Vitamin D and Kidney [PDF]

International Journal of Endocrinology, 2013
After absorption from the gut or entry into the circulation from the skin, vitamin D is hydroxylated to 25(OH)D by 25-hydroxylase enzyme in the liver and then to 1α,25(OH)D3 (or calcitriol) by 1α-hydroxylase enzyme in the kidney and in many cells. The hormonal or active form of vitamin D, that is, 1,25(OH)2D3 acts through a nuclear receptor (VDR) to
