## Abstract It is now well established that supraphysiological doses of 1ฮฑ,25โdihydroxyvitamin D~3~ [1ฮฑ,25(OH)~2~D~3~] stimulate bone resorption. Recent studies have established that osteoblasts/stromal cells express receptor activator of NFโฮบB ligand (RANKL) in response to several boneโresorbing f
The idea that vitamin D must function at the bone site to promote bone mineralization has long existed since its discovery as an anti-rachitic agent. However, the definite evidence for this is still lacking. In contrast, much evidence has accumulated that 1 c ~, 2 5 ( 0 H ) ~D ~ is involved in bone
Studies examining the relationship between total circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels and bone mineral density (BMD) have yielded mixed results. Vitamin Dโbinding protein (DBP), the major carrier protein for 25(OH)D, may alter the biologic activity of circulating vitamin D. We hypothesiz
## Abstract The vitamin D endocrine system is central to the control of bone and calcium homeostasis. The active hormonal aform of vitamin D, 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D (calcitriol), the circulating level of which is tightly regulated, acts through a specific receptor to mediate its genomic actions on
