Regulation of Mycobacterium-specific mononuclear cell responses by 25-hydroxyvitamin D3.
The active vitamin D metabolite, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25(OH)(2)D(3)), has been shown to be an important regulator of innate and adaptive immune function. In addition, synthesis of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) from 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3) (25(OH)D(3)) by the enzyme 1α-hydroxylase in monocytes upon activat...
