Vitamin D receptor and calcium sensing receptor polymorphisms and the risk of colorectal cancer in European populations.

Increased levels of vitamin D and calcium may play a protective role in colorectal cancer (CRC) risk. It has been suggested that these effects may be mediated by genetic variants of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and the calcium sensing receptor (CASR). However, current epidemiologic evidence from Eur...
