    basic FUNCTION
  • plays a pivotal role in vitamin D physiology by catalyzing synthesis of active 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] (Wu 2007)
  • putative intracrine modulator of vitamin D function in peripheral tissues
  • acting predominantly on endochondral bone formation
  • during pregnancy, calcitriol, the active metabolite of vitamin D, is metabolized by decidua and placental tissue by means of CYP27B1 and CYP24A1 for synthesis and inactivation of calcitriol respectively(PMIDC:
