Abstract
Vitamin D is mainly produced in the skin (cholecalciferol) by sun exposure while a fraction of it is obtained from dietary sources (ergocalciferol). Vitamin D is further processed to 25-hydroxyvitamin D and 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D (calcitriol) in the liver and kidneys, respectively. Calcitriol is the active form which mediates the actions of vitamin D via vitamin D receptor (VDR) which is present ubiquitously. Defect at any level in this pathway leads to vitamin D deficient or resistant rickets. Nutritional vitamin D deficiency is the leading cause of rickets and osteomalacia worldwide and responds well to vitamin D supplementation. Inherited disorders of vitamin D metabolism (vitamin D-dependent rickets, VDDR) account for a small proportion of calcipenic rickets/osteomalacia. Defective 1α hydroxylation of vitamin D, 25 hydroxylation of vitamin D, and vitamin D receptor result in VDDR1A, VDDR1B and VDDR2A, respectively whereas defective binding of vitamin D to vitamin D response element due to overexpression of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein and accelerated vitamin D metabolism cause VDDR2B and VDDR3, respectively. Impaired dietary calcium absorption and consequent calcium deficiency increases parathyroid hormone in these disorders resulting in phosphaturia and hypophosphatemia. Hypophosphatemia is a common feature of all these disorders, though not a sine-qua-non and leads to hypomineralisation of the bone and myopathy. Improvement in hypophosphatemia is one of the earliest markers of response to vitamin D supplementation in nutritional rickets/osteomalacia and the lack of such a response should prompt evaluation for inherited forms of rickets/osteomalacia.

Threshold of 25(OH)D and consequently adjusted parathyroid hormone reference intervals: data mining for relationship between vitamin D and parathyroid hormone. J Endocrinol Invest 2023; 46:2067-2077. [PMID: 36920734 PMCID: PMC10514164 DOI: 10.1007/s40618-023-02057-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2022] [Accepted: 03/02/2023] [Indexed: 03/16/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE By recruiting reference population, we aimed to (1): estimate the 25(OH)D threshold that maximally inhibits the PTH, which can be defined as the cutoff value for vitamin D sufficiency; (2) establish the PTH reference interval (RI) in population with sufficient vitamin D. METHODS Study data were retrieved from LIS (Laboratory Information Management System) under literature suggested criteria, and outliers were excluded using Tukey fence method. Locally weighted regression (LOESS) and segmented regression (SR) were conducted to estimate the threshold of 25(OH)D. Multivariate linear regression was performed to evaluate the associations between PTH concentration and variables including 25(OH)D, gender, age, estimated glomerular filtration rate (EGFR), body mass index (BMI), albumin-adjusted serum calcium (aCa), serum phosphate(P), serum magnesium(Mg), and blood collection season. Z test was adopted to evaluate whether the reference interval should be stratified by determinants such as age and gender. RESULTS A total of 64,979 apparently healthy subjects were recruited in this study, with median (Q1, Q3) 25(OH)D of 45.33 (36.15, 57.50) nmol/L and median (Q1, Q3) PTH of 42.19 (34.24, 52.20) ng/L. The segmented regression determined the 25(OH)D threshold of 55 nmol/L above which PTH would somewhat plateau and of 22 nmol/L below which PTH would rise steeply. Multivariate linear regression suggested that gender, EGFR, and BMI were independently associated with PTH concentrations. The PTH RI was calculated as 22.17-72.72 ng/L for subjects with 25(OH)D ≥ 55 nmol/L with no necessity of stratification according to gender, age, menopausal status nor season. CONCLUSION This study reported 25(OH)D thresholds of vitamin D sufficiency at 55 nmol/L and vitamin D deficiency at 22 nmol/L, and consequently established PTH RIs in subjects with sufficient vitamin D for northern China population for the first time.

Inverse correlation of intact PTH, oxidized PTH as well as non-oxidized PTH with 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 in kidney transplant recipients. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 14:1178166. [PMID: 37324252 PMCID: PMC10264784 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1178166] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Background 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and potentially also 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2D) inhibits the synthesis of parathyroid hormone (PTH) in the chief cells of the parathyroid gland. Clinical studies showing a negative correlation between (25(OH)D and PTH are in good agreement with these findings in basic science studies. However, PTH was measured in these studies with the currently clinically used 2nd or 3rd generation intact PTH (iPTH) assay systems. iPTH assays cannot distinguish between oxidized forms of PTH and non-oxidized PTH. Oxidized forms of PTH are the by far most abundant form of PTH in the circulation of patients with impaired kidney function. Oxidation of PTH causes a loss of function of PTH. Given that the clinical studies done so far were performed with an PTH assay systems that mainly detect oxidized forms of PTH, the real relationship between bioactive non-oxidized PTH and 25(OH)D as well as 1,25(OH)2D is still unknown. Methods To address this topic, we compared for the first time the relationship between 25(OH)D as well as 1,25(OH)2D and iPTH, oxPTH as well as fully bioactive n-oxPTH in 531 stable kidney transplant recipients in the central clinical laboratories of the Charité. Samples were assessed either directly (iPTH) or after oxPTH (n-oxPTH) was removed using a column that used anti-human oxPTH monoclonal antibodies, a monoclonal rat/mouse parathyroid hormone antibody (MAB) was immobilized onto a column with 500 liters of plasma samples. Spearman correlation analysis and Multivariate linear regression were used to evaluate the correlations between the variables. Results There was an inverse correlation between 25(OH)D and all forms of PTH, including oxPTH (iPTH: r=-0.197, p<0.0001; oxPTH: r=-0.203, p<0.0001; n-oxPTH: r=-0.146, p=0.001). No significant correlation was observed between 1,25(OH)2D and all forms of PTH. Multiple linear regression analysis considering age, PTH (iPTH, oxPTH and n-oxPTH), serum calcium, serum phosphor, serum creatinine, fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), osteoprotegerin (OPG), albumin, and sclerostin as confounding factors confirmed these findings. Subgroup analysis showed that our results are not affected by sex and age. Conclusion In our study, all forms of PTH are inversely correlated with 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D). This finding would be in line with an inhibition of the synthesis of all forms of PTH (bioactive n-oxPTH and oxidized forms of PTH with minor or no bioactivity) in the chief cells of the parathyroid glad.

Abstract
Background Vitamin D level is closely associated with the development of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). We aimed to systematically evaluate the effects of vitamin D supplementation on patients with PCOS, to provide reliable evidence to the clinical treatment of PCOS. Methods We searched PubMed, Medline, EMbase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, WanFang, China national knowledge infrastructure(CNKI) and Weipu databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on vitamin D supplementation for the treatment of PCOS. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and evaluated the risk of bias of included RCTs. RevMan 5.3 software was used for meta-analysis. Results 13 RCTs with 840 PCOS patients were included finally. Meta-analyses indicated that vitamin D supplementation increase the serum vitamin D level[mean difference(MD) = 17.81, 95% confidence interval(CI) (10.65, 24.97)] and endometrial thickness [MD = 1.78, 95%CI (0.49, 3.06), P = 0.007], reduce the serum hs-CRP [MD = -0.54, 95%CI (-1.00, -0.08)], parathyroid hormone[MD = -14.76, 95%CI (-28.32, -1.19)], total cholesterol[MD = -12.00, 95%CI (-18.36, -5.56)] and total testosterone level [MD = -0.17, 95%CI (-0.29, -0.05)] (all p < 0.05). No significant differences in the SHBG level [MD = 1.33, 95%CI (-2.70, 5.36)] and mF-G score [MD = 0.04, 95%CI (-0.79, 0.86)] between vitamin D and control group were found (all p > 0.05). Egger's tests showed that there were no publication biases in every synthesized result (all P > 0.05). Conclusion Vitamin D may be helpful to improve the endocrine and metabolism-related indexes in patients with PCOS. More high-quality studies with larger sample size are warranted to further evaluate the role of vitamin D supplementation in patients with PCOS.

Vitamin D Status in Critically Ill Patients with SIRS and Its Relationship with Circulating Zn and Related Parameters during ICU Stay. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14173580. [PMID: 36079837 PMCID: PMC9494352 DOI: 10.3390/nu14173580] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2022] [Revised: 08/26/2022] [Accepted: 08/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Critically ill patients are exposed to different stressors which may generate Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS). This situation hinders the assessment of micronutrients status, such as vitamin D or Zinc (Zn), potentially affecting patients’ treatment and recovery. The aim of the present study was to assess the evolution of circulating 25–Hydroxyvitamin D (25–OH–D) levels after seven days of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) stay and the influence on changes in plasma and erythrocyte Zn levels, as well as other parameters related to phosphorus–calcium metabolism. A prospective analytical study was conducted on 65 critically ill patients (42% women) aged 31–77 years with SIRS. Total 25–OH–D levels were measured in plasma samples by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, and Zn content was analyzed by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. Both 25–OH–D and 25–OH–D3 levels were directly associated with erythrocyte Zn concentration at follow-up (p = 0.046 and p = 0.011, respectively). A relationship between erythrocyte and plasma Zn was also found at this follow-up point. No such clear associations were found when considering 25–OH–D2. Different disturbances in levels of phosphorus–calcium metabolism parameters were found, suggesting a relationship between the changes of 25–OH–D3 levels and parathormone (p = 0.019) and phosphorus (p = 0.005). The findings of the present study suggest an interaction between vitamin D and Zn, in which the correct status of these micronutrients could be a potentially modifiable factor and a beneficial approach in the recovery of critically ill patients.
