 | Compared to whites, blacks and Asian Indians have a reduction in serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D 25(OH)D as a consequence of increased skin pigment that causes a diminished rate of dermal production of vitamin D3 from 7- dehydrocholesterol and possibly of increased activity of 25(OH)D-24-hydroxylase, the rate-limiting enzyme for degradation of vitamin D metabolites, in cultured skin fibroblasts. Thus, production and degradation of 25(OH)D may be altered in these two racial groups. ... |
