Elevated 1-α Hydroxylase Activity in Monocytes from Patients with Active Tuberculosis
A uremic patient developed hypercalcemia after tuberculosis infection, and his ionized calcium levels correlated with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) levels. We performed further studies to determine whether monocytes are alternative sites of 1,25(OH)2D3 conversion beyond renal tubular cells....
