Antiproliferative action of vitamin D

Vitamins and Hormones
Timo YlikomiPentti Tuohimaa

Abstract

During the past few years, it has become apparent that vitamin D may play an important role in malignant transformation. Epidemiological studies suggest that low vitamin D serum concentration increases especially the risk of hormone-related cancers. Experimentally, vitamin D suppresses the proliferation of normal and malignant cells and induces differentiation and apoptosis. In the present review we discuss the mechanisms whereby vitamin D regulates cell proliferation and whether it could be used in prevention and treatment of hyperproliferative disorders like cancers.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis

Apoptosis in Cancer

Apoptosis is an important mechanism in cancer. By evading apoptosis, tumors can continue to grow without regulation and metastasize systemically. Many therapies are evaluating the use of pro-apoptotic activation to eliminate cancer growth. Here is the latest research on apoptosis in cancer.
