Abstract

The 25(OH)D 3 /1,25 (OH) 2 D 3 24-hydroxylase (24-hydroxylase) displays an induction profile responsive to vitamin D (D) abundance and is hence only observed in normal extracellular Ca 2+ concentrations. However, the participation of Ca 2+ in the expression of the 24-hydroxylase gene in vivo is not known. The present studies investigate the role played by the circulating Ca 2+ and the D 3 and/or 1,25(OH) 2 D 3 status on the 1,25(OH) 2 D 3 -mediated inducibility of the 24-hydroxylase gene in rat duodenum. Hypocalcemic D-depleted rats were supplemented with calcium alone to normalize serum Ca 2+ without normalizing the D 3 status or were acutely or chronically supplemented with D 3 or 1,25(OH) 2 D 3 . Messenger RNA for the 24-hydroxylase was undetectable in the intestine of hypocalcemic D-depleted rats, and short- or long-term calcium supplementation was completely unsuccessful in inducing its expression. By contrast, acute 1,25(OH) 2 D 3 administration led to significant increases in the levels of expression of the gene which was independent of the calcium intake, the prevailing circulating Ca 2+ , and the D 3 or 1,25(OH) 2 D 3 status. Moreover, 24-hydroxylase gene expression was only found to respond to acutely administered 1,25(OH) 2 D 3 , the mRNA levels being unaltered following continuous exposure to physiological or pharmacological doses of the hormone for 7 days. Time-course studies revealed, however, that induction of the gene was clearly apparent early in the 1,25(OH) 2 D 3 supplementation course but gradually faded by 3 days to return to basal uninduced levels by 7 days, suggesting the presence of intestinal adaptation mechanism(s) which down-regulated the responsiveness in the continuous presence of 1,25 (OH) 2 D 3 . Our data show the lack of effect of calcium alone or in combination with 1,25(OH) 2 D 3 on the in vivo induction of the 24-hydroxylase gene expression in rat intestine. By rapidly reacting to surges in 1,25(OH) 2 D 3 concentrations, the 24-hydroxylase efficiently controls the amount of 1,25(OH) 2 D 3 in intestine as the first step in the biotransformation pathway aimed at the irreversible clearance of the secosteroid hormone.

4. Parcours d'une coopérative agroalimentaire : Purdel, 1928-2008

Author

Lemay, Jacques and Lemay, Jacques

Abstract

En 2008, la Coop Purdel célèbre son quatre-vingtième anniversaire. Peu de coopératives agricoles au Québec peuvent se vanter d'avoir une histoire si longue et si fertile en rebondissements, façonnée à la fois par les facilités qui lui ont été offertes, mais aussi par les difficultés qu'elle a rencontrées. Cette petite entreprise, qui a connu des débuts difficiles pendant la grande crise économique des années 1930, a su se développer après la Seconde Guerre mondiale comme principale coopérative dans toute la région bas-laurentienne et même dans les régions limitrophes de la Côte-Nord, de la Gaspésie et du Nouveau-Brunswick, surtout par son secteur laitier. Plus récemment, après avoir cédé ses activités laitières, la coopérative a recentré ses actions dans le développement de l'agriculture régionale en réorganisant le secteur de l'approvisionnement à la ferme, par la création d'une filière porcine et d'une production avicole d'importance. L'histoire de Purdel démontre l'enracinement d'une coopérative dans son milieu. Elle favorise l'éducation à la solidarité et à la démocratie ainsi que l'engagement et la participation active des jeunes dont le but est d'améliorer leur bien-être et de prendre en charge le développement économique de leur région. Héritière d'un passé enviable, la coopérative est en mesure de relever encore aujourd'hui d'autres défis propres à ce début de siècle, comme les effets de la mondialisation sur l'agriculture, la chute des revenus agricoles, le prix exorbitant des terres ou encore la crise qui sévit dans certains secteurs de production. Dans ce contexte, les réalisations et les succès du passé deviennent autant de messages d'espoir pour les successeurs. Diplômé de l'Université de Montréal et détenteur d'un doctorat en histoire moderne de l'Université d'Aix-Marseille, Jacques Lemay enseigne depuis 1972 à l'Université du Québec à Rimouski. Il a été président de la Société d'histoire du Bas-Saint-Laurent de 1985 à 1997 en plus de siéger comme admi
