| Bioactivity | Eldecalcitol (ED-71) is an orally active vitamin D3 analogue, inhibits bone resorption and increases bone mineral density. Eldecalcitol (ED-71) displays anti-tumor effect and inhibits cell proliferation, migration and induces apoptosis by suppressing GPx-1[1][2][3][4]. |
| Invitro | Eldecalcitol (0-50 nM; 24 h) displays no cytotoxicity, and (0.5-50 nM; 24 h) reduces cell death induced by LPS (5 μg/mL)[2].Eldecalcitol (5 nM; 24 h) inhibits the LPS-induced pyroptosis by activating Nrf2 and its effector molecule HO-1[2].Eldecalcitol (0.5-50 nM; 24 h) exhibits anti-pyroptotic ability, and decreases NLRP3, caspase-1, and IL-1β expression dose-dependently[3].Eldecalcitol (0.04-40 nM; 0-48 h) inhibits the proliferation and migration of SCC-15 and CAL-27 cells[3].Eldecalcitol (0.4 nM; 48 h) arrests cell cycle at G0/G1 phase and induces apoptosis by suppressing the expression of GPx-1 (glutathione peroxidase) in OSCC cells[3].
