Abstract excerpt
Vitamin D is critical for calcium homeostasis, bone health, and immune regulation via the Vitamin D Receptor. Mutations in the ligand-binding domain and DNA-binding domain can disrupt ligand interactions, causing biologically active metabolite of vitamin D [1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (calcitriol)] resistance and clinical complications such as hereditary rickets and immune dysregulation. This study explored the...
