Unexpected actions of vitamin D: new perspectives on the regulation of innate and adaptive immunity (2008, background): “Nonclassical vitamin D and human disease The detection of VDR in tissues not immediately associated with calcium homeostasis and bone metabolism paved the way for the first re-evaluations of the physiological actions of 1,25(OH) 2 D”
Vitamin D2 is as effective as vitamin D3 in maintaining circulating concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D. (2008, background): “Both vitamin D2 and vitamin D3 when ingested undergo metabolism in the liver to form 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D; D represents either D2 or D3] and in the kidneys to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1, 3, 5, 6).”

Vitamin D—Effects on Skeletal and Extraskeletal Health and the Need for Supplementation (2013, background): “Vitamin D from cutaneous synthesis or dietary/supplemental intake, is transported to the fat where it can be stored or to the liver for the first step of activation, the hydroxylation to 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], which is the major circulating form of vitamin D [7,15] and measured to assess a p”
