Project description:Background: In addition to its canonical functions, vitamin D has been proposed to be an important mediator of the immune system. Despite ample sunshine, vitamin D deficiency is prevalent (> 80%) in the Middle East, resulting in a high rate of supplementation. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of the specific regimen and potential factors affecting an individual’s response to vitamin D are not well characterized. Objective: To characterize changes in blood transcriptomic and the potential mechanisms associated with vitamin D3 supplementation and response. Design: In this intervention study, one hundred vitamin D-deficient women were given a weekly oral dose (50,000 IU) of vitamin D3 for three months. A high-throughput targeted PCR, composed of 264 genes representing important blood transcriptomic fingerprints in health and disease states, was performed on pre- and post-supplementation blood samples to profile the molecular response to vitamin D3. Multivariate, network, gene ontology, and literature mining analyses were used for the interpretation of the transcriptomic profiling results. Results: We identified 54 differentially expressed genes that were strongly modulated by vitamin D3 supplementation. Network analyses showed significant changes in the immune-related pathways such as TLR4/CD14 and IFN receptors, and catabolic processes related to NFkB, which were subsequently confirmed by gene ontology enrichment analyses. We proposed a model for vitamin D3 response, using the reduced expression of the molecules involved and the receptor-mediated intra-cellular signaling leading to reduce cytokine production. Conclusions: Blood-transcriptomic profiles of vitamin D3 response were generated using a targeted blood gene panel. Vitamin D has a strong effect on the immune system, G-coupled protein receptor signaling, and the ubiquitin system. We highlighted the major molecular changes and biological processes induced by vitamin D3, which will help to further investigate the effectiveness of vitamin D supplementation among individuals in the Middle East.

Project description:The objective of the overall study was to determine the effects of oral vitamin D supplementation on alveolar macrophages from human subjects. In this substudy, subjects treated with vitamin D (intervention group) in paired analysis had small, but significant effects on immune-related differential gene expression pre versus post supplementation. In this study, we obtained alveolar macrophages by bronchoalveolar lavage of subjects before and after a 3 month vitamin D trial. RNA for the array was obtained shortly after bronchoscopy. Randomized Controlled Trial: This is a substudy of paired samples of subjects treated with vitamin D. Each sample was studied once. 22 individuals were studied.

Project description:This is a pilot study to test whether there is an association between baseline Vitamin D levels, Vitamin D supplementation and survival in patients with stage III colon and stage II/III rectal cancer receiving chemotherapy. 70 patients with colon stage III or rectal stage II or III cancer that require chemotherapy will be screened and 60 patients will be enrolled. Patients will be randomized to standard dose (2000 IU daily) or high-dose (50,000 IU weekly) Vitamin D supplementation for 1 year after initiation of chemotherapy. Patients’ Vitamin D levels will be checked throughout supplementation then followed for 5 years with occasional Vitamin D testing and surveying in order to collect information on recurrence and survival outcomes.

Project description:Vitamin D deficiency is common among older adults and has been linked to muscle weakness. Vitamin D supplementation has been proposed as a strategy to improve muscle function in older adults. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of calcifediol (25-hydroxycholecalciferol) on whole genome gene expression in skeletal muscle of vitamin D deficient frail older adults. A double-blind placebo controlled trial was conducted in vitamin D deficient frail older adults (aged above 65), characterized by blood 25-hydroxycholecalciferol concentrations between 20 and 50 nmol/L. Subjects were randomized across the placebo group (n=12) and the calcifediol group (n=10, 10 µg per day). Muscle biopsies were obtained before and after six months of calcifediol or placebo supplementation and subjected to whole genome gene expression profiling using Affymetrix HuGene 2.1ST arrays. Expression of the vitamin D receptor gene was virtually undetectable in human skeletal muscle biopsies. Calcifediol supplementation led to a significant increase in blood 25-hydroxycholecalciferol levels compared to the placebo group. No difference between treatment groups was observed on strength outcomes. The whole transcriptome effects of calcifediol and placebo were very weak. Correcting for multiple testing using false discovery rate did not yield any differentially expressed genes using any sensible cut-offs. P-values were uniformly distributed across all genes, suggesting that low p-values are likely to be false positives. Partial least squares-discriminant analysis and principle component analysis was unable to separate treatment groups. Calcifediol supplementation did not affect the skeletal muscle transcriptome in frail older adults. Our findings indicate that vitamin D supplementation has no effects on skeletal muscle gene expression, suggesting that skeletal muscle may not be a direct target of vitamin D in older adults.

Project description:In this study, we investigated the effect of vitamin D supplementation on tumorigenesis in a thioacetamide (TAA)-induced rat intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma model as vitamin D is known to have a spectrum of anticancer activities. Using PET, we found that tumor formation and progression were suppressed in rats fed a diet supplemented with 6 IU/g vitamin D3(+6D) as compared to the group fed a 2 IU/g vitamin D3 diet (+2D) or controls. Microarray analysis of the tumors that arose revealed that vitamin D supplementation caused significant up- and down regulation in 21 and 16 genes, respectively. There are 9 tissue samples (3 rats in each group labeled as (+6), (+2) and control). Duplicate analysis were used for each sample.
