Abstract
INTRODUCTION Accumulation of β2-microglobulin (B2M) in dialysis patients contributes to several comorbidities of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). The LIXELLE® device adsorbs B2M from blood using sorbent bead technology. Studies in Japan showed that LIXELLE treatment during hemodialysis (HD) at blood flow rates up to 250 mL/min removes B2M above HD alone and is well tolerated. We investigated tolerance for LIXELLE treatment during HD at higher HD blood flow rates standard in the USA. METHODS A prospective, open-label, non-randomized, single-arm, early-feasibility study (EFS) assessed tolerance and safety of LIXELLE treatment during HD at blood flow rates up to 450 mL/min. ESKD patients (40-75 years old) on thrice weekly outpatient HD were eligible. After a 1-week HD run-in, patients received LIXELLE plus HD at a blood flow rate of 250 mL/min (1 week), followed by LIXELLE plus HD at a blood flow rate up to 450 mL/min (1 week). These blood flow rates were tested with three LIXELLE column sizes in sequence (treatment = 6 weeks). B2M removal was assessed for each combination. RESULTS Ten patients with a historic intradialytic hypotension (IDH) rate of 0.42 events/HD session/patient were enrolled. Nine patients completed all combinations without IDH events (treatment IDH rate: 0.56 events/HD session/patient). No treatment-emergent serious adverse events or significant changes in red blood cell, platelet, or complement indices except haptoglobin were reported. B2M reduction ratios and removal of select proteins (<40 kDa) increased with escalating column size and blood flow rate. CONCLUSION LIXELLE plus HD across all column sizes was safe and well tolerated at blood flow rates up to 450 mL/min. Extent of B2M removal corresponded to column size-blood flow rate combinations. This EFS provides a risk profile to guide further studies of LIXELLE in ESKD patients at US-standard blood flow rates.

Abstract
Targeting immune-mediated, age-related, biology has the potential to be a transformative therapeutic strategy. However, the redundant nature of the multiple cytokines that change with aging requires identification of a master downstream regulator to successfully exert therapeutic efficacy. Here, we discovered CCR3 as a prime candidate, and inhibition of CCR3 has pro-cognitive benefits in mice, but these benefits are not driven by an obvious direct action on central nervous system (CNS)-resident cells. Instead, CCR3-expressing T cells in the periphery that are modulated in aging inhibit infiltration of these T cells across the blood-brain barrier and reduce neuroinflammation. The axis of CCR3-expressing T cells influencing crosstalk from periphery to brain provides a therapeutically tractable link. These findings indicate the broad therapeutic potential of CCR3 inhibition in a spectrum of neuroinflammatory diseases of aging.

Abstract
Abstract
Eotaxin, a potent pro-inflammatory mediator, is a chemokine whose levels in plasma increase with age. CCR3, the primary receptor for eotaxin, is expressed on immune cells such as eosinophils and subsets of T lymphocytes, making it a potential therapeutic target for age-related inflammation. Using the CCR3 selective antagonist AKST4290 we aimed to assess the effects of modulating eotaxin/CCR3 signaling in mouse models of aging, inflammation and peripheral immune cell infiltration.
In an aging model, using 18-month-old C57BL/6 mice, AKST4290 treatment reverted the increased blood levels of immune cells to those seen in young mice, with no effects on immune cell levels in young mice.
In inflammation models, using either 8-week-old SKH1-Elite mice challenged with Oxazolone or 8-week-old C57BL/6 mice challenged with LPS, AKST4290 reverted the increased blood levels of immune cells to baseline levels and did not affect cell types unchanged by the stressors. In contrast, Dexamethasone produced a broad, non-specific, decrease of total white blood cells and critical subpopulations.
In an immune cell infiltration model, using 8-week-old C57BL/6 mice challenged with experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), AKST4290 significantly decreased EAE-induced T cell infiltration and microgliosis in the brain.
These findings suggest that AKST4290 is a potent immunomodulator that normalizes immune cell populations related to inflammation to healthy levels, both in the context of disease and aging. These immune modulatory and anti-inflammatory effects have functional consequences in aging models, indicating its therapeutic potential in multiple age-related disorders.

Abstract
The role for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and/or calcium in hair follicle cycling is not clear despite their impact on keratinocyte differentiation. We found that calbindin-D9k null (knockout) pups generated from calbindin-D9k knockout females fed a vitamin D-deficient, low-calcium (0.47%) diet develop transient alopecia. The pups appear phenotypically normal until 13 days of age, after which the hair progressively sheds in a caudocephalic direction, resulting in truncal alopecia totalis by 20-23 days, with spontaneous recovery by 28 days. Histological studies showed markedly dystrophic hair follicles, loss of hair shafts with increased apoptosis, and hyperplastic epidermis during this time. Ha1 expression is lost during catagen in all mice but recovers more slowly in the knockout pups on the vitamin D-deficient, low-calcium diet. Keratin 1 expression is reduced throughout days 19-28. The expressions of involucrin, loricrin, and cathepsin L is initially increased by day 19 but subsequently falls below those of controls by day 23, as does that of desmoglein 3. Feeding the mothers a high-vitamin D/high-calcium (2%)/lactose (20%) diet lessens the phenotype, and knockout pups fostered to mothers fed a normal diet do not develop alopecia. Our results show that in calbindin-D9k knockout pups, a maternal vitamin D-deficient/low-calcium diet leads to transient noncicatricial alopecia.

Abstract
Vitamin D sufficiency is associated with protection against malignancy in a number of tissues clinically, and a strong body of evidence from animal and cell culture studies supports this protective role. Cancers in the skin differ, however, in that higher serum levels of 25OHD are associated with increased basal cell carcinomas (BCC), the most common form of epidermal malignancy. This result may be interpreted as indicating the role of UVR (spectrum 280-320) in producing vitamin D in the skin as well as causing those DNA mutations and proliferative changes that lead to epidermal malignancies. Recent animal studies have shown that mice lacking the vitamin D receptor (VDR) are predisposed to developing skin tumors either from chemical carcinogens such as 7,12-dimethylbenzanthracene (DMBA) or chronic UVR exposure. Such studies suggest that vitamin D production and subsequent signaling through the VDR in the skin may have evolved in part as a protective mechanism against UVR induced epidermal cancer formation. In this manuscript we provide evidence indicating that vitamin D signaling protects the skin from cancer formation by controlling keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation, facilitating DNA repair, and suppressing activation of the hedgehog (Hh) pathway following UVR exposure. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled 'Vitamin D Workshop'.

Abstract
A novel experimental facility to carry out simultaneous polarized neutron reflectometry (PNR) and anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) measurements is presented. Performing both techniques at the same time increases their strength considerably. The proof of concept of this method is demonstrated on a CoO/Co bilayer exchange bias system. Although information on the same phenomena, such as the coercivity or the reversal mechanism, can be separately obtained from either of these techniques, the simultaneous application optimizes the consistency between both. In this way, possible differences in experimental conditions, such as applied magnetic field amplitude and orientation, sample temperature, magnetic history, etc., can be ruled out. Consequently, only differences in the fundamental sensitivities of the techniques can cause discrepancies in the interpretation between the two. The almost instantaneous information obtained from AMR can be used to reveal time-dependent effects during the PNR acquisition. Moreover, the information inferred from the AMR measurements can be used for optimizing the experimental conditions for the PNR measurements in a more efficient way than with the PNR measurements alone.

Abstract
Mice null for the Vitamin D receptor (VdrKO) have a disrupted first hair follicle cycle and aborted subsequent hair follicle cycling. We examined the expression of different markers and mediators of hair follicle cycling in the hair follicle of the VdrKO mouse during days 13-22 when the hair follicle normally initiates and completes the first catagen. We compared the expression of those genes in mice with a nonsense mutation in hairless (Rhino), which have a similar alopecia phenotype, and to Cyp27b1 null mice which are deficient in the production of 1,25(OH)2D3, the Vdr ligand, but display normal hair follicle cycling. Our results demonstrate the down regulation of hair follicle markers and the alteration of expression of hedgehog (Hh), Wnt, Fgf, and Tgfbeta pathways in VdrKO and Rhino mice, but not in Cyp27b1KO mice. Treatment of VdrKO mice with an agonist to the Hh pathway partially restored hair follicle cycling, suggesting a role of this pathway in the regulation of hair follicle cycling by VDR. These results suggest that Vdr regulates directly or indirectly the expression of genes required for hair follicle cycling, including Hh signaling, independent of 1,25(OH)2D3.

Abstract
The transcriptional activity of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) is regulated by a number of coactivator and corepressor complexes, which bind to the VDR in a ligand (1,25(OH)2D3) dependent (coactivators) or inhibited (corepressors) process. In the keratinocyte the major coactivator complexes include the vitamin D interacting protein (DRIP) complex and the steroid receptor coactivator (SRC) complexes. These coactivator complexes are not interchangeable in their regulation of keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation. We found that the DRIP complex is the main complex binding to VDR in the proliferating keratinocyte, whereas SRC2 and 3 and their associated proteins are the major coactivators binding to VDR in the differentiated keratinocyte. Moreover, we have found a specific role for DRIP205 in the regulation of beta-catenin pathways regulating keratinocyte proliferation, whereas SRC3 uniquely regulates the ability of 1,25(OH)2D3 to induce more differentiated functions such as lipid synthesis and processing required for permeability barrier formation and the innate immune response triggered by disruption of the barrier. These findings provide a basis by which we can understand how one receptor (VDR) and one ligand (1,25(OH)2D3) can regulate a large number of genes in a sequential and differentiation specific fashion.

Abstract
The vitamin D receptor (VDR) regulates a diverse set of genes that control processes including bone mineral homeostasis, immune function, and hair follicle cycling. Upon binding to its natural ligand, 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3), the VDR undergoes a conformational change that allows the release of corepressor proteins and the binding of coactivator proteins necessary for gene transcription. We report the first comprehensive evaluation of the interaction of the VDR with a library of coregulator binding motifs in the presence of two ligands, the natural ligand 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) and a synthetic, nonsecosteroidal agonist LG190178. We show that the VDR has relatively high affinity for the second and third LxxLL motifs of SRC1, SRC2, and SRC3 and second LxxLL motif of DRIP205. This pattern is distinct in comparison to other nuclear receptors. The pattern of VDR-coregulator binding affinities was very similar for the two agonists investigated, suggesting that the biologic functions of LG190178 and 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) are similar. Hairless binds the VDR in the presence of ligand through a LxxLL motif (Hr-1), repressing transcription in the presence and absence of ligand. The VDR binding patterns identified in this study may be used to predict functional differences among different tissues expressing different sets of coregulators, thus facilitating the goal of developing tissue- and gene-specific vitamin D response modulators.

Abstract
The objectives of this research were to study the effects of high intensity (0.5, 0.75, and 1.0 mW/cm (2)), dose (0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 J/cm (2)), and postharvest time (1 and 4 days) on the vitamin D 2 formation in Portabella mushrooms ( Agaricus bisporus) as a result of UV-B exposure, as well as the vitamin D 2 degradation in treated mushrooms during storage. Within each intensity application, dose had the largest effect where more exposure converted more vitamin D 2 from ergosterol. Similar dose across each intensity application resulted in similar vitamin D 2 concentration. Practical commercial production requires as short a treatment time as possible, and intensity was a major factor from this standpoint where the time it took to achieve a similar vitamin D 2 concentration for similar dose exposure was significantly reduced as intensity increased. By using an intensity of 1.0 mW/cm (2) at a dose of 0.5 J/cm (2), the concentration of vitamin D 2 produced was 3.83 microg/g dry solids of mushrooms in 8 min, whereas using an intensity of 0.5 mW/cm (2) at a dose of 0.5 J/cm (2), the concentration of vitamin D 2 produced was 3.75microg/g dry solids of mushrooms in 18 min. Also, postharvest time did not have a significant effect on vitamin D 2 formation in mushrooms that were treated 1 and 4 days after harvest. Vitamin D 2 degraded in treated mushrooms during storage by apparent first-order kinetics, where the degradation rate constant was 0.025 h (-1). The information provided in this study will help mushroom producers develop commercial-scale UV treatment processes to add value to their crop while improving consumer health.

Abstract
Keratinocyte differentiation requires the sequential regulation of gene expression. We have explored the role of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) and its receptor (VDR) in this process. VDR sequentially binds to coactivator complexes such as Vitamin D receptor interacting protein (DRIP) and steroid receptor coactivator (SRC) during differentiation. Different genes respond differently to the VDR/coactivator complexes as determined by knockdown studies. The binding of DRIP205 and SRC to VDR is ligand (i.e. 1,25(OH)(2)D(3)) dependent. LXXLL motifs in these coactivators are critical for this binding; however, the affinity for VDR of the different LXXLL motifs in these coactivators varies. Hairless is an inhibitor of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) dependent gene transcription. A phiXXphiphi motif in hairless is crucial for hairless binding to VDR, and its binding is ligand independent. 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) displaces hairless and recruits the coactivators to VDREs. Hsp90 and p23 are chaperone proteins recruited to the DRIP/VDR complex, where they block the binding of the complex to VDREs and block 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) stimulated transcription. Thus four mechanisms explain the ability of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) to sequentially regulate gene transcription during differentiation: changes in coregulator levels, their differential binding to VDR, differential gene responsiveness to the VDR/coregulator complexes, and chaperone proteins facilitating the cycling of VDR/coregulator complexes on and off the VDREs.
