Sun exposure, vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms, and risk of advanced prostate cancer.

Cancer research - 15 Jun 2005

John Esther M, Schwartz Gary G, Koo Jocelyn, Van Den Berg David, Ingles Sue A

Abstract excerpt

Substantial experimental evidence indicates that the hormonal form of vitamin D promotes the differentiation and inhibits the proliferation, invasiveness, and metastasis of human prostatic cancer cells. Results from epidemiologic studies of vitamin D status and/or vitamin D receptor (VDR) polymorphisms and prostate cancer risk have been mixed. We conducted a population-based, case-control study of advanced...
