Consequences of vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms for growth inhibition of cultured human peripheral blood mononuclear cells by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3

OBJECTIVE In the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene a BsmI restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) in intron 8 and a translational start‐site polymorphism, identified as a FokI RFLP, have been described. Crucial for a proper interpretation of these polymorphisms in association studies is the know...
