Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The cytochromes P450 are a superfamily of enzymes that control the synthesis of the biologically active form of vitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. These enzymes contribute to the formation of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, which starts with a 25-hydroxylation by CYP2R1 and CYP27A1 and a subsequent 1α-hydroxylation via CYP27B1. METHODS: By using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR),...
