25-Hydroxyvitamin D Inhibits Hepatitis C Virus Production in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cell Line by a Vitamin D Receptor-Independent Mechanism

25-Hydroxyvitamin D Inhibits Hepatitis C Virus Production in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cell Line by a Vitamin D Receptor-Independent Mechanism

Previously, we have reported that the active vitamin D metabolite, calcitriol and vitamin D<sub>3</sub> (cholecalciferol), both remarkably inhibit hepatitis C virus production. The mechanism by which vitamin D<sub>3</sub> exerts its effect is puzzling due to the low levels of...
