Vitamin D Receptor Gene Polymorphism: An Important Predictor of Arthritis Development
18 Mar 2019
Abstract excerpt
Vitamin D is an anti-inflammatory molecule and has a role in prevention of arthritis development. Biologically active form 1, 25(OH)2D3 of vitamin D can only exert its action after binding its definite vitamin D receptor encoded by VDR gene. VDR gene polymorphism leads to dysfunctioning of 1, 25(OH)2D3 ultimately disease onset. The purpose of current study was to evaluate the effect of vitamin D level and VDR...
