Background:

Calcipotriol is an analogue of vitamin D3. [1]

Calcipotriol is a ligand of VDR-like receptors and is used as a first-line topical agent in the treatment of psoriasis.[1-2] Calcipotriol is much less effective in causing hypercalcemia.[3] The vitamin D receptor is found on the cells of many different tissues including T cells of the immune system. T cells are known to play a role in psoriasis, and the binding of calcipotriol to VDR modulates the T cells gene transcription of cell differentiation and proliferation related genes. Calcipotriol induced apoptosis in eratinocytes isolated from psoriatic plaques at 100 nM for 20 h.[4] Calcipotriol also induced autophagy in both HeLa cells and keratinocytes.[2] Calcipotriol inhibited the proliferation of HL-60 and MCF-7 cells dose-dependently from 1 nM-1000 nM.[5] Calcipotriol is a potent inducer of terminal differentiation in cultured human keratinocytes.[3] Calcipotriol also decreased the mRNA expression/production of human cathelicidin antimicrobial protein (hCAP18) and LL37 peptide by IL-17A/IL-22-stimulated keratinocytes at 40 nM.[6]
