Vitamin D Modulation of TRAIL Expression in Human Milk and Mammary Epithelial Cells
Abstract The vitamin D levels in mothers affect the health status of both the mother and breastfeeding infant. Vitamin D deficient mothers’ infants are prone to rickets. While tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL) has been implicated in cellular growth/apoptosis, immune cel...
