Abstract:
As an important immunomodulator, vitamin D is involved in the expression, proliferation and apoptosis of immune cells through binding with the vitamin D receptor of immune cells, so as to play an immunomodulatory role, which is related to chronic inflammatory diseases and autoimmune diseases. Recent studies have found that endometrial cells also express vitamin D receptors, and the expression level of relevant immune factors in endometriosis patients are correlated with vitamin D levels. Therefore, this article will review the research progress on the regulation of vitamin D levels on the immunological pathogenesis of endometriosis.
