Effect of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 on interferon gamma production in vitro

, 1988
In recent years, receptors for calcitriol (the active form of vitamin D3) have been identified in monocytes and activated, but not resting, human B and T lymphocytes suggesting that it may be involved in immune regulation. Because lymphokines are central

Role of calcitriol in regulating maternal bone and mineral metabolism during pregnancy, lactation, and post-weaning recovery

, 2017
Maternal physiology adapts throughout reproductive phases to meet the mineral needs of the fetuses and neonates. During pregnancy, intestinal calcium absorption doubles; conversely, during lactation, calcium is resorbed from the skeleton.
