25,26(OH)2D3 (> or = 23%). On the other hand, the Ab3 showed only negligible crossreactivities with the compounds having a different side chain structure such as 24S,25(OH)2D3 (< or = 3.0%), 25(OH)D3 (< 0.3%) and 25,26(OH)2D3 (< or = 0.53%). A significant crossreaction was found only with 1,24,25(OH)3D3 (> or = 68%). These results demonstrated that the Ab3 are promising for developing an immunoassay system which is much more specific and sensitive than conventional competitive protein binding assays based on DBP.

Abstract
We have shown earlier that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2 D3] induces cell growth suppression and cell differentiation of a human megakaryoblastic leukemia cell line, HIMeg. However, the molecular mechanism of 1,25(OH)2 D3 action is still unknown. Prompted by this, we have searched here for the presence of 1,25(OH)2 D3 receptor (VDR) expression in HIMeg cells by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The amplified product showed an identical size to the product amplified from the control human VDR cDNA and hybridized specifically with the digoxigenin-labeled human VDR cDNA fragment. As expected, VDR mRNA is also expressed in HOS-8603, a human osteosarcoma cell line. These results represent the first reported evidence that VDR mRNA is expressed in megakaryoblastic cells. In addition, the regulation of VDR mRNA expression in HIMeg cells was studied by quantitative RT-PCR. It was found that [correction of the] VDR mRNA expression in HIMeg cells could be down-regulated rapidly by 1,25(OH)2 D3 (10 nM) in a time-dependent manner, reaching a maximal reduction to about 15% of control. However, VDR mRNA expression in HOS-8603 cells was not regulated by 1,25(OH)2 D3 at any time-point tested. Treatment of HIMeg cells with forskolin (1 microM), an activator of adenylate cyclase, caused an increase in VDR mRNA levels. Similarly, VDR mRNA expression in HOS-8603 cells was also up-regulated by forskolin. Consistent with the functionality of the VDR in other target cells, we found that the up-regulation of VDR expression in HIMeg cells by forskolin was accompanied by an increased responsiveness of HIMeg cells to 1,25(OH)2 D3 even though forskolin alone had no effects. Exposure to 1,25(OH)2 D3 in combination with forskolin resulted in a much more significant inhibition of cell proliferation than to 1,25(OH)2 D3 alone. Similarly, forskolin could also augment the differentiation induced by 1,25(OH)2 D3 reflected by a more evident morphological change and a higher percentage of development of cells with multilobular nuclei. These alterations were accompanied by a loss of clonogenic capacity and a decrease in the number of cells in the S phase. These data establish that HIMeg cells express functional VDR, which served to mediate actions of its ligand on the proliferation and differentiation of these cells.

Abstract
A convenient non-radioactive method for assaying plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 is described. The method uses 22-hydroxytetranorvitamin D3 as an internal standard and includes two-step liquid- and solid-phase extractions and quantification by normal-phase HPLC. The intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation were 2.2% and 2.4%, respectively, and the analytical recovery of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 added to plasma was quantitative. Assay linearity was obtained in the range 0.5-4.0 ml of plasma. When compared with the method employing a radioactive 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 tracer, the correlation coefficient was 0.990 (slope 0.999 and intercept 1.19 ng/ml).

Abstract
We report here a novel and powerful pretreatment method for radioreceptor assays (RRAs) for human plasma 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) based on "Tandem" immunoaffinity chromatography (Tandem IAC). Two antibodies having different specificities were each immobilized on agarose gel with cyanogen bromide to produce immunosorbents which were stable and repeatedly usable. An ethyl ether extract of plasma was applied to the first affinity column, from which 1,25(OH)2D3 could be preferentially eluted and separated from 1 alpha-deoxy type metabolites. The effluent was then submitted to the second column, and the 1,25(OH)2D3 retained was eluted after non- or weakly-absorbed interfering substances were washed out. This procedure allowed efficient purification without careful handling or strict time-management in the entire operation and enabled avoiding preparative high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) from RRA even with a conventional chick intestinal vitamin D receptor. Mean (+/- SD) plasma 1,25(OH)2D3 values of 56 normal subjects and 10 patients with chronic renal failure, obtained with this Tandem IAC/RRA system, were 36.4 (8.7) and 11.2 (4.0) pg/ml, respectively. The Tandem IAC will also be useful for developing immunoassays or gas chromatography-mass spectrometry of 1,25(OH)2D3.

Abstract
To obtain a group-specific antibody to 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D and its derivatives having the 1 alpha,3 beta-dihydroxylated A-ring structure, 1 alpha-hydroxy-25,26,27-trinorvitamin D3-24-oic acid was synthesized as a haptenic derivative by a new convenient synthetic route. Three kinds of polyclonal antibodies were elicited in rabbits against the hapten conjugated with bovine serum albumin, and their specificity was examined by cross-reactivities in a radioimmunoassay procedure. One of the antibodies was found to show a suitable binding property by addition of a small amount of the plasma from vitamin D-deficient rats. Dose-response curves with measurable ranges applicable to biological specimens were obtained for 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2, (24R)-1 alpha,24,25-trihydroxyvitamin D3, (23S,25R)-1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 26,23-lactone, and 22-oxacalcitriol by the radioimmunoassay system using this improved antibody. The antibody will be widely useful for developing profile analyses of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D and its derivatives (metabolites or synthetic analogs) having the 1 alpha,3 beta-dihydroxylated A-ring, as well as immunoassays measuring each of these secosterols individually.

Abstract
To obtain a specific antibody for use in 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3] immunoassay, a novel hapten-carrier conjugate was prepared by coupling 11 alpha-hemiglutaryloxy-25(OH)D3 with bovine serum albumin (BSA). Three polyclonal antibodies (Ab11) showing high titer and affinity for 25(OH)D3 (Ka = 0.96-2.6 x 10(9) M-1) were elicited in rabbits by repeated immunization with the conjugate. Specificity of the Ab11 was investigated by cross-reactivities with 11 related compounds in a radioimmunoassay using a tritium-labeled antigen and compared with that of conventional antibodies (Ab3) raised against 25(OH)D3 3-hemiglutarate conjugated with BSA. The Ab3 could not discriminate the A-ring modified metabolites [1,25(OH)2D3 (87-290%) and 25(OH)D3 3-sulfate (S) (130-180%)], although the cross-reactivities with the side chain modified metabolites were satisfactorily low [24,25(OH)2D3 (2.3-7.4%), 25(OH)D2 (< or = 1.1%)]. On the contrary, the Ab11 easily discriminated 1,25(OH)2D3 (0.10-2.4%) and 25(OH)D3 3S (< 0.3%), whereas significant cross-reactivities were found with 24,25(OH)2D3 (110-120%) and 25,26(OH)2D3 (66-130%) having a dihydroxylated side chain. These results show that the Ab11 are complementary to the A-ring portion of the 25(OH)D3 molecule which is opposite from the side chain structure recognized by the Ab3. Thus, the Ab11 will compensate for insufficient specificity of the Ab3 and are expected to be a useful tool for the pretreatment of biological samples in the development of various analyses of vitamin D metabolites including specific 25(OH)D3 immunoassays using the Ab3.

Abstract
An enzyme immunoassay (EIA) of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3] has been developed as a new methodology for measuring its plasma levels. Three anti-25(OH)D3 antibodies elicited against 25(OH)D3 3-hemisuccinate or -hemiglutarate conjugated with bovine serum albumin were used for this purpose. Two enzyme-labeled antigens were prepared by linking these haptens to beta-galactosidase employing the N-succinimidyl ester method. An EIA system, selected from several combinations of the antibodies and labeled antigens, exhibited higher sensitivity and specificity than those of the conventional competitive protein binding assay. However, direct measurement of plasma specimens gave lower values than those obtained from the ones which were pretreated with a Sephadex LH-20 column followed by a normal-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. This problem has been overcome by employing immunoaffinity chromatography (IAC). In IAC the homologous anti-25(OH)D3 antibody with that used in the EIA was immobilized as a pretreatment method. The IAC/EIA system developed in this study afforded reliable plasma 25(OH)D3 levels which were confirmed by serial dilution study and the recovery test. The 25(OH)D3 levels of healthy volunteers in the summer measured by this method were 25.2 +/- 6.2 ng/ml (n = 10).

Abstract
A liquid chromatography/thermospray mass spectrometry method has been developed and used to measure the plasma levels and half-life of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 in adults. The mean plasma levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 averaged 40 ng ml-1 (n = 4) in summer and 30 ng ml-1 (n = 6) in winter. The method was also used to determine the half-life of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 in subjects maintained on either high or low-fiber diets who had been given an intravenous infusion of (6,19,19-2H3)25-hydroxyvitamin D3 sufficient to label 5% of their estimated body pools. The half-life was determined to be 10.4 days (n = 4), which is approximately 50% of the currently accepted value of 19 days, determined using radiolabeled methods. This difference may be due to kinetic isotope effects arising as a result of the tritiated compounds being labeled at sites that undergo Cyt-P450-catalyzed oxidations.

Abstract
The first practical fluorometric assay of plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25-OH-D3) and 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (24,25-(OH)2D3) is described. The method uses a highly fluorescent dienophile, 4-[2-(6,7-dimethoxy-4-methyl-3-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinoxalyl)ethyl]-1, 2,4- triazoline-3,5-dione (DMEQ-TAD), to fluorescence-label vitamin D. Vitamin D metabolites were roughly purified with a short cartridge column followed by HPLC, labeled with DMEQ-TAD, and the product was analyzed on HPLC. In the assay of 25-OH-D3 the new fluorometric method was compared with the HPLC-uv method and was confirmed to be as accurate and reliable (CV, 4-5%) as the HPLC-uv method. Plasma 24,25-(OH)2D3 was accurately assayed by the HPLC-FL method, where the standard addition method was successfully used to calculate the overall recovery.

Abstract
We studied the effect of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) and granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) on monocytic differentiation of the U937 leukaemic cell line and blasts from patients with AML. 1,25(OH)2D3 and GM-CSF synergistically increased functional and phenotypic aspects of differentiation in the U937 cell line. In addition, the effective concentration of 1,25(OH)2D3 was reduced by up to 100 times in the presence of GM-CSF. GM-CSF alone had little differentiation-inducing effect on AML blasts. 1,25(OH)2D3 induced CD14 antigen expression in 67% AML blast populations and increased functional activation in 36%. 1,25(OH)2D3 and GM-CSF in combination cooperated to further induce CD14 antigen expression in one third of blast populations, while having no further effect on function. Failure to induce functionally effective levels of FcRII antigen on AML blasts following stimulation with 1,25(OH)2D3 and GM-CSF may account for the lack of functional activation.

Abstract
A new method is described for the analysis of vitamin D and its metabolites utilizing thermospray (TSP) mass spectrometry as an on-line detector for high performance liquid chromatography. Ionization conditions were optimized for use with isocratic reversed phase chromatography. TSP mass spectrometry was employed in series with a UV absorbance detector to facilitate comparisons between the two methods of detection. Positive ion TSP mass spectra were recorded for vitamin D2, vitamin D3, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D3), 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) and 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (24,25(OH)2D3). The spectra contained protonated molecular ions, ammonium adduct ions and fragment ions due to the loss of one or more molecules of water. A comparison of quantitative precision was made by determining UV absorbance and TSP standard curves for vitamin D3 using two different methods: (1) External standard method with post-column (post UV detector) addition of ammonium acetate. (2) As (1) but using the method of internal standards with a closely eluting internal standard (vitamin D2). In each case the quantitative precision (correlation coefficient) for UV absorbance detection was superior owing to intrinsic instability of the TSP ion beam. A stable isotopically labelled internal standard was employed in the development of an assay for 1,25(OH)2D3. The assay was used to quantify in vitro enzymic conversion of 25(OH)D3 to 1,25(OH)2D3 in guinea pig and sheep renal mitochondrial incubations. TSP LC/MS was also applied to analysis of an extract of human blood plasma in which D3 and each of its principal metabolites were identified in a single analysis.

Abstract
The fluorogenic dienophile 1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione with a highly fluorescent quinoxalinone group at the 4-position (DMEQ-TAD) was synthesized and exploited as a reagent to assay vitamin D metabolites. 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3, 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, and 24(R),25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 reacted quantitatively with DMEQ-TAD when the two substrates were mixed in dichloromethane at room temperature to yield the corresponding 6,19-cycloadduct. The reaction was very fast so that 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 at a concentration as low as 10(-8) M could be quantitatively labeled with the fluorescent reagent within 30 min at room temperature. With this reagent, down to 10 fmol of vitamin D metabolites could be quantified linearly. The detection limit of the labeled vitamin D using high-performance liquid chromatography was usually about 1 fmol. Thus, it was shown in a model system that the fluorometric method using the new reagent (DMEQ-TAD) can be applied to the assay of the three major vitamin D metabolites in 1 ml of plasma. This is the first practical fluorometric method for assaying the active vitamin D metabolite.

Abstract
The absorption of a pharmacological dose of vitamin D3 from two different lipid vehicles, peanut oil, containing long chain fatty acids, and a medium chain triglyceride was compared. Serial measurements of the serum concentration of vitamin D3 after dosage were made. The serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, the major circulating vitamin D3 metabolite, were also determined. The analytical methods used were based on HPLC. In the fasting state, the serum levels of vitamin D3 were significantly higher after administration in peanut oil than after administration in the medium chain triglyceride. When the vitamin D3 dose was ingested together with food no difference between the two formulations was observed. Only small inter-formulation differences in serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels were detected. The results indicate that the presence of long chain fatty acids facilitates the absorption of vitamin D3.

Abstract
A monoclonal antibody has been used in a sensitive radioimmunoassay that measures 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2 (ercalcitriol) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (calcitriol) with equal potency. This important characteristic has not been reported for any other radioimmunoassay for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D. The two forms can be assayed in human serum together or individually after HPLC separation. Sample preparation entails acetonitrile extraction followed by C18-Sep-pak chromatography and HPLC. The assay measures 98% of added analyte, and achieves inter- and intra-assay coefficients of variation of 10.7% at 34 pg/ml and 7.8% at 81 pg/ml respectively. The limit of detection is 1.25 pg/tube and 50% displacement of bound ligand is achieved at 14 pg/tube. The reference interval is 20-50 pg/ml, mean 35. The correlation between results from the monoclonal radioimmunoassay and an established polyclonal antibody method was r = 0.98, slope 0.99. The assay has particular application in patients treated with vitamin D2 since 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2 can now be measured accurately in the presence of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3.

Abstract
Methods for the measurement of vitamin D and its metabolites using stable isotope-labeled internal standards and mass spectrometry are reviewed. The synthesis of both labeled and unlabeled standards is illustrated, and details of the synthesis of (26,26,27,27,27(-2)H5)-25,26-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and (28,28,28(-2)H3)-24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2 are given. The use of in vitro biologic systems for the production of further metabolites of deuterated 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 is discussed. Use of deuterated 25-hydroxydihydrotachysterol3 as a substrate in the isolated perfused rat kidney has provided valuable data for the assignment of structure to a number of metabolites of 25-hydroxydihydrotachysterol3 formed in this system.

Abstract
We studied the effect of gamma interferon on 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3)-induced differentiation of the human leukaemic cell line U937. Both phenotypic and functional aspects of 1,25(OH)2D3-induced differentiation were significantly augmented by gamma interferon (IFN). Gamma interferon had little effect alone but increased butyrate esterase staining and expression of CD14 antigen and the 40 kD Fc receptor (FcRII) in response to 1,25(OH)2D3. Ability to phagocytose IgG-opsonized bacteria, and superoxide burst in response to both IgG-opsonized bacteria and phorbol ester, was greater after incubation with both IFN and 1,25(OH)2D3 than with either agent alone. The degree of functional activation of cells showed a positive correlation with FcRII expression. In addition, IgG-induced generation of superoxide by differentiated cells was considerably reduced by pre-incubation with the anti-Fc receptor antibody IV3. We conclude that gamma interferon augments 1,25(OH)2D3-induced differentiation and functional activation of the U937 cell line. Increased functional activation may, in part, be due to up-regulation of surface FcR11.

A specific and sensitive assay for the measurement of the concentration of 25-hydroxyvitamin D2, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2 and 25,26-dihydroxyvitamin D2 in a single plasma sample is described, using stable isotope dilution mass fragmentography. After addition of appropriate deuterium-labelled internal standards, plasma samples were treated with acetonitrile to precipitate protein, and vitamin D metabolites were extracted on prepacked microparticulate reverse-phase cartridges. Further purification was achieved using straight-phase cartridges and high-performance liquid chromatography. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was carried out after appropriate derivatisation of samples and standards. The method has been evaluated in terms of specificity, recovery of added standards, and reproducibility.

Abstract
A semi-automated high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the measurement of 25-hydroxyvitamins D(2) and D(3) is described. Plasma was extracted using acetonitrile and a Bond-Elut C(18) cartridge system, eluted with methanol and fractionated on Sep-Pak SIL. After formation of isotachysterol isomers straight-phase HPLC was carried out monitoring the mobile phase with a photodiode array detection system. Two internal standards have been used, namely [(3)H]25-hydroxyvitamin D(3) and 25-hydroxydihydrotachysterol(3) both of which are shown to give satisfactory results. The use of the extraction system described eliminates interference from barbiturates which had previously been reported to interfere. Photodiode array detection allows confirmation of the identity of the analytes.
