1á,25(OH)2-VITAMIN D3 IN PROSTATE: INTERSECTION WITH AKT/PTEN AXIS AND ROLE IN SENESCENCE
… p27 levels and function. 1-alpha, 25-dihydroxy vitamin D<sub>3</sub> (1á,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub>) inhibits proliferation of multiple cancer cell types, including prostate cancer cells, and upregulates p21 and/or p27. We hypothesized that inhibition of the PI3K/AKT pathway would synergize …

Role of Vitamin-D3 and Retinoic Acid In A Human Thp-1 Macrophage Model of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Infection
… the activating effects of retinoic acid (RA) and vitamin D3 (VD) on macrophages in relation to the viability of Mtb. A combination of these vitamins (RAVD) enhanced the receptors on THP-1 macrophage (Mannose receptor and DC-SIGN) that increased mycobacterial uptake but inhibited the<br …

The Estimation of Vitamin D2, Vitamin D3, and Their 25-Hydroxy Metabolites in Animal Tissues and Foods (Hplc)
Nutritional and compositional studies of vitamin D have been hampered by the lack of a quick, sensitive, direct method of measuring vitamin D in tissues and foods. Past studies have relied on biological assays which are time consuming, expensive, equivocate total antirachitic activity with vitamin …

Analyzing Vitamin D3 Supplementation and Deficiency in the Spinal Cord of Transgenic G93A Mouse Model of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Vitamin D3 (D3) may impact ALS, a motoneurodegenerative disease. The study analyzed D3 supplementation at 50x the adequate intake (AI) and restriction at 2.5% the AI in the spinal cord of transgenic G93A, a mouse model of ALS. At 25 d, mice were provided food ad libitum with adequate (AI;1 IU D3/g …

The Effect of 1,25-Dihydroxy Vitamin D3 on AT1 Cell Receptor Expression in Human Iliac Artery Endothelial Cells (HIAEC)
… have shown an inverse relationship between Vitamin D3 and blood pressure (Li et al., 2002). While studies have been performed on vitamin D's effect on renin expression, little is known about vitamin D's effect on the angiotensin II high-affinity type 1 (ATi) receptor. The hypothesis for this …

Radiation Sensitization of Breast Cancer Cells by Vitamin D Through the Promotion of Autophagic Cell Death
… approaches involves combining the active form of vitamin D, 1,25-di hydroxy vitamin D3 or its analogs with radiotherapy. Our proposed studies were designed to build upon and extend previous work from this laboratory focused on determining the nature of cell death when vitamin D3 is combined with …
