Total and Free Circulating Vitamin D and Vitamin D–Binding Protein in Relation to Colorectal Cancer Risk in a Prospective Study of African Americans

Abstract: Background Previous studies rarely evaluated the associations between vitamin D binding protein and free vitamin D with colorectal cancer (CRC) risk. We assessed these biomarkers and total 25-hydroxyvitamin D in relation to CRC risk in a sample of African Americans. Methods Cases comprised 224 African American participants of the Southern Community Cohort Study diagnosed with incident CRC. Controls (N=440) were selected through incidence density sampling and matched to cases on age, sex, and race. Conditiona… Show more

“…Altogether, these processes result in decreased total serum protein which was also seen in our study (Table I). However, our results did not demonstrate significant independ-ent contribution of VDBP to the modulation of risk for CRC development (Table V), which is in line with previous researches (28,29), thus suggesting that the impact of VDBP during CRC progression is more likely indirect and related to vitamin D.…”

“…It should also be mentioned that we observed significantly lower VDBP levels in CRC patients when compared to healthy participants ( Table I). Such results were expectable since VDBP is primarily synthesized by the liver and it is well documented that tumor-associated inflammation and production of cytokines can decrease hepatic protein synthesis, while on the other hand, malignant cells can increasingly uptake serum proteins (28). Altogether, these processes result in decreased total serum protein which was also seen in our study (Table I).…”

“…Results from univariate analysis showed that the serum concentration of pre‐ and post‐operative 25(OH)D in male patients and rectal tumors were significantly higher ( P = .003, P = .007, P = .007, and P = .032, respectively). Andersen et al found that the inverse association between serum 25(OH)D and CRC was more prominent in females than males . A meta‐analysis including 1248 cases of CRC suggested that 25(OH)D had stronger inverse associations with colon than with rectal tumors .…”

“…Benefited by the development of screening tools for early detection, more and more patients could be treated at an early stage; however, the incidence and mortality of CRC among adults aged under 50 years is increasing in the United States . Accumulating evidence indicates that high levels of circulating vitamin D is an anti‐cancer factor, which may reduce the risk of CRC …”
