Vitamin D modulates the basal secretion of inflammatory cytokines in breast cancer cells: An in-vitro study
Vitamin D down-regulated the pro-inflammatory and up-regulated the anti-inflammatory cytokines. This indicates that vitamin D can modulate the expression of inflammatory mediators, particularly in a cancer setting. The results support the potential use of vitamin D as an anti-cancer agent with anti-inflammatory properties.
