Apoptosis

Apoptosis (from falling off) is a form of programmed cell death that occurs in multicellular organisms and in some eukaryotic, single-celled microorganisms such as yeast.

See Vitamin D5 and Apoptosis

Calcipotriol

Calcipotriol, also known as calcipotriene, is a synthetic derivative of calcitriol, a form of vitamin D. It is used in the treatment of psoriasis. Vitamin D5 and Calcipotriol are vitamin D.

See Vitamin D5 and Calcipotriol

Calcitriol

Calcitriol is the active form of vitamin D, normally made in the kidney. Vitamin D5 and Calcitriol are vitamin D.

See Vitamin D5 and Calcitriol

Dexamethasone

Dexamethasone is a fluorinated glucocorticoid medication used to treat rheumatic problems, a number of skin diseases, severe allergies, asthma, chronic obstructive lung disease, croup, brain swelling, eye pain following eye surgery, superior vena cava syndrome (a complication of some forms of cancer), and along with antibiotics in tuberculosis.

See Vitamin D5 and Dexamethasone

Hydroxylation

In chemistry, hydroxylation can refer to.

See Vitamin D5 and Hydroxylation

Hypercalcaemia

Hypercalcemia, also spelled hypercalcaemia, is a high calcium (Ca2+) level in the blood serum.

See Vitamin D5 and Hypercalcaemia

Kidney

In humans, the kidneys are two reddish-brown bean-shaped blood-filtering organs that are a multilobar, multipapillary form of mammalian kidneys, usually without signs of external lobulation.

See Vitamin D5 and Kidney

Photoisomerization

In chemistry, photoisomerization is a form of isomerization induced by photoexcitation.

See Vitamin D5 and Photoisomerization

Prostate cancer

Prostate cancer is the uncontrolled growth of cells in the prostate, a gland in the male reproductive system below the bladder.

See Vitamin D5 and Prostate cancer

Protecting group

A protecting group or protective group is introduced into a molecule by chemical modification of a functional group to obtain chemoselectivity in a subsequent chemical reaction.

See Vitamin D5 and Protecting group

Structural analog

A structural analog, also known as a chemical analog or simply an analog, is a compound having a structure similar to that of another compound, but differing from it in respect to a certain component.

See Vitamin D5 and Structural analog

University of Chicago

The University of Chicago (UChicago, Chicago, U of C, or UChi) is a private research university in Chicago, Illinois.

See Vitamin D5 and University of Chicago

Vitamin D

Vitamin D is a group of fat-soluble secosteroids responsible for increasing intestinal absorption of calcium, magnesium, and phosphate, and for many other biological effects.

See Vitamin D5 and Vitamin D

7-Dehydrositosterol

7-Dehydrositosterol is a sterol which serves as a precursor for sitocalciferol (vitamin D5). Vitamin D5 and 7-Dehydrositosterol are vitamin D.
