Vitamin D receptor ligands for osteoporosis.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
1alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-(OH)2D3), the biologically active metabolite of vitamin D, mediates its actions via the vitamin D receptor (VDR), a member of the superfamily of steroid/thyroid hormone/retinoid receptors. 1,25-(OH)2D3 is required for calcium and phosphorus homeostasis, and for normal skeletal development as well as maintenance of skeletal architecture. Two VDR ligands, calcitriol (1,25-(OH)2D3) and its synthetic analog alfacalcidol (1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D3), have been approved for the treatment of osteoporosis. However, the use of calcitriol and alfacalcidol is limited by their major side effect, hypercalcemia, which is mediated mainly by VDR activity in the small intestine. In order to identify VDR ligands with less hypercalcemia liability, a number of pharmaceutical companies are pursuing efforts to develop synthetic vitamin D analogs. This review discusses the mechanism of action of vitamin D, and summarizes the currently approved anti-osteoporotic VDR agonists and compounds that are under development. The future directions of vitamin D research for the discovery of novel VDR agonists for osteoporosis are also discussed.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
