The active form of vitamin D, 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3; calcitriol], plays a key role in mineral and bone homeostasis, and exerts potent anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative activities [1]. It is thus a potential pharmacological agent to treat various diseases, including autoimmune disorders, infections and cancer [1].

Association of rs2476601 and rs1544410 with Onset of T1D in Youngsters of Lahore, Pakistan
The PTPN22 gene plays vital role in T1D onset by encoding Lymphoid-specific phosphatase (LYP) that lead to T-cell receptor-associated CsK kinase inactivation and preventing T-cell spontaneous activation by dephosphorylation.

Presence of a Truncated Form of the Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) in a Strain of VDR-Knockout Mice [PDF]
As part of our studies on the membrane-initiated actions of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1α,25(OH)2D3] and its localization in caveolae membrane fractions, we used a vitamin D receptor (VDR)-knockout (KO) mouse model to study the binding of [3H]-1α,25(OH)2D3 in the presumed absence of the VDR.

The impact of VDR expression and regulation in vivo [PDF]
The vitamin D receptor (VDR) mediates the pleiotropic biological actions of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3). These actions include orchestration of mineral homeostasis which is coordinated by the kidney, intestine, bone and parathyroid gland wherein the VDR transcriptionally regulates expression of the genes involved in this complex process ...
