Abstract excerpt
It has long been known that the active metabolite of vitamin D, 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D(3), stimulates differentiation and inhibits proliferation in epidermal keratinocytes through interaction with the vitamin D receptor (VDR). VDR functions through the coordinate binding of vitamin D response elements in the DNA and specific coactivator proteins which help to initiate transcription. It was recently observed that...
