Resumo(s)
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble hormone that plays a significant role in calcium-phosphate metabolism, in addition to intervening in cell metabolic activity, immune regulation, among other functions. Vitamin D is synthesized in skin epithelium under ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation. It then undergoes two successive hydroxylations in the 25- and 1- carbons, in the liver and in the kidney, respectively, to yield the active form, calcitriol. A minor portion of vitamin D is obtained from alimentary sources.
