Presence and binding characteristics of calcitriol receptors in human fetal gut [PDF]
In the present study, we show for the first time the presence of calcitriol‐specific binding sites in hypertonic extracts of cells isolated from human fetal small intestine and colon from 13–21 weeks of gestation. Woolf plot analysis of the binding characteristics revealed the presence of a single class of high affinity receptors.

The role of calcium, calcitriol and its receptors in [PDF]
The mechanism of regulation of Parathyroidhormone (PTH)is complex, and diverse factors are involved: the fundamental ones are calcium, calcitriol and phosphorus. Calcium and calcitriol's mechanism of action takes place through its specific receptors, the

Inhibition of nuclear uptake of calcitriol receptor by uremic ultrafiltrate
The biological action of calcitriol is mediated through a hormone-receptor complex interacting with nuclear chromatin. Interaction of the calcitriol receptor (VDR) with VDR response elements produces bioactive proteins which carry out the physiological actions of calcitriol.

Vitamin D, the Vitamin D Receptor, Calcitriol Analogues and Their Link with Ocular Diseases [PDF]
The global prevalence of eye diseases continues to grow, bringing with it a reduction in the activity levels and quality of life of patients, and partial or complete blindness if left untreated. As such, there is considerable interest in identifying more effective therapeutic options and preventive agents.

Inhibition of calcitriol receptor binding to vitamin D response elements by uremic toxins. [PDF]
The genomic action of calcitriol (1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3) is mediated through the interaction of the calcitriol receptor (VDR) with vitamin D response elements (VDREs). Although renal failure is associated with resistance to the action of calcitriol, the mechanism of this resistance is not well understood.

Effect of glucose on the function of the calcitriol receptor and vitamin D metabolism
The genomic action of calcitriol is mediated through the interaction of the calcitriol receptor (VDR) with vitamin D response elements (VDREs) of the target genes. It has been proposed that chemicals capable of Schiff base formation with the VDR potentially could alter the physiological function of VDR and calcitriol metabolism.

Calcitriol-Mediated Hypercalcemia, Somatostatin Receptors Expression and 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3-1α- Hydroxylase in GIST Tumors [PDF]
Hypercalcemia is a common complication in cancer patients Mainly caused by Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) secretion and metastasis. Calcitriol secretion is a rare source of hypercalcemia in solid tumors, especially in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST).

The Calcitriol/Vitamin D Receptor System Regulates Key Immune Signaling Pathways in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia [PDF]
It has been proposed that vitamin D may play a role in prevention and treatment of cancer while epidemiological studies have linked vitamin D insufficiency to adverse disease outcomes in various B cell malignancies, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

Impact of calcitriol and an AKT inhibitor, AT7867, on survival of rat C6 glioma cells
Glioma is the most prevalent and lethal type of primary tumor of central nervous system. The regulatory role of calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D3, has been determined in various cellular processes including cell survival and apoptosis.

Effect of glyoxylate on the function of the calcitriol receptor and vitamin D metabolism
The biological action of calcitriol is mostly mediated through the interaction of the calcitriol receptor (VDR) with vitamin D response elements (VDREs) of target genes. These interactions produce special proteins that carry out the biological activities of calcitriol.
