CYP24A1, the primary catabolic enzyme of calcitriol, is overexpressed in melanoma tissues and cells.

Several drug classes and natural health products can modulate vitamin D-related CYP enzymes, potentially causing lower levels of vitamin D and its active metabolites in tissues, suggesting that maintaining adequate vitamin D levels, that is, avoiding vitamin D deficiency, either through dietary supplements or by modulating CYP metabolism, could be beneficial in decreasing the risk of

Although much of the vitamin D produced within human skin is absorbed directly, birds and furbearing animals acquire most of their vitamin D orally, as they groom themselves (Bicknell and Prescott, 1946; Carpenter and Zhao, 1999). Vitamin D is generated from the oily secretions of skin into fur. The oral consumption of UV-exposed dermal excretion is the way many animals acquire the "nutrient," vitamin D. Although Fraser (1983) has argued that dermal absorption of vitamin D may be more natural, what we know from animals indicates that oral consumption is equally physiological. Since vitamin D can be extracted from UV-exposed human sweat and skin secretions (Bicknell and Prescott, 1946), it is also reasonable to think that early humans obtained some of their vitamin D by mouth as well, by licking the skin.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=book&amp;rft.btitle=Bone+Loss+and+Osteoporosis%3A+An+Anthropological+Perspective&amp;rft.pub=Springer+Science+%26+Business+Media&amp;rft.date=2011-06-28&amp;rft.isbn=978-1-4419-8891-1&amp;rft.aulast=Agarwal&amp;rft.aufirst=SC&amp;rft.au=Stout%2C+SD&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fbooks.google.com%2Fbooks%3Fid%3D_JV3BQAAQBAJ&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AVitamin+D" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-182"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-182">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFYahavBuffenstein1993" class="citation journal cs1">Yahav S, Buffenstein R (January 1993). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://doi.org/10.1079%2FBJN19930025">"Cholecalciferol supplementation alters gut function and improves digestibility in an underground inhabitant, the naked mole rat (Heterocephalus glaber), when fed on a carrot diet"</a>. <i>The British Journal of Nutrition</i>. <b>69</b> (1): 233–41. <a href="/wiki/Doi_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="Doi (identifier)">doi</a>:<span class="id-lock-free" title="Freely accessible"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://doi.org/10.1079%2FBJN19930025">10.1079/BJN19930025</a></span>. <a href="/wiki/PMID_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="PMID (identifier)">PMID</a>&#160;<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8384476">8384476</a>.</cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=The+British+Journal+of+Nutrition&amp;rft.atitle=Cholecalciferol+supplementation+alters+gut+function+and+improves+digestibility+in+an+underground+inhabitant%2C+the+naked+mole+rat+%28Heterocephalus+glaber%29%2C+when+fed+on+a+carrot+diet&amp;rft.volume=69&amp;rft.issue=1&amp;rft.pages=233-41&amp;rft.date=1993-01&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1079%2FBJN19930025&amp;rft_id=info%3Apmid%2F8384476&amp;rft.aulast=Yahav&amp;rft.aufirst=S&amp;rft.au=Buffenstein%2C+R&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fdoi.org%2F10.1079%252FBJN19930025&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AVitamin+D" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-183"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-183">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFZafalonRisoliaPedrinelliVendramini2020" class="citation journal cs1">Zafalon RV, Risolia LW, Pedrinelli V, Vendramini TH, Rodrigues RB, Amaral AR, et&#160;al.
