We previously demonstrated that 17β-estradiol (E2) regulates the transcription and
expression of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) in rat colonocytes and duodenocytes in vivo. The …

The present study assesses the effects of two isoflavones, genistein and glycitein, and equol–
a product of intestinal bacterial metabolism of dietary isoflavones, on vitamin D receptor …

This study was designed to provide a direct demonstration of the importance of caveolin-1 in
the compartmentalization of estrogen receptor β (ERβ) to the membrane, thus allowing 7β …

Calcitriol (1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D 3), the hormonally active metabolite of vitamin D, exerts
its anti-proliferative activity in breast cancer (BCa) cells by multiple mechanisms including …

1, 25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1, 25 (OH) 2D3), the active form of Vitamin D, mediates gene
transcription through the Vitamin D receptor (VDR), a nuclear receptor expressed in multiple …

This report describes an investigation of the role of 1, 25‐dihydroxyvitamin D (VD3) in the
regulation of estrogen receptor‐α (ER) in the ER‐positive breast cancer cell line, MCF‐7 …

1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1, 25 (OH) 2D3), a steroid hormone derived from Vitamin D3, is a
negative growth regulator of breast cancer cells, and Vitamin D3 analogs represent a novel …

Abstract 1α, 25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1, 25 (OH) 2D3], the active metabolite of vitamin D, is a
potent inhibitor of breast cancer cell growth. Because the estrogen receptor (ER) plays a key …

The active form of vitamin D3, 1α, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1, 25-(OH) 2D3] is key mediator
of calcium homeostasis and is a component of the complex homeostatic system of the skin …

In intestinal cells, as in other target cells, the steroid hormone 1α, 25 (OH) 2-Vitamin D3 (1α,
25 (OH) 2D3) regulates gene expression via the specific intracellular Vitamin D receptor and …
