## Background: Although topical 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin d3 (calcitriol, 1, 25(oh)2d3) and its analogues, calcipotriol and tacalcitol, are effective for patients with psoriasis, some patients show little or no response. there is a need to develop more potent analogues of 1, 25(oh)2d3. hexafluoro-1,25(
In the present investigation we studied the metabolism of 1 cu,25-dihydroxy-[l P-3H]vitamin D3 (3H-1 ,25(OH),D3) in culture-grown human keratinocytes (CHK). O u r results showed that the cellular uptake of 3H-1,25(OH)2D3, upon incubation with CHK, occurred very rapidly; and it paralleled a decrease
Extracellular calcium (Cao) and the steroid hormone 1,25(OH)2D, induce the differentiation of human epidermal cells in culture. Recent studies suggest that increases in intracellular free calcium (Cai) levels may be an initial signal that triggers keratinocyte differentiation. In the present study,
The steroid hormone 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D 3 (1,25(OH) 2 D 3 ) regulates cell proliferation and differentiation. Intracellular calcium (Cai) concentrations play a crucial role in these events. From our previous studies, we have demonstrated a calcium receptor (CaR) in keratinocytes which appears to
