The physical function of even a person getting on a wheelchair could be tested in all subjects. Blood was collected by venipuncture and the serum 1, 25-hydroxy vitamin D (1, 25OHD) concentration was measured. The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment-Japanese version (MoCA-J) was used for the cognitive function test. Physical function was measured objectively using the Timed UP and Go (TUG) and 4-m walking test (4MWS). A significant positive correlation was found between serum 1, 25OHD and MMSE or MoCA-J. It is expected that an elderly person can maintain a mean serum 1, 25OHD level of about 100 pg/mL for preventing early cognitive disorder. In the present study, a significant positive correlation was found between urinary 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25OHD)/creatinine and MMSE or MoCA-J. Our results showed that urinary 25OHD might be a useful biomarker for predicting cognitive disorder. There was a significant negative correlation between serum 1, 25OHD and TUG or 4MWS. These findings suggest that serum 1, 25OHD levels might serve as a useful index to improve cognitive and physical functional impairment.展开更多

Methodology: One hundred and sixty seven subjects were recruited for the cross-sectional study at King Fahad Medical City, Saudi Arabia. Blood samples were analyzed for biochemical parameters. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D and resistin levels were measured for all the participants. Result: Fifty six type-1, 55 type-2 diabetic patients and 56 healthy controls were recruited. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level in the control group was 44.21 ± 41.80 μg/ml compared to 50.67 ± 35.60 μg/ml in the diabetic group (P = 0.427) with no significant different between type-2 diabetes mellitus and type-1 diabetes mellitus (P = 0.628). Resistin level in the control group was 14.00 ± 7.39μg/ml compared to 20.21 ± 16.94 μg/ml in the diabetic group (P ≤ 0.01), no significant difference between type-2 diabetes mellitus and type-1 diabetes mellitus (P = 0.817). Resistin in those taking vitamin D supplementation was 21.34 ± 18.27 μg/ml;and in those not taking vitamin D supplementation, it was 17.4 ± 11.19 μg/ml;(P = 0.237). There was significant negative correlation between 25-hydroxyvitamin D and resistin in type-2 diabetes mellitus (P ≤ 0.043) and no significant correlation was found between vitamin 25 (OH) D and resistin level in type-1 diabetes mellitus (P = 0.538). Blood urea and creatinine showed significant positive correlation with vitamin 25 (OH) D in one hand and resistin level on the other hand. Discussion and Conclusions: Several in vitro and in vivo studies have confirmed that the vitamin 25 (OH) D have numerous important functions in the body. The circulating vitamin 25 (OH) D and resistin levels were associated with general inflammation in renal diseases. This study showed significant negative correlation between resistin level and vitamin 25 (OH) D in type 2 diabetes mellitus reflecting their roles in glucose homeostasis. The positive correlation of resistin and vitamin D with urea may reflect their involvement in kidney dysfunction. The level of serum resistin showed slight increase in diabetic patients compared to control group and it was higher in type-2 diabetes mellitus. More efforts are needed to explore the physiological mechanism of vitamin 25 (OH) D and resistin action in metabolic disorders.展开更多

Additionally, cells were co-incubated with butyrate and either 25(OH)2D3 or 1α-25(OH)2D3.1α-25(OH)2D3 mRNA was determined semi-quantitatively using the fluorescent dye PicoGreen. Immunoblotting was used for the detection of 1α-25(OH)2D3 protein.Finally, enzymatic activity was measured by ELISA.RESULTS: Both butyrate and 1α-25(OH)2D3 stimulated differentiation of Caco-2 cells after a 48 h incubation period, while 25(OH)2D3 had no impact on cell differentiation. Synergistic effects on differentiation were observed when cells were co-incubated with butyrate and vitamin D metabolite. Butyrate transiently upregulated 1α-25(OH)2D3 mRNA followed by a timely delayed protein upregulation. Coincidently, enzymatic activity was enhanced significantly. The induction of the enzyme allowed for comparable differentiating effects of both vitamin D metabolites.CONCLUSION: Our experimental data pr ovide a further mechanism for the involvement of the vitamin D signaling pathway in colonic epithelial cell differentiation by butyrate. The enhancement of 1α-25(OH)2D3 followed by antiproliferative effects of the vitamin D prohormone in the Caco-2 cell line suggest that 25(OH)2D3 in combination with butyrate may offer a new therapeutic approach for the treatment of colon cancer.展开更多

Methods: Retrospective analysis of 250 admitted type 2 diabetes inpatients admitted to the endocrinology department of qinghai provincial hospital of traditional chinese medicine from september 2022 to december 2023, collated and analysed the general data and laboratory indicators of the patient cases, and applied spss26.0 to process and analyse the data and explore the differences in the general conditions and commonly used clinical nutritional indicators of type 2 diabetes in patients with different 25-hydroxyVitamin D levels. The differences between the different 25-hydroxy Vitamin D levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Results: 1) A total of 250 inpatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were included in this study, of which 56 cases (22.4%) were patients with 25 hydroxyvitamin D deficiency [25(OH)D P P P P > 0.05). 3) The distribution of some laboratory indexes among the three groups of patients was differentiated, with the average level of glycated haemoglobin in the lack group being significantly higher than that of the remaining two groups, the average level of albumin being significantly lower than that of the remaining two groups, and the average level of haemoglobin being significantly lower than that of the good group (P P > 0.05). Conclusion: The 25(OH)D level of type 2 diabetes mellitus inpatients is not optimistic. In clinical diagnosis and treatment, we should pay attention to the changes in 25 hydroxyvitamin D levels and other nutritional indexes of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, and focus on the control of blood glucose levels and timely supplementation of vitamins, proteins, and lipids, in order to improve the patients’ physical status, reduce the incidence of complications, and improve the clinical efficacy and the patients’ quality of life.展开更多

文摘We enrolled 23 Japanese men (age: 76.0 ± 8.7) and 17 women (age: 78.3 ± 9.3) in this study. The physical function of even a person getting on a wheelchair could be tested in all subjects. Blood was collected by venipuncture and the serum 1, 25-hydroxy vitamin D (1, 25OHD) concentration was measured. The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment-Japanese version (MoCA-J) was used for the cognitive function test. Physical function was measured objectively using the Timed UP and Go (TUG) and 4-m walking test (4MWS). A significant positive correlation was found between serum 1, 25OHD and MMSE or MoCA-J. It is expected that an elderly person can maintain a mean serum 1, 25OHD level of about 100 pg/mL for preventing early cognitive disorder. In the present study, a significant positive correlation was found between urinary 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25OHD)/creatinine and MMSE or MoCA-J. Our results showed that urinary 25OHD might be a useful biomarker for predicting cognitive disorder. There was a significant negative correlation between serum 1, 25OHD and TUG or 4MWS. These findings suggest that serum 1, 25OHD levels might serve as a useful index to improve cognitive and physical functional impairment.

文摘AIM: To investigate the possible involvement of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3-1α-hydroxylase [1α-25(OH)2D3] in butyrate-induced differentiation in human intestinal cell line Caco-2 cells.METHODS: Caco-2 cells were incubated either with 3 mmol/L butyrate and 1 μmol/L 25(OH)2D3 or with 1μmol/L 1α-25(OH)2D3 for various time intervals ranging from 0 to 72 h. Additionally, cells were co-incubated with butyrate and either 25(OH)2D3 or 1α-25(OH)2D3.1α-25(OH)2D3 mRNA was determined semi-quantitatively using the fluorescent dye PicoGreen. Immunoblotting was used for the detection of 1α-25(OH)2D3 protein.Finally, enzymatic activity was measured by ELISA.RESULTS: Both butyrate and 1α-25(OH)2D3 stimulated differentiation of Caco-2 cells after a 48 h incubation period, while 25(OH)2D3 had no impact on cell differentiation. Synergistic effects on differentiation were observed when cells were co-incubated with butyrate and vitamin D metabolite. Butyrate transiently upregulated 1α-25(OH)2D3 mRNA followed by a timely delayed protein upregulation. Coincidently, enzymatic activity was enhanced significantly. The induction of the enzyme allowed for comparable differentiating effects of both vitamin D metabolites.CONCLUSION: Our experimental data pr ovide a further mechanism for the involvement of the vitamin D signaling pathway in colonic epithelial cell differentiation by butyrate. The enhancement of 1α-25(OH)2D3 followed by antiproliferative effects of the vitamin D prohormone in the Caco-2 cell line suggest that 25(OH)2D3 in combination with butyrate may offer a new therapeutic approach for the treatment of colon cancer.
文摘The effect of ageing was evaluated on quality parameters(pH,electrical conductivity(EC),osmolality,drip loss(DL)and cooking loss(CL)),proteins,fat and 25-hydroxyvitamin D(25-OH-D)total levels and antioxidant status(malondialdehyde(MDA)and catalase(CAT)activity)in meat of camels during storage at 4±1°C.Samples were taken from the brachial triceps muscle(triceps barchii)and were stored at 4±1°C for 10 d.Quality parameters,chemical composition and antioxidant status were assessed at 3 h and 24 h postslaughter and 5,7 and 10 d postmortem during cold storage.CAT activity significantly decreased while osmolality,EC,DL,CL and MDA contents significantly increased,from the 5th or 7th postmortem day of cold storage of the camel meat.However,proteins,lipids and 25-OH-D total contents showed no significant differences during all period of ageing.In conclusion,in the dromedary camel,ageing time of triceps muscle influenced significantly its quality characteristics and antioxidant status from the 5th or 7th postmortem day of refrigerated storage,without any variation of proteins,fat and 25-OH-D contents.

文摘Mental disorders seriously affect people’s health and social stability.This Mendelian randomization(MR)study was designed to investigate the causal relationship between circulating vitamin C(VC)or 25-hydroxyvitamin D(25(OH)D)levels and mental disorders.The data used for the MR analysis were derived from the summary genome-wide association studies(GWAS)database for VC and 25(OH)D and from the Finn Gen consortium for fourteen mental disorders.Based on the inverse variance weighted(IVW)method,we found a potential causal association between circulating VC and anxiety disorders(IVW:OR=1.139,95%CI:1.023-1.269,P=0.018).However,no causal association was found between VC or 25(OH)D and other mental disorders(P>0.05).In the reverse MR analysis,individuals with Alzheimer’s disease was causally associated with higher concentrations of circulating VC(P=0.012),while individuals with anxiety disorders had a negative association between the concentrations of 25(OH)D(P=0.012).However,the current evidence does not support a causal relationship between VC or 25(OH)D and other mental disorders.In addition,there was no causal association between circulating VC and 25(OH)D(P>0.05).Future studies are needed to confirm these findings and to elucidate the mechanisms of potential causality.
文摘Objective: To investigate the distribution of 25-hydroxy Vitamin D level status in type 2 diabetes mellitus inpatients, as well as the differences in general conditions and clinical indicators in patients with different Vitamin D status. Methods: Retrospective analysis of 250 admitted type 2 diabetes inpatients admitted to the endocrinology department of qinghai provincial hospital of traditional chinese medicine from september 2022 to december 2023, collated and analysed the general data and laboratory indicators of the patient cases, and applied spss26.0 to process and analyse the data and explore the differences in the general conditions and commonly used clinical nutritional indicators of type 2 diabetes in patients with different 25-hydroxyVitamin D levels. The differences between the different 25-hydroxy Vitamin D levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Results: 1) A total of 250 inpatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were included in this study, of which 56 cases (22.4%) were patients with 25 hydroxyvitamin D deficiency [25(OH)D P P P P > 0.05). 3) The distribution of some laboratory indexes among the three groups of patients was differentiated, with the average level of glycated haemoglobin in the lack group being significantly higher than that of the remaining two groups, the average level of albumin being significantly lower than that of the remaining two groups, and the average level of haemoglobin being significantly lower than that of the good group (P P > 0.05). Conclusion: The 25(OH)D level of type 2 diabetes mellitus inpatients is not optimistic. In clinical diagnosis and treatment, we should pay attention to the changes in 25 hydroxyvitamin D levels and other nutritional indexes of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, and focus on the control of blood glucose levels and timely supplementation of vitamins, proteins, and lipids, in order to improve the patients’ physical status, reduce the incidence of complications, and improve the clinical efficacy and the patients’ quality of life.
