1alpha,25-dihydroxy vitamin D(3) induces nuclear matrix association of the 1alpha,25-dihydroxy vitamin D(3) receptor in osteoblasts independently of its ability to bind DNA.

Abstract excerpt

1alpha,25-dihydroxy vitamin D(3) (vitamin D(3)) has an important role during osteoblast differentiation as it directly modulates the expression of key bone-related genes. Vitamin D(3) binds to the vitamin D(3) receptor (VDR), a member of the superfamily of nuclear receptors, which in turn interacts with transcriptional activators to target this regulatory complex to specific sequence elements within gene...
