Genetic disorders and defects in vitamin D action.
Rheum Dis Clin North Am. 2012; (1): 93-106
The biochemical and genetic analysis of the VDR in patients with HVDRR has yielded important insights into the structure and function of the receptor in mediating 1,25(OH)2D3 action. Similarly, study of children affected by HVDRR continues to provide a more complete understanding of the biologic role of 1,25(OH)2D3 in vivo. A concerted investigative approach to HVDRR at the clinical, cellular, and molecular levels has proved valuable in gaining knowledge of the functions of the domains of the VDR and elucidating the detailed mechanism of action of 1,25(OH)2D3. These studies have been essential to promote the well-being of the families with HVDRR and in improving the diagnostic and clinical management of this rare genetic disease.
