Vitamin D level, lipid profile, and vitamin D receptor and transporter gene variants in sickle cell disease patients from Kurdistan of Iraq

2021-03-26

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background.</bold> Sickle cell disease patients are susceptible to the development of vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D through binding to vitamin receptor (VDR) exerts its function and affects gene transcription in target tissues. Also, VDR variants could affect bone mineral density. <bold>Methods.</bold> In a case-control study 101 sickle cell disease patients including 61 SS, 39...
