Side effectsThe hypercalcemia resulting from hypervitaminosis D is responsible for toxic symptoms such as muscle weakness, bone pain, anorexia, ectopic calcification, hypertension, and cardiac arrhythmias. Toxicity in infants can result in mental and physical retardation, renal failure, and death. ...
Vitamin A is important for maintaining healthy and good eyesight. It helps in fighting against infections and protects us from different types of eye disorders.
Ultraviolet B radiation is responsible for various effects on human health. Beneficial effects as the synthesis of vitamin D, but also detrimental ones, as the development of skin cancer. Concern about the risk of skin cancer led to the diffusion of large-scale photo protection. The purpose of...
Skin Color Change in Caucasian Postmenopausal Women Predicts Summer-Winter Change in 25-Hydroxyvitamin D:Findings from the ANSAViD Cohort Study Context:UV radiation is responsible for vitamin D synthesis and skin tanning. Longitudinal data relating skin color to vitamin D status are lacking. Object.....
Correcting vitamin D levels may improve muscle strength. Methods This is a double-blinded, randomized controlled trial to investigate the effects of vitamin D supplementation during the post-operative period on quadriceps muscle strength in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-injured patients. Patients aged...
B Zhao,L Ran,Y Fang,F Yu,D Jie 摘要: The suppressive function of vitamin D on oral lichen planus (OLP) have been documented previously. Vitamin D receptor (VDR) expression is down-regulated in OLP, but the molecular mechanism of its decrease and the related anti-inflammatory contributor ...
Microbiota derived metabolites act as chemical messengers that elicit a profound impact on host physiology. Vitamin D receptor (VDR) is a key genetic factor for shaping the host microbiome. However, it remains unclear how microbial metabolites are altered in the absence of VDR. We investigated meta...
Vitamin D, traditionally known as an essential nutrient, is a precursor of a potent steroid hormone that regulates a broad spectrum of physiological processes. In addition to its classical roles in bone metabolism, epidemiological, preclinical, and cellu
