Abstract Background This study aimed to investigate the interaction effect of aerobic exercise and vitamin D supplementation on inflammation (TNF-α, IL-6, CC16, SP-D, and CC16/SP-D ratio) and lung function (FEV1, FVC, and FEV1/FVC ratio) in male smokers. Methods After applying inclusion criteria, a total of 40 healthy male smokers were recruited in this study. The participants were randomly divided into four groups as follows: Aerobic Exercise + vitamin D Supplementation (AE + VitD, n = 10), Aerobic Exercise (AE, n = 10), vitamin D Supplementation (VitD, n = 10), and Control (C, n = 10). The participants in the AE + VitD and AE groups performed aerobic exercise training (running) up to 50% of the maximum heart rate, three times a week for four weeks. Participants in AE + VitD and VitD groups received 6000 IU/w vitamin D3 for four weeks. The participants in control group did not receive any intervention. Serum tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, Clara cell protein (CC16), surfactant protein (SP)-D, CC16/SP-D ratio, and lung function (FEV1, FVC, and FEV1/FVC ratio) were measured before and after four weeks of intervention. Results Serum levels of TNF-α, IL-6, and CC16 decreased significantly in AE + VitD, VitD, and AE groups after four weeks (P < 0.05). Serum SP-D level decreased significantly only in the AE + VitD group (P = 0.011). In addition, FEV1 and FVC increased significantly (P < 0.05) in AE + VitD and AE groups after four weeks of intervention. However, the interventions did not have a significant effect on CC16/SP-D ratio and FEV1/FVC ratio (P > 0.05). Furthermore, serum levels of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D increased significantly in AE + VitD and VitD groups (P < 0.05) after four weeks of intervention. However, except for TNF-α, between-group comparisons showed no significant differences in levels of IL-6, CC16, SP-D, CC16/SP-D ratio, FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC, and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (P > 0.05). Conclusions The results of present study were that aerobic exercise combined with vitamin D supplementation can reduce serum inflammatory factors and anti-inflammatory proteins and improve lung function after four weeks of intervention. Further trials with larger sample size and longer duration are suggested to confirm these results. Trial registration Retrospectively registered. IRCT20180513039637N4. Registration date: 2020/10/20.

Abstract. The serum concentrations of 25-dihydroxyvitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, vitamin D-binding protein, PTH and calcitonin were measured in three groups of elderly Norwegian subjects (age 70–96 years): active elderly living at home, warded geriatric patients not supplemented with vitamin D, and warded geriatric patients supplemented with a daily dose of 400 IU vitamin D2. The results were compared with the concentrations of vitamin D metabolites found in a group of young and middle-aged adults (age 22–59 years). Decreased serum concentrations of 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 were found in all groups of elderly compared with younger adults. Active elderly living at home had higher concentrations of 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 than geriatric ward patients. Supplementation of geriatric ward patients with 400 IU vitamin D2 resulted in an increase in the median serum 25-dihydroxyvitamin D concentration by about 30 nmol/l. Decreased median concentration of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D was found in geriatric ward patients not supplemented with vitamin D, indicating that this group is at risk of vitamin D deficiency. The active elderly living at home and the warded geriatric patients receiving vitamin D supplementation had normal median concentrations of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, indicating that nephrogenous synthesis of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D is not generally impaired in the elderly, and that a moderate vitamin D supplementation may correct low 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D levels owing to vitamin D deficiency. However, the serum concentrations of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D showed great individual variations. No significant differences were observed for vitamin D-binding protein, 'free-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D' or PTH between the groups. The median serum concentrations of 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D were significantly lower in all three groups of elderly compared with the younger adults.

We evaluated a novel assay for the measurement of 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25 (OH)2D). Immunoextraction of 1,25 (OH)2D is performed using a mini column containing a solid-phase monoclonal antibody followed by radioimmunoassay (RIA) using an 125I-labelled 1,25 (OH)2D derivative tracer and Sac-cell separation. The mean recovery of 1,25(OH)2D3 was 101%, linearity was excellent, inter- and intra-assay coefficients of variation were 9, 8 and 13% and 11, 10 and 14% at low, medium and high concentrations of 1,25(OH)2D3, respectively. The cross-reactivity of vitamin D metabolites was <0·0015% for 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, 24, 25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 and dihydrotachysterol and 0·54% for lα calcidol. 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D2 cross-reactivity was 79%. The detection limit of the assay was 5pmol/L. Comparison with a commercial radio receptor assay (RRA) and an in-house RIA gave regression equations of y = 0·94x+11·8 ( r = 0·98) and y = 0·91x-1·7 ( r = 0.95), respectively, with no major discrepancies between the methods in all patient groups studied. Plasma concentrations of 1,25 (OH)2D obtained with the assay were as follows: normal, unsupplemented subjects: mean 88, range 48–155 pmol/L, n = 68, patients with chronic renal failure: mean 11, range 3–36 pmol/L, n = 27, primary hyperparathyroidism: mean 198, range 130–299 pmol/L, n = 23, Paget's disease: mean 92, range 42–149 pmol/L, n = 24, osteomalacia: mean 43, range 27–61 pmol/L, n = 9. A minimum sample volume of 300 μL is required, the hands-on time is significantly less than other commercial assays and the measuring procedure is gamma counting rather than scintillation counting. The assay offers several advantages over previous methods and should allow more laboratories to offer measurement of 1,25 (OH)2D as part of their repertoire.

ABSTRACT This report describes the presence and activity of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-D3) in experimental bovine tuberculosis. Animals that went on to develop tuberculous lesions exhibited a rapid transient increase in serum 1,25-D3 within the first 2 weeks following infection with Mycobacterium bovis. 1,25-D3-positive mononuclear cells were later identified in all tuberculous granulomas by immunohistochemical staining of postmortem lymph node tissue. These results suggest a role for 1,25-D3 both at the onset of infection and in the development of the granuloma in these infected animals. Using a monoclonal antibody to the vitamin D receptor (VDR) as a VDR agonist, we confirmed that activation of the vitamin D pathway profoundly depresses antigen-specific, but not mitogenic, bovine peripheral blood T-cell responses (proliferation and gamma interferon production). Investigation of the mechanism of this suppression showed that the VDR antibody modified the expression of CD80 by accessory cells, such that a significant positive correlation between T-cell proliferation and accessory cell CD80 emerged.

The seasonal variation of serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D3 and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D has been investigated. Blood was taken from 27 healthy volunteers, aged 21–44 years old at 3 monthly intervals over a period of 1 year. A scrolling monthly programme with 12 quarterly (3 month) time periods was developed. A summer associated increase in 25-hydroxy vitamin D3 was significantly correlated with but lagged behind by 2 months, the increase in recorded sunlight hours. However, four individuals showed no seasonal rise but maintained constant concentrations throughout the year within the established reference range. Serum 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D showed marked intra-individual variability with no seasonal pattern although the highest concentration (180 pmol/L) was observed in the winter and no concentration greater than 108 pmol/L in the summer.

1. The response of circulating 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [l,25-(OH)2D] to challenge with vitamin D treatment both before and after 7–10 days of prednisone therapy (25 mg/day) was investigated in five anephric subjects, six patients with chronic renal failure (CRF), two patients with vitamin D intoxication and four patients with hypoparathyroidism. 2. In anephric subjects serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25-(OH)D] rose from 58 ± 48 (sd) to 377±221 (sd) nmol/l after administration of 150 μg of 25-(OH)D3 for 1 month. Serum l,25-(OH)2D, which was barely detectable in only two out of five patients under basal conditions, rose to 30 ± 21 pmol/l after 2 weeks of therapy with 25-(OH)D3, but fell to 10 ± 5 pmol/l during prednisone treatment. 3. In CRF patients circulating l,25-(OH)2D rose from 37 ± 24 to 58 ± 24 pmol/l during 25-(OH)D3 therapy, but fell to 41 ± 31 pmol/l during prednisone treatment. In two patients with rheumatoid arthritis, hypercalcaemia due to vitamin D intoxication was associated with raised levels of 1,25-(OH)2D (288 and 317 pmol/l). Administration of prednisore resulted in suppression of l,25-(OH)2D levels (132 and 96 pmol/l respectively) and reduction of serum calcium to within the normal range. 4. In the hypoparathyroid patients prednisone therapy did not affect circulating 25-(OH)D levels but serum l,25-(OH)2D fell from 192 ± 42 to 117 ± 23 pmol/l and serum calcium from 2.41 ± 0.21 to 2.20 ± 0.05 mmol/l. 5. These findings indicate that a steroid sensitive extrarenal production of l,25-(OH)2D may occur in all subjects with a threshold serum concentration of the precursor 25-(OH)D.
