Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: rs2228570 is the only known single nucleotide polymorphism of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) that alters the protein structure. VDRs can be distinguished using the restriction endonuclease FokI and accordingly divided into three genotypes: FF, Ff, and ff. Influence of rs2228570 on transcriptional activation by VDRs in human gingival fibroblasts (hGFs) and periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs) is...
