Methylation of the Vitamin D Receptor Gene in Human Disorders
20 Dec 2023
Abstract excerpt
The Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) mediates the actions of 1,25-Dihydroxvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3), which has important roles in bone homeostasis, growth/differentiation of cells, immune functions, and reduction of inflammation.
