## Abstract The 25โhydroxyvitamin D~3~โ24โhydroxylase mRNA is tightly and reciprocally regulated by 1,25โdihydroxyvitamin D~3~ (1,25(OH)~2~D~3~) and parathyroid hormone (PTH). The upregulation of the 24โhydroxylase by 1,25(OH)~2~D~3~ is well established and occurs at the transcriptional level throu
Calcium absorption declines with age. Because 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH),D) is the major hormone controlling calcium absorption, changes in vitamin D metabolism may account for the malabsorption of aging. Serum levels of 1,25(OH),D have been reported to either decrease or remain unchanged wit
To assess the osteopenia induced by environmental cadmium (Cd) exposure by measurement of serum bone Gla protein (BGP), parathyroid hormone ((PTH) and la,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (la, 25(OH),D), 29 men and 41 women who lived in a Cd-polluted area and showed renal tubular dysfunction were selected. To e
