25-Hydroxycholecalciferol receptors in human breast cancer

Abstract: Summary.-Cytosol receptors for 25-hydroxycholecalciferol, oestradiol and progesterone were measured in human mammary carcinomas. Significant positive correlations were found between the concentrations of all three receptors.

“…Treatment with vitamin D compounds was shown to inhibit the development of cancer in a carcinogen-induced model in the hamster; vitamin D receptor (VDR) was detected in human cancer cells and growth arrest in vitro . 1 2 3 This paper seeks to provide an overview of studies of vitamin D in prostate cancer. However, given the ubiquitous expression of VDR as well as the vitamin D synthesizing and degrading enzymes ( e.g ., CYP 24a1, CYP27b1) in almost all human tissues, and cancers that arise from those tissues, there is every reason to believe that vitamin D signaling may play a role in the genesis, outcome, and treatment of other types of cancer.…”

“…Critical experiments, reported in the 1970s and early 1980s, form the basis for the hypothesis that vitamin D compounds can be used to inhibit the development and progression of several types of cancer: treatment with vitamin D compounds was shown to inhibit the development of cancer in a carcinogen-induced model in the hamster the vitamin D receptor (VDR) was detected in numerous histotypes of human cancer cells treatment of cancer cells with calcitriol (1,25dihydroxycholecalciferol) in vitro was shown to cause growth arrest ( Potter et al, 1985 ; Moqattash et al, 1985 ; Freake et al, 1984 ; Sato et al, 1984 ; Kuroki et al, 1983 ; Frampton et al, 1983 ; Frankel et al, 1983 ; Mccarthy et al, 1983 ; Honma et al, 1983 ; Sato et al, 1982 ; Freake & Macintyre, 1982 ; Tanaka et al, 1982 ; Colston et al, 1982 ; Frampton et al, 1982 ; Eisman et al, 1981 ; Sher et al, 1981 ; Miyaura et al, 1981 ; Abe et al, 1981 ; Colston et al, 1981 ; Eisman et al, 1980a ; Fry et al, 1980 ; Eisman et al, 1980b ; Manolagas et al, 1980 ; Eisman et al, 1980c ; Eisman et al, 1979 ; Murphy et al, 1979 ; Rubin & Levij, 1973 ). …”
