Vitamin D up-regulates the vitamin D receptor by protecting it from proteasomal degradation in human CD4+ T cells.
The active form of vitamin D3, 1,25(OH)2D3, has significant immunomodulatory properties and is an important determinant in the differentiation of CD4+ effector T cells. The biological actions of 1,25(OH)2D3 are mediated by the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and are believed to correlate with the VDR prote...
