ABSTRACT
Vitamin D is well known for its effects on bone metabolism, calcium and phosphorus homeostasis. Recently, a worldwide focus has been made on the extraskeletal effects of this liposoluble vitamin. The New York Times even called it the [wonder drug]. Vitamin D is a liposoluble vitamin and acts via an intracellular receptor. This article reviews the extra-skeletal effects of vitamin D focusing on cardiovascular effects, regulation of glucose, antitumoral properties, and effect on the immune system and the skeletal muscle and attempts to offer possible molecular explanations to these effects
