“…The mechanism of this VDR gene polymorphism in the pathogenesis of CaOx stone formation is still unclear, but several human studies suggest that VDR gene polymorphisms could influence calcium absorption and excretion 13 . For example, the T allele of the TaqI VDR polymorphism was associated with urinary calcium excretion and the severity of stone formation in the Japanese population 10 .…”

“…Given the crucial role of vitamin D in calcium homeostasis, the genetic alterations in the VDR gene could affect vitamin D action both during intestinal absorption and renal calcium handling, leading to hypercalciuria and stone formation. There is epidemiological evidence of allelic variation in the VDR gene that might be involved in calcium stone etiology in definite human populations 9‐13 …”

“…A recent meta-analysis by González-Castro in 2019 [ 78 ], including 23 studies (a total of 1536 cases/1767 controls for ApaI polymorphism, 1571 cases/ 1455 controls for BsmI polymorphism, 2145 cases/2280 controls for FokI polymorphism, and 2160 cases/2307 controls for TaqI polymorphism), indicated that BsmI polymorphism had a protective association with nephrolithiasis in the allelic and homozygous models. Moreover, both TaqI polymorphism and FokI polymorphism were associated with a decreased risk of nephrolithiasis in the heterozygous model.…”

“…Vitamin D receptor (VDR) belongs to the superfamily of transcription factor nuclear receptors and is a soluble protein that exists in many nuclei and cell membranes (González-Castro et al, 2019). VDR is mainly distributed in the kidney, small intestine, skin, and bones.…”

“…VDR gene is located in 12q13.11 on the chromosome. Among the four VDR variants (FokI, ApaI, TaqI, and BsmI), three of them occur in the intron sections: the TaqI, ApaI, and BsmI variants, while only the FokI variant changes the codon (Ou et al, 2014;González-Castro et al, 2019). On account of the location of the gene, the influence of each variant can be different; for example, BsmI and TaqI variants can influence the translation efficiency and/or stability of the RNA, but they do not modify the structure of the VDR protein (Miyazawa and Suzuki, 2011).…”
