25-Hydroxycholecalciferol Inhibits Cell Growth and Induces Apoptosis in SiHa Cervical Cells via Autocrine Vitamin D Metabolism

Preclinical studies show that the anticancer actions of vitamin D metabolites are mediated by apoptosis, inhibition of cell proliferation and induction of cell cycle arrest. Cervical cancer cells express an autocrine vitamin D metabolising system (VDMS) comprised of a vitamin D receptor, vitamin D c...
