Abstract

Synthesis of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-3β-bromoacetate (1,25(OH)2D3-3-BE), a potential anti-cancer agent is presented. We also report that mechanism of action of 1,25(OH)2D3-3-BE may involve reduction of its catabolism, as evidenced by the reduced and delayed expression of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-24-hydroxylase (CYP24) gene in cellular assays.
