Abstract
Human ULMs contain significantly lower 1, 25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 than its adjacent myometrium. ULM, Myo-F, and Myo-N express CYP27B1 and CYP24A1. ULMs express significantly higher level of CYP24A1 than normal myometrium indicating that over expression of 24-hydroxylase is a mechanism by which ULMs sustain a relative state of hypovitaminosis D.
