Background: In recent years, the relevance of vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene restriction
fragment length polymorphisms for various types of cancer has been investigated by a great …

Higher vitamin D exposure is hypothesized to prevent several cancers, possibly through
genomic effects modulated by the vitamin D receptor (VDR), and autocrine/paracrine …

Increasing scientific evidence supports the link between vitamin D and cancer risk. The
active metabolite 1, 25 (OH) 2D exerts its activity by binding to the vitamin D receptor (VDR) …

Background-Data exist that demonstrate isoflavones' potent antiproliferative effects on
prostate cancer cells. We evaluated the efficacy of isoflavone in patients with PSA recurrent …

The oxidized DNA base 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) is implicated in neuronal CAG repeat
expansion associated with Huntington disease, yet it is unclear how such a DNA base lesion …

Vitamin D plays a significant role in our health, including cancer incidence and mortality.
Vitamin D receptor (VDR) single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may affect its activity …

A review of the recent surge in research related to the effect of plant products in cancer
treatment, Bioactive Foods and Extracts: Cancer Treatment and Prevention organizes cutting …

Although the association between CAG and GGN repeats in the androgen receptor gene
and prostate cancer risk has been widely studied, it remains controversial from previous …

In 1969 the nuclear vitamin D receptor (VDR) for 1α25 (OH) 2D3 was discovered. 1 Since
then, the role of VDR in the endocrine system and its presence and function in over 30 …

Vitamin D3, a prohormone, is converted to circulating calcidiol and then to calcitriol, the
hormone that binds to the vitamin D receptor (VDR)(a nuclear transcription factor) …
