Abstract
There is increasing evidence that steroid hormones derived from vitamin D act through classical nuclear receptors (nVDR), as well as specific binding sites on the plasma membrane of target cells that are coupled to signal transduction systems. These sites are referred to as M embrane A ssociated, R apid R esponse S teroid (MARRS) binding proteins or complexes. In the case of the seco-steroid 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3], the two

New drug therapy for eye diseases
Eyesight is one of the most critical senses, accounting for over 80% of our perceptions. Our quality of life might be significantly affected by eye disease, including glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, dry eye, etc. Although the development of microinvasive ocular surgery reduces surgical complications and improves overall outcomes, medication therapy is ...read more
