Effects of Cholecalciferol on Key Components of Vitamin D-Endo/Para/Autocrine System in Experimental Type 1 Diabetes

Abstract: Objectives Recent prospective studies have found the associations between type 1 diabetes (T1D) and vitamin D deficiency. We investigated the role of vitamin D in the regulation of 25OHD-1α-hydroxylase (CYP27B1) and VDR expression in different tissues of T1D rats. Design T1D was induced in male Wistar rats by streptozotocin (55 mg/k b.w.). After 2 weeks of T1D, the animals were treated orally with or without vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol; 100 IU/rat, 30 days). Methods Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) was detect… Show more

“…Hence, insulin deficiency could possibly reduce the activity of these enzymes, leading to decreased levels of some of the vitamin D metabolites [ 26 , 27 , 28 ]. This hypothesis was supported by more recent studies [ 29 , 30 ]. However, no prospective controlled studies in humans evaluating a broad spectrum of vitamin D metabolites and related biochemical parameters have been performed to date.…”

“…Vitamin D 3 exerts its biological effect mainly through VDR (vitamin D receptor), which belongs to the nuclear receptor superfamily and regulates gene expression in a ligand-dependent manner. Their discovery and synthesis in cells of "unconventional" organs and tissues for this vitamin implies a wider range of physiological effects of the vitamin [34,35].…”

“…The data presented in Table show that diabetes causes a decrease in serum 25OHD level by 2.2 times compared with control mice. It may reflect the presence of severe vitamin D deficiency most likely due to inhibition of synthesis or/and enhanced catabolism of biologically active hydroxylated forms of vitamin D. In our previous works, we found essential changes in the functioning of vitamin D-metabolizing enzymes in liver tissue induced by T1D [16]. Vitamin D 3 supplementation partially normalized serum 25OHD without marked effect on blood glucose level (17.8 ± 3.9 mmol/l).…”
