The roles of vitamin D in cutaneous wound healing: In vitro and ex vivo studies of the effect of 1,25(OH)2D3 and its precursors on human dermal fibroblasts and epidermal keratinocytes in cutaneous wound healing
In humans, the epidermis is the main site for the synthesis of Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) from 7-dehydrocholesterol. Cholecalciferol undergoes further hydroxylation in the liver and kidney to produce the active form of the circulating hormone 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3). In target cell...
