Featured Products
Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol, CAS 67-97-0) is a fat-soluble steroid and the naturally occurring form of vitamin D. After metabolic activation by hydroxylation, it primarily binds the nuclear vitamin D receptor (VDR) and regulates gene expression pathways related to cell differentiation and proliferation, inducing cell differentiation and inhibiting the proliferation of various cancer cells. Combined with nicotine (the VDN method), it induces a rat vascular calcification model.
