Secalciferol is a metabolite of Vitamin D, a possibly anti-inflammatory steroid which is involved in bone ossification. IC50 value: Target: In addition, it is known that Secalciferol mediates calcium and phosphorus homeostasis. Also Secalciferol inhibits calcium channels in osteosarcoma cells via suppressing the effects of 1α, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and testosterone. Alternate studies indicate that Secalciferol can decrease the abundance of p53 and Pi-induced cytochrome c translocation. Furthermore, Secalciferol can increase cell proliferation in resting zone (RC) chondrocytes and inhibits matrix enzymes by possibly inhibiting the degradation of the matrix.
*The compound is unstable in solutions, freshly prepared is recommended

| Km factor | 3 | 6 | 12 | 8 | 5 | 20 |
| Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by | Animal B Km |
| Animal A Km |
For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.
