Investigations of the Anti-inflammatory Effects of Vitamin D in Adipose Tissue: Results from an In Vitro Study and a Randomized Controlled Trial.

Department of Endocrinology and Internal Medicine MEA, Aarhus University Hospital, Aarhus, Denmark.Inflammation is a key feature of obesity and type 2 diabetes. The active vitamin D metabolite, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)2D], modulates the inflammation in vitro. We studied whether inflammation in adipose tissue (AT) cultures could be reduced by incubation with 1,25(OH)2D in vitro, or by oral treatment with vitamin D in vivo in obese subjects with low plasma levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D. Samples of subcutaneous AT were stimulated with IL-1β to induce inflammation. In the in vitro study, samples were concomitantly incubated with or without 1,25(OH)2D, and analyzed for mRNA and protein levels of inflammatory markers IL-6, IL-8, and MCP-1.
In the in vivo study, samples of subcutaneous AT from obese subjects obtained before and after treatment with 7 000 IU of vitamin D daily or placebo in a randomized controlled trial were stimulated with IL-1β. The samples were analyzed for AT gene expression and compared with plasma markers of inflammation. In the in vitro study, concomitant incubation with 1,25(OH)2D reduced mRNA levels of MCP-1 by 45% (p=0.01), of IL-6 by 32% (p=0.002), and of IL-8 by 34% (p=0.03), and reduced secretion of IL-8 protein by 18% (p=0.005). In vivo treatment with vitamin D did not reduce AT expression or circulating levels of MCP-1, IL-6, or IL-8. 1,25(OH)2D has significant anti-inflammatory effects in AT in vitro. However, a similar reduction in AT and systemic inflammation cannot be obtained by oral treatment with vitamin D in obese subjects.

VitaminDWiki – Overview Obesity and Vitamin D contains:
- FACT: People who are obese have less vitamin D in their blood
- FACT: Obese need a higher dose of vitamin D to get to the same level of vit D
- FACT: When obese people lose weight the vitamin D level in their blood increases
- FACT: Adding Calcium, perhaps in the form of fortified milk, often reduces weight
- FACT: 168 trials for vitamin D intervention of obesity as of Dec 2021
- FACT: Less weight gain by senior women with > 30 ng of vitamin D
- FACT: Dieters lost additional 5 lbs if vitamin D supplementation got them above 32 ng - RCT
- FACT: Obese lost 3X more weight by adding $10 of Vitamin D
- FACT: Those with darker skins were more likely to be obese Sept 2014
- OBSERVATION: Low Vitamin D while pregnancy ==> more obese child and adult
- OBSERVATION: Many mammals had evolved to add fat and vitamin D in the autumn
- and lose both in the Spring - unfortunately humans have forgotten to lose the fat in the Spring
- SPECULATION: Low vitamin D might be one of the causes of obesity – several studies
- SUGGESTION: Probably need more than 4,000 IU to lose weight if very low on vitamin D due to
risk factors such as overweight, age, dark skin, live far from equator,shut-in, etc. - Obesity category has
