Summary

The human vitamin D receptor mRNA expression in preconfluent human cultured keratinocytes was upregulated by treatment of these cells with 10−8 M 1,25(OH)2D3 for 24 hours. Additionally, human c-myc mRNA expression was decreased in a dose dependent manner by 1,25(OH)2D3 in both preconfluent and confluent cultured human keratinocytes.
