Abstract

Melanoma represents the most aggressive skin cancer, with an unpredictable and often treatment resistant behavior. The etiology of melanoma is multifactorial and includes both environmental and genetic factors. Recent evidence indicates that vitamin D has a role in the development and progression of melanoma. The biologically active form of vitamin D/1,25‑dihydroxyvitamin D3 acts by binding to a intranuclear receptor; vitamin D receptor (VDR). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the vitamin D receptor gene may alter the expression or the function of the VDR protein leading to various diseases, including melanoma. More than 600 SNPs have been identified in the VDR gene, but only a few have been analyzed in relation to melanoma risk: FokI, TaqI, BsmI, ApaI, Cdx2, EcoRV, and BglI. Individual studies carried on small cohorts of patients reported controversial results. In an attempt to clarify the available data in the literature on this subject, we elaborated a systematic review in which we analyzed the relationship between VDR gene polymorphisms and melanoma risk and progression. We concluded that vitamin D pathway is important for the pathogenesis and the progression of cutaneous melanoma, illustrating the gene‑environment interactions, but well‑designed prospective studies that include data on both genotypes and phenotypes of vitamin D metabolism are essential in order to understand the mechanisms underlying the association between vitamin D and melanoma.
