Vitamin D, acting through its active metabolite 1, 25 (OH) 2 D 3, exerts its influence on many
physiologic processes in addition to the regulation of calcium and phosphate homeostasis …

Vitamin D has well-documented effects on calcium homeostasis and bone metabolism but
recent studies suggest a much broader role for this secosteroid in human health. Key …

Regulation of immune function continues to be one of the most well recognized extraskeletal
actions of vitamin D. This stemmed initially from the discovery that antigen presenting cells …

Vitamin D has emerged as a pleiotropic regulator of human physiology, and recent work has
