research Vitamin D Status Assessment: Lack of Correlation between Serum and Hair 25-Hydroxycholecalciferol Levels in Healthy Young Adults
Vitamin D levels in hair don't match those in blood, so hair isn't a reliable indicator of Vitamin D status.
research 1,25-(OH)2D3 promotes hair growth by inhibiting NLRP3/IL-1β and HIF-1α/IL-1β signaling pathways
1,25-(OH)2D3 helps hair grow by blocking certain harmful signals.
research Possible association of female-pattern hair loss with alteration in serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels
Women losing hair might have lower levels of vitamin D.
research The vitamin D receptor functions as a transcription regulator in the absence of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3
The vitamin D receptor can regulate genes and affect hair and hormone levels without its usual activator.
research Association of DNA damage with vitamin D and hair heavy metals of obese women
Adequate vitamin D might lower, and high hair chromium might increase DNA damage in obese women.

research The Molecular Biology of the Vitamin D Receptor
The vitamin D receptor can affect gene activity even without its usual hormone in hair and skin.
research Vitamin D3 and chemotherapy-induced alopecia
Vitamin D3 may prevent hair loss from chemotherapy, but side effects and cancer cell protection are concerns.
research Ligand‐Independent Actions of the Vitamin D Receptor: More Questions Than Answers
The vitamin D receptor can act without its usual activating molecule, affecting hair growth and skin cancer, but its full range of actions is not well understood.
research Vitamin D Receptor: New Assignments for an Already Busy Receptor
The vitamin D receptor is involved in multiple body functions beyond calcium regulation, including immune response and rapid reactions not related to gene activity.
research Minireview: vitamin D receptor: new assignments for an already busy receptor. - eScholarship
The vitamin D receptor has many roles in the body beyond managing calcium, affecting the immune system, hair growth, muscles, fat, bone marrow, and cancer cells.

research The Vitamin D Receptor as Tumor Suppressor in Skin
Vitamin D and its receptor may help prevent skin cancer.
research Ligand-Independent Actions of Vitamin D Receptor
The vitamin D receptor helps maintain hair and bone health even without binding vitamin D.
research Vitamin D and the skin: Physiology and pathophysiology
Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.
research In vivo microautoradiography of [3H]1,24(OH)2D3 (tacalcitol) following topical application to normal rats and in vitro metabolism in human keratinocytes
Topical tacalcitol can treat psoriasis by acting directly on skin cells.
research The Role of the Vitamin D Receptor in the Epidermal Stem Cell Response to Wounding
Vitamin D receptor is crucial for skin wound healing.
research A Non-Invasive Hair Test to Determine Vitamin D3 Levels
The hair test for vitamin D could be a useful alternative to blood tests, providing a longer-term vitamin D status, but more research is needed.
research Vitamin D: Role in Skin and Hair
Vitamin D affects skin and hair by influencing cell behavior and melanin production.
research Biphasic Effect of 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 on Human Hair Follicle Growth and Hair Fiber Production in Whole-Organ Cultures
Small amounts of Vitamin D3 can boost hair growth, but too much can stop it.
research Increased 25(OH)D3 level in redheaded people: Could redheadedness be an adaptation to temperate climate?
Redheaded people may have evolved to efficiently make vitamin D in areas with less sunlight.
research Vitamin D and the Epidermis
Vitamin D is important for skin cell growth and health, and its active form and receptor play key roles in skin and hair processes.
research Vitamin D and the Parenteral Nutrition Patient
Vitamin D is crucial for bone health and preventing serious diseases.
research Protection against cyclophosphamide‐induced alopecia and inhibition of mammary tumor growth by topical 1,25‐dihydroxyvitamin D3 in mice
Rubbing vitamin D3 on skin can help prevent hair loss from chemotherapy and slow breast tumor growth in mice.
research Vitamin D receptor ablation alters skin architecture and homeostasis of dendritic epidermal T cells
Lack of Vitamin D receptor changes skin structure and increases certain immune cells in the skin.
research Rickets with Alopecia Signals Vitamin D Dependent Rickets Type II
A child with rickets and hair loss might have a rare type of rickets that doesn't improve much with usual vitamin D and calcium treatment.
research Hereditary 1,25‐Dihydroxyvitamin D–Resistant Rickets Due to an Opal Mutation Causing Premature Termination of the Vitamin D Receptor
