Vitamin D receptor and vitamin D binding protein gene polymorphisms in patients with asthma
2022-12-09
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Vitamin D and its metabolites are transported to tissues and cells bound to a specific vitamin D binding protein (VDBP also known as GC-globulin). Most biological actions of this vitamin are exerted through the vitamin D receptor (VDR). Polymorphisms in VDR or VDBP genes may affect vitamin D level, influencing the pathogenesis of asthma. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible a...
