Component
1-alpha,24R,25-Trihydroxyvitamin D2
C24R-hydroxylated product of CYP24A1 oxidation of the D2 hormone.
2 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.
How nutrients influence it
Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.
Other things that act on it
Enzymes, hormones, genes, and other components with a recorded effect. These are not nutrients, so they do not count toward the arrows above. Each finding names the chapter that recorded it.
How nutrients reach it in more than one step
Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What it does
Every recorded relationship this component is part of, grouped by its role. Plain wording comes first; the technical statement follows.
What acts on it
Human CYP24A1 initiated active 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2 oxidation through C24R hydroxylation.

Complete structured claim and evidence
Where it participates (unsigned role)
Purified rat CYP24A1 produced a C24R-hydroxylated metabolite from active D2 but no detectable calcitroic acid under conditions that generated calcitroic acid from calcitriol.
Experimental context and source evidence
- cross_nutrient
- false
- evidence_location
- Primary abstract, purified-enzyme HPLC results.
- experimental_model
- Purified rat CYP24A1 with HPLC product analysis
- exposure
- Active D2 versus D3 substrates; detailed dose/time unavailable in abstract.
- limitations
- Negative detection is assay-specific. Rat enzyme behavior is not a claim that humans cannot metabolize D2 further.
