Abstract

The present review has concentrated on the control of longitudinal growth and the relative importance of certain micronutrients. By far the most significant of these is 1.25(OH)2D3 which is now being recognized, not only for its role in maintaining Ca homeostasis, but also its major role in chondrocyte differentiation within the growth plate.
