Vitamin D Receptor Signaling Mechanisms: Integrated Actions of a Well-Defined Transcription Factor
Open accessAbstract
The main physiological actions of the biologically most active metabolite of vitamin D, 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1α,25(OH)(2)D(3)), are calcium and phosphorus uptake and transport and thereby controlling bone formation. Other emergent areas of 1α,25(OH)(2)D(3) action are in the control of immune functions, cellular growth and differentiation. All genomic actions of 1α,25(OH)(2)D(3) are mediated by the transcription factor vitamin D receptor (VDR) that has been the subject of intense study since the 1980's. Thus, vitamin D signaling primarily implies the molecular actions of the VDR. In this review, we present different perspectives on the VDR that incorporate its role as transcription factor and member of the nuclear receptor superfamily, its dynamic changes in genome-wide locations and DNA binding modes, its interaction with chromatin components and its primary protein-coding and non-protein coding target genes and finally how these aspects are united in regulatory networks. By comparing the actions of the VDR, a relatively well-understood and characterized protein, with those of other transcription factors, we aim to build a realistic positioning of vitamin D signaling in the context of other intracellular signaling systems.

Vitamin D, through its interaction with the vitamin D receptor (VDR), can modulate the activity of chromatin-modifying enzymes, including DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs), histone acetyltransferases (HATs), and histone deacetylases (HDACs), and can influence DNA methylation patterns, histone modifications, and microRNA expression.
“Regarding epigenetic mechanisms, vitamin D, through its interaction with the vitamin D receptor (VDR), can modulate the activity of chromatin-modifying enzymes, including DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs), histone acetyltransferases (HATs), and histone deacetylases (HDACs).”

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredVitamin D is essential for human health and is mainly involved in calcium metabolism, particularly responsible for calcium and phosphate homeostasis by acting on the kidney, intestine and bone tissue.
“Vitamin D is a micronutrient essential for human health and is mainly involved in calcium metabolism, particularly responsible for calcium and phosphate homeostasis by acting on the kidney, intestine and bone tissue.”
From Maternal Overnutrition and Fetal Programming: Long-Term Metabolic, Cognitive, and Epigenetic Consequences (2026) · cites this paper as [134]
The Introduction (page not provided) calls vitamin D essential for health and says its active metabolite enables calcium and phosphate absorption from the intestine and bone formation. The paper also identifies calcium regulation as a classical action, but the passages do not support the claim that vitamin D acts on the kidney to maintain calcium and phosphate homeostasis. (LLM, conf=0.85)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredVitamin D and calcium are tightly interdependent, as vitamin D is essential for intestinal calcium absorption and skeletal mineralization; inadequate vitamin D status can impair calcium utilization despite sufficient intake.
“Similarly, vitamin D and calcium are tightly interdependent, as vitamin D is essential for intestinal calcium absorption and skeletal mineralization; inadequate vitamin D status can impair calcium utilization despite sufficient intake [134].”
From Maternal Overnutrition and Fetal Programming: Long-Term Metabolic, Cognitive, and Epigenetic Consequences (2026) · cites this paper as [134]
The Introduction (page not provided) says the active vitamin D metabolite is essential for intestinal calcium and phosphate absorption and hence for bone formation; it also links severe vitamin D deficiency to rickets. This supports the absorption and skeletal portions of the claim, but the paper does not address whether calcium utilization is impaired despite sufficient calcium intake. (LLM, conf=0.84)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
