Some of the receptor repression is done by over-methylation and that can be something that your mother, for example, was deficient in vitamin D or calcium. That sets up a methylation pattern in subsequent offspring that can affect their sensitivity to vitamin D. By methylating the receptor or other interacting. Do you know how long lived these receptors are then? If you talk about a kind of transcriptional event that occurs in DNA to produce all these different things, one of which is the vitamin D receptor, which is so important because it has such an implication in so many different inflammatory processes, not just degenerative bone disease but down to cancers. How long these vitamin D receptors last once they've been produced and therefore if you're talking about the over-methylation being negatively associated with these vitamin D receptors disappearing or not being produced.
