Budesonide up-regulates vitamin D receptor expression in human bronchial fibroblasts and enhances the inhibitory effect of calcitriol on airway remodeling.

CONCLUSIONS: Calcitriol can up-regulate the expression of VDR in human bronchial fibroblasts and exert an anti-airway remodeling effect. Budesonide can up-regulate the expression of VDR in human bronchial fibroblasts and enhance the inhibitory effect of calcitriol on airway remodeling.
