research Hereditary 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D Resistant Rickets due to a Mutation Causing Multiple Defects in Vitamin D Receptor Function

67 citations , August 2004 in “Endocrinology”

This study identified a novel I268T mutation in the vitamin D receptor that reduces its function, contributing to hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets, and found that a potent vitamin D analog could improve receptor function.

research Mutations in the vitamin D receptor gene in four patients with hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets

24 citations , November 2008 in “Arquivos Brasileiros de Endocrinologia & Metabologia”

In this study, mutations in the vitamin D receptor were identified in Brazilian children with rickets and alopecia, leading to impaired receptor activation and reduced 24-hydroxylase expression.

research Vitamin D and Human Health: Lessons from Vitamin D Receptor Null Mice

1533 citations , October 2008 in “Endocrine reviews”

This research highlights that engineered mice lacking the vitamin D receptor show multiple health issues similar to human vitamin D deficiency, underscoring the widespread impacts of the vitamin D endocrine system.

research The Molecular Biology of the Vitamin D Receptor

22 citations , January 2010 in “Humana Press eBooks”

This chapter discusses the molecular biology of the vitamin D receptor in gene transcription and reports no new results; it highlights recent findings on receptor activity independent of its usual ligand.

Differential Activity of 2-Methylene-19-Nor Vitamin D Analogs on Growth Factor Gene Expression in Rhino Mouse Skin and Comparison to All-Trans Retinoic Acid

research Differential activity of 2-methylene-19-nor vitamin D analogs on growth factor gene expression in rhino mouse skin and comparison to all-trans retinoic acid

2 citations , November 2017 in “PloS one”

This study found that 2MbisP increases epidermal thickening more rapidly than atRA in rhino mice, while both compounds similarly reduce utricle size.
