The vitamin D endocrine systems plays a critical role in calcium and phosphate homeostasis. The active form of vitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3[1,25(OH)2D3], binds with high affinity to a specific cellular receptor that acts as a ligand-activated transcription factor.

Vitamin D and Vitamin D Dependency

2015
Administration of large doses of vitamin D2 brought about a marked increase of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in both the patients with vitamin D dependency and hypophosphatemic vitamin D-resistant rickets. During the administration of vitamin D2, increment of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D was marked in hypophosphatemic vitamin D-resistant rickets, but far smaller in ...

The primary source of vitamin D is the skin, following exposure to ultraviolet radiation. Vitamin D is well known for its effects on stimulating calcium absorption and is thus essential for maintenance of normal bone. It is also important for muscle function and has more recently been implicated in protection against several diseases including diabetes.

Vitamin D and Sleep Regulation: Is there a Role for Vitamin D?

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2020
Background: Vitamin D exerts multiple pleiotropic effects beyond its role in calcium-phosphate metabolism. Growing evidence suggests an association between hypovitaminosis D and sleep disorders, thus increasing the interest in the role of this vitamin in the regulatory mechanisms of the sleep-wake cycle.
