Vitamin D Metabolites Before and After Kidney Transplantation in Patients Who Are Anephric. Am J Kidney Dis 2024:S0272-6386(24)00782-0. [PMID: 38796137 DOI: 10.1053/j.ajkd.2024.03.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2024] [Revised: 03/14/2024] [Accepted: 03/26/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024]
Abstract
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE Kidneys are vital for vitamin D metabolism, and disruptions in both production and catabolism occur in chronic kidney disease. Although vitamin D activation occurs in numerous tissues, the kidneys are the most relevant source of circulating active vitamin D. This study investigates extrarenal vitamin D activation and the impact of kidney transplantation on vitamin D metabolism in patients who are anephric. STUDY DESIGN Case series. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS Adult patients with previous bilateral nephrectomy (anephric) not receiving active vitamin D therapy evaluated at the time of (N=38) and 1 year after (n=25) kidney transplantation. ANALYTICAL APPROACH Chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry was used to measure vitamin D metabolites. Activity of CYP24A1 [24,25(OH)2D/25(OH)D] and CYP27B1 [1α,25(OH)2D/25(OH)D] is expressed as metabolic ratios. Differences between time points were evaluated by paired t-test or Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed-rank test. RESULTS At time of transplantation, 1α,25(OH)2D was detectable in all patients (4-36pg/mL). There was a linear relationship between 25(OH)D and 1α,25(OH)2D levels (r=0.58, P<0.001), with 25(OH)D explaining 34% of the variation in 1α,25(OH)2D levels. There were no associations between 1α,25(OH)2D and biointact parathyroid hormone (PTH) or fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23). One year after transplantation, 1α,25(OH)2D levels recovered (+205%), and CYP27B1 activity increased (+352%). Measures of vitamin D catabolism, 24,25(OH)2D and CYP24A1 activity increased 3- to 5-fold. Also, at 12 months after transplantation, 1α,25(OH)2D was positively correlated with PTH (ρ=0.603, P=0.04) but not with levels of 25(OH)D or FGF-23. LIMITATIONS Retrospective, observational study design with a small cohort size. CONCLUSIONS Low-normal levels of 1α,25(OH)2D was demonstrated in anephric patients, indicating production outside the kidneys. This extrarenal CYP27B1 activity may be more substrate driven than hormonally regulated. Kidney transplantation seems to restore kidney CYP27B1 and CYP24A1 activity, as evaluated by vitamin D metabolic ratios, resulting in both increased vitamin D production and catabolism. These findings may have implications for vitamin D supplementation strategies in the setting of kidney failure and transplantation. PLAIN-LANGUAGE SUMMARY Vitamin D activation occurs in multiple tissues, but the kidneys are considered the only relevant source of circulating levels. This study investigates vitamin D activation outside the kidneys by measuring vitamin D metabolites in 38 patients without kidneys. Active vitamin D was detectable in all patients, indicating production outside of the kidneys. There was a strong relationship between active and precursor vitamin D levels, but no association with mineral metabolism hormones, indicating that vitamin D production was more substrate dependent than hormonally regulated. One year after kidney transplantation, active vitamin D levels increased 2-fold and breakdown products increased 3-fold, indicating that production and degradation of the hormone recovers after kidney transplantation. These findings are relevant for future research into vitamin D supplementation in kidney failure.

The Vitamin D Metabolite Diagnostic Ratio Associates With Phenotypic Traits of Idiopathic Hypercalciuria. Kidney Int Rep 2024; 9:1072-1082. [PMID: 38765596 PMCID: PMC11101794 DOI: 10.1016/j.ekir.2024.01.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2023] [Revised: 12/05/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Underlying mechanisms for hypercalciuria remain unknown in most cases; thus, the designation "idiopathic." We hypothesized that the vitamin D-inactivating enzyme, CYP24A1 contributes to the pathogenesis of hypercalciuria in kidney stone formers. Methods We conducted association analyses between CYP24A1 activity, estimated by the vitamin D metabolite diagnostic ratio (25(OH) vitamin D3/total 24,25 (OH)2 vitamin D ratio; VMDR), and the phenotype of participants in 2 observational cohorts of kidney stone formers, the Swiss Kidney Stone Cohort (SKSC) and the Bern Kidney Stone Registry (BKSR). Circulating 25(OH)- and 24,25 (OH)2 vitamin D were quantified using a validated liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry assay. Results A total of 974 participants were included in the analysis. We found a positive association of VMDR (and hence negative association of CYP24A1 activity) with total (β 0.009 mmol/l; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.002, 0.016; P = 0.02) and ionized plasma calcium (β 0.005 mmol/l; 95% CI: 0.002, 0.008; P < 0.01), absolute and fractional excretion of urinary calcium (β 0.054 mmol/24h; 95% CI: 0.010, 0.097; P = 0.02 and β 0.046%; 95% CI: 0.018, 0.074; P < 0.01, respectively). Further, VMDR was associated with an increased likelihood of forming calcium oxalate dihydrate stones (Odds ratio [OR] 1.64; 95% CI: 1.22, 2.35; P < 0.01) and reduced bone mineral density (BMD) at the femoral neck (β -0.005 g/cm2; 95% CI: -0.010, -0.001; P = 0.04). The described associations became stronger when the analysis was confined to idiopathic calcium stone formers. Conclusion Our study reveals that CYP24A1 activity, estimated by VMDR, is associated with clinical traits previously linked to idiopathic hypercalciuria.

An ultra-sensitive and high-throughput trapping-micro-LC-MS method for quantification of circulating vitamin D metabolites and application in multiple sclerosis patients. Sci Rep 2024; 14:5545.

Abstract
Quantitative analysis of the biologically-active metabolites of vitamin D (VitD), which are crucial in regulating various physiological and pathological processes, is important for clinical investigations. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS) has been widely used for this purpose but existing LC-MS methods face challenges in achieving highly sensitive and accurate quantification of low-abundance VitD metabolites while maintaining high throughput and robustness. Here we developed a novel pipeline that combines a trapping-micro-LC-(T-µLC) with narrow-window-isolation selected-reaction monitoring MS(NWI-SRM) for ultra-sensitive, robust and high-throughput quantification of VitD metabolites in serum samples after derivatization. The selective-trapping and delivery approach efficiently removes matrix components, enabling high-capacity sample loading and enhancing sensitivity, throughput, and robustness. The NWI-SRM further improves the sensitivity by providing high selectivity. The lower limits of quantification (LOQs) achieved were markedly lower than any existing LC-MS methods: 1.0 pg/mL for 1,25(OH)2D3, 5.0 pg/mL for 24,25(OH)2D3, 30 pg/mL for both 25(OH)D2 and 25(OH)D3, all within a 9-min cycle. The method is applied to quantify VitD metabolites from 218 patients with multiple sclerosis. This study revealed negative correlations(r=- 0.44 to - 0.51) between the levels of 25(OH)D2 and all the three D3 metabolites in multiple sclerosis patients.

Abstract
Vitamin D deficiency is thought to be associated with a wide range of diseases, including diabetes, cancer, depression, neurodegenerative diseases, and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. This vitamin D deficiency is a global epidemic affecting both developing and developed countries and therefore qualitative and quantitative analysis of vitamin D in a clinical context is essential. Mass spectrometry has played an increasingly important role in the clinical analysis of vitamin D because of its accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and the ability to detect multiple substances at the same time. Despite their many advantages, mass spectrometry-based methods are not without analytical challenges. Front-end and back-end challenges such as protein precipitation, analyte extraction, derivatization, mass spectrometer functionality, must be carefully considered to provide accurate and robust analysis of vitamin D through a well-designed approach with continuous control by internal and external quality control. Therefore, the aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the development of mass spectrometry methods for vitamin D accurate analysis, including emphasis on status markers, deleterious effects of biological matrices, derivatization reactions, effects of ionization sources, contribution of epimers, standardization of assays between laboratories.

Optimised liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method for the simultaneous quantification of serum vitamin D analogues while also accounting for epimers and isobars. J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci 2024; 1233:123972. [PMID: 38163391 DOI: 10.1016/j.jchromb.2023.123972] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2023] [Revised: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
The accurate quantification of multiple vitamin D analogues simultaneously is challenging. This study set out to use liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to develop a method capable of measuring a comprehensive vitamin D profile, encompassing twelve vitamin D analogues (vitamin D2, D3, 25(OH)D2, 25(OH)D3, 1,25(OH)2D2, 1,25(OH)2D3, 24,25(OH)2D2, 24,25(OH)2D3, 3-epi-25(OH)D2, 3-epi-25(OH)D3, 7αC4 and1α(OH)D3) in a single run. Serum samples were prepared using double liquid-liquid extraction and analysed on an Agilent 6460 QQQ LC-MS/MS equipped with a Pursuit 3 Pentafluorophenyl (4.6 x 100 mm, 3 μm) column. Recovery rates for all analytes were above 95 % with a coefficient of variation (CV) below 10 %. The method exhibited good linearity (r > 0.995) and had a range of detection limits between 0.01 and 0.35 ng/mL and quantification limits between 0.15 and 0.96 ng/mL. Repeatability and within-lab precision were acceptable, with CV values below 10 % and 15 %, respectively. Method accuracy was excellent, with a systematic error below 6.60 %. additionally, all analytes-maintained stability for 48 h following sample preparation, and no interferences were observed among co-eluting analytes. Lastly, this method achieved "world-class" status according to the Sigma metric scale specifications, requiring minimal quality control to ensure data quality. This successfully validated method has the potential not only for improving vitamin D profiling procedures but also for aiding in the diagnosis of other genetic disorders where measuring beyond 25(OH)D is crucial.

Seasonal changes in free 25-(OH)D and vitamin D metabolite ratios and their relationship with psychophysical stress markers in male professional football players. Front Physiol 2023; 14:1258678.

Abstract
Introduction: Novel markers of vitamin D status are currently being investigated, including free 25-(OH)D (25-(OH)DF) and the vitamin D metabolite ratio (24,25-(OH)2D3:25-(OH)D3; VMR). The VMR may provide additional functional information on vitamin D metabolism in athletes. Therefore, the main objective of the current study was to evaluate 25-(OH)DF, bioavailable 25-(OH)D (25-(OH)DB), VMR, and psychophysical stress markers during different training periods over a half-season. The second aim was to assess the association between vitamin D binding protein (VDBP), total and free 25-(OH)D, VMRs, and psychophysical stress markers in professional football players. Moreover, we examined the relationship between 25-(OH)D3 and vitamin D metabolites (24,25-(OH)2D3, 3-epi-25-(OH)D3) to determine if training loads in different training periods influenced the vitamin D metabolome. Methods: Twenty professional football players were tested at six different time points across half a year (V1-June; V2-July; V3-August; V4-October; V5-December; V6-January). Results: Analyses indicated a significant seasonal rhythm for VDBP, and total 25-(OH)D (25-(OH)DT), 25-(OH)DB, 24,25-(OH)2D3, 3-epi-25-(OH)D3, 25-(OH)D3:24,25-(OH)2D3, and 24,25-(OH)2D3:25-(OH)D3 VMRs throughout the training period. No correlation was detected between 25-(OH)DT, 25-(OH)DB, 25-(OH)DF, vitamin D metabolites, VMRs, VDBP, and ferritin, liver enzymes (aspartate transaminase [AST] and alanine transaminase [ALT]), creatine kinase (CK), cortisol, testosterone, and testosterone-to-cortisol ratio (T/C) in each period (V1-V6). However, there was a strong statistically significant correlation between 25-(OH)D3 and 24,25-(OH)D3 in each training period. Conclusion: In conclusion, a seasonal rhythm was present for VDBP, 25-(OH)DT, 25-(OH)DB, vitamin D metabolites (24,25-(OH)2D3, 3-epi-25-(OH)D3), and VMRs (25-(OH)D3:24,25-(OH)2D3, 25-(OH)D3:3-epi-25-(OH)D3). However, no rhythm was detected for 25-(OH)DF and markers of psychophysical stress (ferritin, liver enzymes, CK, testosterone, cortisol, and T/C ratio). Moreover, the relationships between free and total 25-(OH)D with psychophysical stress markers did not demonstrate the superiority of free over total measurements. Furthermore, training loads in different training periods did not affect resting vitamin D metabolite concentrations in football players.

Abstract
Recent evidence on the association between vitamin D and cognition in mentally healthy individuals is inconsistent. Furthermore, the link between vitamin D and cognitive ability in individuals with bipolar disorder has not been studied yet. Thus, we aimed to investigate the association between 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), 24,25 dihydroxyvitamin D (24,25(OH)2D, the vitamin D metabolite ratio (VMR) and cognition in a cohort of euthymic patients with bipolar disorder. Vitamin D metabolites were measured simultaneously by liquid-chromatography tandem mass-spectrometry in serum samples from 86 outpatients with bipolar disorder and 93 healthy controls. Neither the inactive precursor 25(OH)D, nor the primary vitamin D catabolite 24,25(OH)2D, or the vitamin D metabolite ratio were significantly associated with the domains "attention", "memory", or "executive function" in individuals with bipolar disorder and healthy controls. Further, no vitamin D deficiency effect or interaction group × vitamin D deficiency was found in the cognitive domain scores. In summary, the present study does not support vitamin D metabolism as a modulating factor of cognitive function in euthymic BD patients. Considering the current study's cross-sectional design, future research should expand these results in a longitudinal setting and include additional aspects of mental health, such as manic or depressive symptoms, long-term illness course and psychopharmacological treatment.

Metabolism and pharmacokinetics of vitamin D in patients with cystic fibrosis. J Steroid Biochem Mol Biol 2023; 232:106332. [PMID: 37217104 PMCID: PMC10524963 DOI: 10.1016/j.jsbmb.2023.106332] [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: 03/10/2023] [Revised: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/19/2023] [Indexed: 05/24/2023]
Abstract
Patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) commonly have lower circulating concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) than healthy populations. We comprehensively compared measures of vitamin D metabolism among individuals with CF and healthy control subjects. In a cross-sectional study, serum from participants with CF (N = 83) and frequency-matched healthy control subjects by age and race (N = 82) were analyzed for: 25(OH)D2 and 25(OH)D3, 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamins D2 and D3 (1α,25(OH)2D2 and 1α,25(OH)2D3), 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (24,25(OH)2D3), 4β,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (4β,25(OH)2D3), 25-hydroxyvitamin D3-3-sulfate (25(OH)D3-S), and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3-3-glucuronide (25(OH)D3-G). In a 56-day prospective pharmacokinetic study, ∼25 μg deuterium-labeled 25(OH)D3 (d6-25(OH)D3) was administered intravenously to participants (N = 5 with CF, N = 5 control subjects). Serum was analyzed for d6-25(OH)D3 and d6-24,25(OH)2D3, and pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated. In the cross-sectional study, participants with CF had similar mean (SD) total 25(OH)D concentrations as control subjects (26.7 [12.3] vs. 27.7 [9.9] ng/mL) and had higher vitamin D supplement use (53% vs. 22%). However, participants with CF had lower total 1α,25(OH)2D (43.6 [12.7] vs. 50.7 [13.0] pg/mL), 4β,25(OH)2D3 (52.1 [38.9] vs. 79.9 [60.2] pg/mL), and 25(OH)D3-S (17.7 [11.6] vs. 30.1 [12.3] ng/mL) (p < 0.001 for all). The pharmacokinetics of d6-25(OH)D3 and d6-24,25(OH)D3 did not differ between groups. In summary, although 25(OH)D concentrations were comparable, participants with CF had lower 1α,25(OH)2D, 4β,25(OH)2D3, and 25(OH)D3-S concentrations than healthy controls. Neither 25(OH)D3 clearance, nor formation of 24,25(OH)2D3, appears to account for these differences and alternative mechanisms for low 25(OH)D in CF (i.e., decreased formation, altered enterohepatic recirculation) should be explored.

Exp Ther Med 2023; 26:413. [PMID: 37559932 PMCID: PMC10407981 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2023.12112] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Accepted: 06/16/2023] [Indexed: 08/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX), as a chemotherapy agent with marked therapeutic effect, can be used to treat certain types of cancer such as leukemia, lymphoma and breast cancer. However, the toxic effects of DOX on cardiomyocytes limit its clinical application. Oxidative stress has been documented to serve a pivotal role in DOX-induced cardiomyopathy. Previous studies have reported that 1,25(OH)2D3 has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects and can inhibit the renin-angiotensin system. However, the effects of 1,25(OH)2D3 on the pathophysiological processes of DOX-induced cardiomyopathy and its mechanisms remain poorly understood. To investigate these potential effects, C57BL/6J mice were used to construct a DOX-induced cardiomyopathy model and treated with 1,25(OH)2D3. At 4 weeks after the first injection of DOX, cardiac function and myocardial injury were evaluated by echocardiograph and ELISA. Masson's trichrome staining and RT-qPCR were used to assess myocardial fibrosis, and immunohistochemistry and western blotting were performed to analyze expression levels of inflammation and oxidative stress, and the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway. ChIP assay was used to assess the effects of 1,25(OH)2D3 on histone modification in the NLRP3 and Nrf2 promoters. The results showed that 1,25(OH)2D3 treatment increased LVEF and LVFS, reduced serum levels of BNP and cTnT, inhibited the collagen deposition and profibrotic molecular expression, and downregulated the levels of inflammatory cytokines in DOX-induced cardiomyopathy. ROS and antioxidant indices were also ameliorated after 1,25(OH)2D3 treatment. In addition, 1,25(OH)2D3 was found to inhibit the NLRP3 inflammasome and KEAP-Nrf2 pathways through regulation of the levels of H3K4me3, H3K27me3 and H2AK119Ub in the NLRP3 and Nrf2 promoters. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that 1,25(OH)2D3 regulated histone modification in the NLRP3 and Nrf2 promoters, which in turn inhibits the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome and oxidative stress in cardiomyocytes, alleviating DOX-induced cardiomyopathy. Therefore, 1,25(OH)2D3 may be a potential drug candidate for the treatment of DOX-induced cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Ninety archived human serum samples from the Vitamin D External Quality Assessment Scheme (DEQAS) were analyzed using a reference measurement procedure (RMP) based on isotope dilution liquid chromatography - tandem mass spectrometry (ID LC-MS/MS) for the determination of 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24,25(OH)2D3]. These 24,25(OH)2D3 results, in conjunction with concentration values assigned using RMPs for 25-hydroxyvitamin D2 [25(OH)D2] and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3], provide a valuable resource for assessing the accuracy of measurements for 24,25(OH)2D3 and for investigating the relationship between 24,25(OH)2D3 and 25(OH)D3. Results for 24,25(OH)2D3 using the RMP were compared to DEQAS consensus values demonstrating that the consensus values were not sufficient to assess the accuracy of measurements among different laboratories and methods. A multivariable regression analysis approach using historical DEQAS consensus values for various total 25(OH)D assays was used to assess the contribution of 24,25(OH)2D3 concentration on the assay response. The response of several ligand binding assays for total 25(OH)D was shown to be impacted by the presence of 24,25(OH)2D3.

Vitamin D supplementation in children and young adults with persistent proteinuria secondary to glomerular disease. Pediatr Nephrol 2023; 38:749-756.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vitamin D deficiency is common in glomerular disease. Supplementation may be ineffective due to ongoing urinary losses of vitamin D binding protein. We sought to determine if daily cholecalciferol supplementation would increase vitamin D concentrations in children with glomerular disease and persistent proteinuria, without adverse effects. METHODS Eighteen participants at least 5 years of age with primary glomerular disease and urine protein:creatinine ratio ≥ 0.5 were enrolled from four pediatric nephrology practices to receive cholecalciferol supplementation: 4,000 IU or 2,000 IU per day for serum 25 hydroxyvitamin vitamin D (25OHD) concentrations < 20 ng/mL and 20 ng/mL to < 30 ng/mL, respectively. Measures of vitamin D and mineral metabolism were obtained at baseline and weeks 6 and 12. Multivariable generalized estimating equation (GEE) regression estimated mean percent changes in serum 25OHD concentration. RESULTS Median baseline 25OHD was 12.8 ng/mL (IQR 9.3, 18.9) and increased to 27.8 ng/mL (20.5, 36.0) at week 6 (p < 0.001) without further significant increase at week 12. A total of 31% of participants had a level ≥ 30 ng/mL at week 12. Supplementation was stopped in two participants at week 6 for mildly elevated calcium and phosphorus, respectively, with subsequent declines in 25OHD of > 20 ng/mL. In the adjusted GEE model, 25OHD was 102% (95% CI: 64, 141) and 96% (95% CI: 51, 140) higher versus baseline at weeks 6 and 12, respectively (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Cholecalciferol supplementation in vitamin D deficient children with glomerular disease and persistent proteinuria safely increases 25OHD concentration. Ideal dosing to fully replete 25OHD concentrations in this population remains unknown. CLINICAL TRIAL NCT01835639.

Abstract
Recent research activities have provided new insights in vitamin D metabolism in various conditions. Furthermore, substantial progress has been made in the analysis of vitamin D metabolites and related biomarkers, such as vitamin D binding protein. Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometric (LC-MS/MS) methods are capable of accurately measuring multiple vitamin D metabolites in parallel. Nevertheless, only 25(OH)D and the biologically active form 1,25(OH)2D are routinely measured in clinical practice. While 25(OH)D remains the analyte of choice for the diagnosis of vitamin D deficiency, 1,25(OH)2D is only recommended in a few conditions with a dysregulated D metabolism. 24,25(OH)2D, free and bioavailable 25(OH)D, and the vitamin D metabolite ratio (VMR) have shown promising results, but technical pitfalls in their quantification, limited clinical data and the lack of reference values, impede their use in clinical practice. LC-MS/MS is the preferred method for the measurement of all vitamin D related analytes as it offers high sensitivity and specificity. In particular, 25(OH)D and 24,25(OH)2D can accurately be measured with this technology. When interpreted together, they seem to provide a functional measure of vitamin D metabolism beyond the analysis of 25(OH)D alone. The determination of VDBP, free and bioavailable 25(OH)D is compromised by unresolved analytical issues, lacking reference intervals and insufficient clinical data. Therefore, future research activities should focus on analytical standardization and exploration of their clinical value. This review provides an overview on established and new vitamin D related biomarkers including their pathophysiological role, preanalytical and analytical aspects, expected values, indications and influencing conditions.

Abstract
Calcitriol, and other vitamin D receptor activators, remain a primary treatment for elevated parathyroid hormone levels in patients with end stage kidney disease. The objective of this study was to assess the 24-hydroxylation-mediated metabolism of 25(OH)D3 and 1,25(OH)2D3 in rats with experimental kidney disease treated with calcitriol and in a cross-sectional analysis of patients requiring hemodialysis. Methods: Animals were stratified by creatinine into a time control group or calcitriol (20 ng/kg/day) for 3 weeks following CKD induction using a dietary adenine model (0.25% adenine). Hemodialysis patients were recruited and demographic data including calcitriol prescription was obtained by chart review and participant interview. Vitamin D metabolites were assessed using LC-MS/MS. In the rat model, 1,25(OH)2D3 levels increased substantially in calcitriol-treated rats yet there was no increase in its primary metabolite: 1,24,25(OH)2D3. A lower ratio of 1,24,25(OH)2D3:1,25(OH)2D3 (1,25-VMR) was associated with increased calcium levels in calcitriol treated rats. In hemodialysis patients (N = 86), the level of 1,25(OH)2D3 was substantially higher in calcitriol-treated patients yet there was no difference between groups in 1,24,25(OH)3D3, resulting in a marked decrease in the 1,25-VMR in calcitriol treated patients. In hemodialysis patients treated with calcitriol, 1,25(OH)2D3 and a lower ratio between 1,24,25(OH)3D3 and 1,25(OH)2D3 were associated with higher serum calcium levels. Impaired metabolism of exogenous calcitriol may contribute to the adverse effects associated with this treatment. A better understanding of the uniquely dysfunctional catabolic vitamin D profile in CKD may guide more effective treatment strategies.

24,25-Dihydroxy Vitamin D and Vitamin D Metabolite Ratio as Biomarkers of Vitamin D in Chronic Kidney Disease. Nutrients 2023; 15:nu15030578. [PMID: 36771287 PMCID: PMC9920774 DOI: 10.3390/nu15030578] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2022] [Revised: 01/16/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2023] Open
Abstract
The appropriate management of vitamin D deficiency and hyperparathyroidism is essential to prevent metabolic bone disorder (MBD) and cardiovascular diseases in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Recently, the 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [24,25(OH)2D] and vitamin D metabolite ratio (VMR), i.e., the ratio of 24,25(OH)2D to 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], have emerged as biomarkers of vitamin D level. We analyzed the usefulness of vitamin D biomarkers for the evaluation of MBD in patients with CKD. We analyzed blood and urine samples from 208 outpatients with CKD stage G2-G5. 25(OH)D showed a poor correlation with the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Conversely, the 24,25(OH)2D level and VMR were significantly correlated with eGFR and the intact parathyroid hormone level. In conclusion, 24,25(OH)2D and VMR have the potential to be vitamin D biomarkers for the detection of MBD in CKD patients.

Abstract
One hundred years ago, the role of vitamin D for bone mineralization and the prevention of rickets was discovered. Vitamin D comprises a group of over 50 metabolites with multiple functions that go far beyond calcium homeostasis and bone mineralization. Approximately 50 years ago, first methods for the measurement of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) in human blood were developed. Over the years, different analytical principals were employed including competitive protein binding assays, high-performance liquid chromatography, various immunoassay and mass spectrometric formats. Until the recent standardization of serum 25(OH)D measurement, agreement between methods was unsatisfactory. Since then, comparability has improved, but substantial variability between methods remains. With the advent of liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), the accurate determination of 25(OH)D and other metabolites, such as 24,25(OH)2D, becomes increasingly accessible for clinical laboratories. Easy access to 25(OH)D testing has triggered extensive clinical research showing that large parts of the population are vitamin D deficient. The variable response of vitamin D deficient individuals to supplementation indicates that assessing patients' vitamin D stores by measuring 25(OH)D provides limited insight into the metabolic situation. Meanwhile, first evidence has emerged suggesting that the simultaneous measurement of 25(OH)D, 24,25(OH)2D and other metabolites allows a dynamic evaluation of patients' vitamin D status on metabolic principals. This may help to identify patients with functional vitamin D deficiency from those without. It can be expected that research into the assessment vitamin D status will continue for another 50 years and that this will help rationalizing our approach in clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic variants in apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1), a protein that protects humans from infection with African trypanosomes, explain a substantial proportion of the excess risk of chronic kidney disease affecting individuals with sub-Saharan ancestry. The mechanisms by which risk variants damage kidney cells remain incompletely understood. In preclinical models, APOL1 expressed in podocytes can lead to significant kidney injury. In humans, studies in kidney transplant suggest that the effects of APOL1 variants are predominantly driven by donor genotype. Less attention has been paid to a possible role for circulating APOL1 in kidney injury. METHODS Using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, the concentrations of APOL1 were measured in plasma and urine from participants in the Seattle Kidney Study. Asymmetric flow field-flow fractionation was used to evaluate the size of APOL1-containing lipoprotein particles in plasma. Transgenic mice that express wild-type or risk variant APOL1 from an albumin promoter were treated to cause kidney injury and evaluated for renal disease and pathology. RESULTS In human participants, urine concentrations of APOL1 were correlated with plasma concentrations and reduced kidney function. Risk variant APOL1 was enriched in larger particles. In mice, circulating risk variant APOL1-G1 promoted kidney damage and reduced podocyte density without renal expression of APOL1. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that plasma APOL1 is dynamic and contributes to the progression of kidney disease in humans, which may have implications for treatment of APOL1-associated kidney disease and for kidney transplantation.

Abstract
Vitamin D3 (D3) is produced endogenously from 7-dehydrocholesterol by irradiation and is an important secosteroid for the absorption of calcium and phosphate. Lithocholic acid (LCA) increases intestinal paracellular calcium absorption in a vitamin D receptor-dependent manner in vitamin D-deficient rats. The plateau zokor (Myospalax baileyi), a strictly subterranean species, and plateau pika are endemic to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. To verify whether the zokors were deficient in D3 and reveal the effects of hypoxia on D3 metabolism in the zokors and pikas, we measured the levels of 25(OH)D3, calcium, and LCA, and quantified the expression levels of D3 metabolism-related genes. The results showed an undetectable serum level of 25(OH)D3 and a significantly higher concentration of LCA in the serum of plateau zokor, but its calcium concentration was within the normal range compared with that of plateau pika and Sprague-Dawley rats. With increasing altitude, the serum 25(OH)D3 levels in plateau pika decreased significantly, and the mRNA and protein levels of CYP2R1 (in the liver) and CYP27B1 (in the kidney) in plateau pika decreased significantly. Our results indicate that plateau zokors were deficient in D3 and abundant in LCA, which might be a substitution of D3 in the zokor. Furthermore, hypoxia suppresses the metabolism of D3 by down-regulating the expression of CYP2R1 and CYP27B1 in plateau pika.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of vitamin D in increased mortality with SARS-COV-2 virus, namely, COVID-19, remains uncertain. We analysed all the patients who were treated as COVID-19-positive with or without a positive swab and were tested for vitamin D levels. METHODS This was a retrospective, study involving 1226 patients swabbed for SARS-CoV-2 between the 10 February 2020 and 1 May 2020 at two hospitals of East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust. Patients who were swab-positive for COVID-19 or treated as COVID-19-positive on clinical grounds even though swab results were negative were included in this study. We analysed the association of vitamin D levels and mortality, assessing linear and non-linear associations. RESULTS A total of 1226 patients had SARS-CoV-2 RNA swabs in this period with age range from 1 year to 101 years. A cohort of 433 of these patients had swabs and recent vitamin D levels anytime in the previous 3 months. Mortality rates were not found to be associated with vitamin D levels (OR=1.04, 95% CI 0.96 to 1.12). CONCLUSION Our findings suggest similar mortality risk from COVID-19 irrespective of the levels of vitamin D. Larger prospective studies will be needed to confirm these findings.

[PMID: 34954017 PMCID: PMC8837693 DOI: 10.1016/j.jsbmb.2021.106047] [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: 10/26/2021] [Revised: 11/29/2021] [Accepted: 12/20/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
The formation of 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (24,25(OH)2D) from 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) is the primary mechanism for the metabolic clearance of 25(OH)D, and is regulated by tissue-level vitamin D activity. The ratio of 24,25(OH)2D3 to 25(OH)D3 in blood (vitamin D metabolite ratio, VDMR) is postulated to be a marker of 25(OH)D3 clearance, however this has never been tested. We measured baseline 24,25(OH)2D3 and 25(OH)D3 concentrations in 87 participants by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Following an infusion of deuterated 25(OH)D3, blood samples for each participant were collected over 56 days and analyzed for deuterated vitamin D metabolites. 25(OH)D3 clearance and the deuterated metabolite-to-parent AUC ratio (ratio of the AUC of deuterated 24,25(OH)2D3 to that of deuterated 25(OH)D3) were calculated. We compared the VDMR with these two measures using correlation coefficients and linear regression. Participants had a mean age of 64 ± 11years, 41 % were female, 30 % were self-described Black, 28 % had non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) and 23 % had kidney failure treated with hemodialysis. The VDMR was strongly correlated with 25(OH)D3 clearance and the deuterated metabolite-to-parent AUC ratio (r = 0.51 and 0.76, respectively). Adjusting for 25(OH)D3 clearance or the deuterated metabolite-to-parent AUC ratio in addition to clinical covariates, lower VDMR was observed in participants with CKD and kidney failure than in healthy controls; in Black than White participants; and in those with lower serum albumin. Our findings validate the VDMR as a measure of 25(OH)D3 clearance. This relationship was biased by characteristics including race and kidney disease, which warrant consideration in studies assessing the VDMR.

Abstract
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), a disorder that affects 11% of the world's population, is characterized by an acceleration in skeletal, immune, renal, and cardiovascular aging that increases the risk of cardiovascular mortality by 10- to 20-fold, compared to that in individuals with normal renal function. For more than two decades, the progressive impairment in renal capacity to maintain normal circulating levels of the hormonal form of vitamin D (1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D or calcitriol) was considered the main contributor to the reduced survival of CKD patients. Accordingly, calcitriol administration was the treatment of choice to attenuate the progression of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) and its adverse impact on bone health and vascular calcification. The development of calcitriol analogs, designed to mitigate the resistance to calcitriol suppression of PTH associated with CKD progression, demonstrated survival benefits unrelated to the control of SHPT or skeletal health. The exhaustive search for the pathophysiology behind survival benefits associated with active vitamin D analogs has identified novel anti-inflammatory, anti-hypertensive, anti-aging actions of the vitamin D endocrine system. A major paradigm shift regarding the use of calcitriol or active vitamin D analogs to improve survival in CKD patients emerged upon demonstration of a high prevalence of vitamin D (not calcitriol) deficiency at all stages of CKD and, more significantly, that maintaining serum levels of the calcitriol precursor, 25(OH)vitamin D, above 23 ng/ml delayed CKD progression. The cause of vitamin D deficiency in CKD, however, is unclear since vitamin D bioactivation to 25(OH)D occurs mostly at the liver. Importantly, neither calcitriol nor its analogs can correct vitamin D deficiency. The goals of this chapter are to present our current understanding of the pathogenesis of vitamin D deficiency in CKD and of the causal link between defective vitamin D bioactivation to calcitriol and the onset of molecular pathways that promote CKD progression independently of the degree of SHPT. An understanding of these mechanisms will highlight the need for identification of novel sensitive biomarkers to assess the efficacy of interventions with vitamin D and/or calcitriol(analogs) to ameliorate CKD progression in a PTH-independent manner.

The Vitamin D Metabolite Ratio Is Associated With Changes in Bone Density and Fracture Risk in Older Adults. J Bone Miner Res 2021; 36:2343-2350.

Abstract
Recent studies have suggested that 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) may be a poor biomarker of bone health, in part because measured levels incorporate both protein-bound and free vitamin D. The ratio of its catabolic product (24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [24,25(OH)2 D]) to 25(OH)D (the vitamin D metabolite ratio [VMR]) may provide more information on sufficient vitamin D stores and is not influenced by vitamin D-binding protein concentrations. We evaluated whether the VMR or 25(OH)D are more strongly associated with bone loss and fracture risk in older adults. We performed a retrospective cohort study of 786 community-dwelling adults aged 70 to 79 years who participated in the Health Aging and Body Composition study. Our primary outcomes were annual changes in bone density and incident fracture. The mean age of these participants was 75 ± 3 years, 49% were female, 42% were Black, and 23% had an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/mL/1.73m2 . In fully adjusted models, a 50% lower VMR was associated with 0.3% (0.2%, 0.6%) more rapid decline in total hip bone mineral density (BMD). We found similar relationships with thoracic and lumbar spine BMD. In contrast, 25(OH)D3 concentrations were not associated with longitudinal change in BMD. There were 178 fractures during a mean follow-up of 10 years. Each 50% lower VMR was associated with a 49% (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.06, 2.08) greater fracture risk, whereas lower 25(OH)D3 concentrations were not significantly associated with fracture risk (hazard ratio [HR] per 50% lower 1.07 [0.80, 1.43]). In conclusion, among a diverse cohort of community-dwelling older adults, a lower VMR was more strongly associated with both loss of BMD and fracture risk compared with 25(OH)D3 . Trials are needed to evaluate the VMR as a therapeutic target in persons at risk for worsening BMD and fracture. © 2021 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

PLoS One 2021; 16:e0258585. [PMID: 34648586 PMCID: PMC8516284 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0258585] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2021] [Accepted: 09/30/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives Vitamin D is essential for bone health. Not only total but also free 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) may contribute to bone mass. We sought to determine which vitamin D measure best reflected clinical and bone parameters in healthy children. Methods A cross-sectional study including 146 healthy children (71 boys, 9.5 ± 1.9 years) conducted at a tertiary medical center. We used a multiplex liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry-based assay to simultaneously measure vitamin D metabolites. The bioavailable and free 25OHD (25OHDBioA and 25OHDFree) levels were calculated using the genotype-specific or genotype-constant affinity coefficients of vitamin D-binding proteins (yielding spe-25OHDBioA, spe-25OHDFree and con-25OHDBioA, con-25OHDFree respectively). The 25OHDFree level was directly measured (m-25OHDFree). Bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) were assessed via dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Results The total 25OHD (25OHDTotal), the two forms of 25OHDBioA, the three forms of 25OHDFree, and 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 levels correlated with parathyroid hormone level (all p < 0.01). Serum 25OHDTotal and m-25OHDFree levels were influenced by age, pubertal status, season, body mass index (BMI), daylight hours, and vitamin D intake (all p < 0.05). The con-25OHDBioA and con-25OHDFree levels better reflected pubertal status and daylight hours than did the spe-25OHDBioA and spe-25OHDFree levels (both p < 0.01). The association between the 25OHDTotal level and bone parameters varied according to the BMI (interaction p < 0.05). In 109 normal-weight children, the con-25OHDBioA and con-25OHDFree levels correlated with total body BMC and BMD (both p < 0.05), whereas the 25OHDTotal and 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 levels were associated with total body BMC (both p < 0.05). No such association was found in overweight or obese children. Conclusions In healthy children, total, bioavailable, and free 25OHD levels comparably reflected lifestyle factors. In normal-weight children, the con-25OHDBioA and con-25OHDFree, but not m-25OHDFree levels, reflected bone mass, as did the 25OHDTotal level.

[PMID: 34519274 PMCID: PMC8558908 DOI: 10.1530/ec-21-0372] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2021] [Accepted: 09/13/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
Low serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2D) in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is considered a consequence of elevated fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and concomitant reduced activity of renal 1α-hydroxylase (CYP27B1). Current ESRD treatment strategies to increase serum calcium and suppress secondary hyperparathyroidism involve supplementation with vitamin D analogues that circumvent 1α-hydroxylase. This overlooks the potential importance of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) deficiency as a contributor to low serum 1,25(OH)2D. We investigated the effects of vitamin D (cholecalciferol) supplementation (40,000 IU for 12 weeks and maintenance dose of 20,000 IU fortnightly), on multiple serum vitamin D metabolites (25(OH)D, 1,25(OH)2D3 and 24,25(OH)2D3) in 55 haemodialysis patients. Baseline and 12 month data were compared using related-samples Wilcoxon signed rank test. All patients remained on active vitamin D analogues as part of routine ESRD care. 1,25(OH)2D3 levels were low at baseline (normal range: 60-120 pmol/L). Cholecalciferol supplementation normalised both serum 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)2D3. Median serum 25(OH)D increased from 35.1 nmol/L (IQR: 23.0-47.5 nmol/L) to 119.9 nmol/L (IQR: 99.5-143.3 nmol/L) (P < 0.001). Median serum 1,25(OH)2D3 and 24,25(OH)2D3 increased from 48.3 pmol/L (IQR: 35.9-57.9 pmol/L) and 3.8 nmol/L (IQR: 2.3-6.0 nmol/L) to 96.2 pmol/L (IQR: 77.1-130.6 pmol/L) and 12.3 nmol/L (IQR: 9-16.4 nmol/L), respectively (P < 0.001). A non-significant reduction in daily active vitamin D analogue dose occurred, 0.94 µmcg at baseline to 0.77 µmcg at 12 months (P = 0.73). The ability to synthesise 1,25(OH)2D3 in ESRD is maintained but is substrate dependent, and serum 25(OH)D was a limiting factor at baseline. Therefore, 1,25(OH)2D3 deficiency in ESRD is partly a consequence of 25(OH)D deficiency, rather than solely due to reduced 1α-hydroxylase activity as suggested by current treatment strategies.

Abstract
The world's population is aging, and the prevalence of hip fracture is rising. Vitamin D deficiency is a risk factor for hip fracture and predicts functional recovery and survival following hip fracture surgery. This cross-sectional study identified the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in Taiwanese older patients with hip fracture and potential risk factors for vitamin D deficiency. Data from older adults with hip fracture admitted to a single medical center in Taipei, Taiwan were prospectively collected. The preoperative serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentration and comprehensive clinical history of each patient were examined. A multinomial logistic regression model was used to compare the clinical characteristics of deficient, insufficient, and sufficient 25(OH)D concentration groups. The cohort comprised 310 older adults with hip fracture. The mean age was 80±10 y. The deficient, insufficient, and sufficient groups comprised 180, 84, and 46 patients (58.1%, 27.1%, and 14.8%), respectively. Univariate analysis revealed significant intergroup differences in serum albumin level and body fat percentage and marginally significant differences in serum albumin, estimated glomerular filtration rate, body mass index, and comorbidities of affective or psychotic disorders. In the multinomial logistic regression model, albumin level was the only factor significantly correlated with higher 25(OH)D concentrations in the sufficient and insufficient groups compared with the deficient group. No variable, including preinjury functional status, was significantly correlated with vitamin D deficiency except malnutrition. Our findings may aid the establishment of a robust screening and treatment program for vitamin D deficiency.

Abstract
Aims The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency is high in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, current dosing recommendations are based on limited pharmacokinetic (PK) data. This study aimed to develop a population PK model of colecalciferol that can be used to optimise colecalciferol dosing in this population. Methods Data from 83 children with CKD were used to develop a population PK model using a nonlinear mixed effects modelling approach. Serum creatinine and type of kidney disease (glomerular vs. nonglomerular disease) were investigated as covariates, and optimal dosing was determined based on achieving and maintaining 25‐hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentration of 30–48 ng/mL. Results The time course of 25(OH)D concentrations was best described by a 1‐compartment model with the addition of a basal concentration parameter to reflect endogenous 25(OH)D production from diet and sun exposure. Colecalciferol showed wide between‐subject variability in its PK, with total body weight scaled allometrically the only covariate included in the model. Model‐based simulations showed that current dosing recommendations for colecalciferol can be optimised using a weight‐based dosing strategy. Conclusion This is the first study to describe the population PK of colecalciferol in children with CKD. PK model informed dosing is expected to improve the attainment of target 25(OH)D concentrations, while minimising the risk of overdosing.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the status of bone health in women working in agriculture and analyze the associations between bone health and various vitamin D-related biomarkers.This observational study enrolled women working in agriculture (n = 210) and control occupations (n = 180). The concentration of serum total 25-hydroxy vitamin D [25(OH)D] was measured using the Elecsys Vitamin D Total Kit, and serum vitamin D-binding protein (VDBP) was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Along with albumin, 25(OH)D and VDBP were used to calculate the concentrations of bioavailable and free 25(OH)D. Bone mineral density (BMD) and T-score were measured at lumbar 1 to 4 and the femur neck using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. To identify factors affecting BMD, log-linear model and linear regression analysis were performed for statistical analysis.Agricultural women workers showed higher serum concentrations of bioavailable 25(OH)D (12.8 ± 3.7 vs 8.7 ± 5.1 ng/mL) and lower VDBP concentrations (201.8 ± 45.0 vs 216.0 ± 68.2 μg/mL) than control women. The association between these 2 vitamin D related-biomarkers and femur neck BMD were confirmed through univariable and multivariable linear model analysis. Although lumbar BMD did not differ between groups, the agricultural group displayed a lower femur BMD and a 4.3-fold increase in the risk of osteoporosis compared with the control group.Women working in agriculture showed lower femur BMD than the control group. Of the vitamin D-related biomarkers tested, bioavailable 25(OH)D and VDBP were associated with BMD. As bioavailable 25(OH)D levels are affected mainly by VDBP levels, VDBP may play a role in the lower femur neck BMD values observed in the agricultural group. Thus, the measurement of VDBP concentration might be considered a simple and non-invasive method for measuring bone health status.

Abstract
Background Vitamin D status is associated with muscle strength and maintenance of muscle fibers. However, which serum vitamin D biomarker better reflects sarcopenia remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate associations between various serum vitamin D biomarkers (total 25‐hydroxy vitamin D [25(OH)D], bioavailable 25(OH)D, 24,25‐dihydroxyvitamin D [24,25(OH)2D], and vitamin D metabolite ratio [VMR]) and sarcopenia. Methods The data for 83 hip fracture patients were finally included in the analysis. Sarcopenia was defined according to the Asia Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS) criteria. Measurements of 24,25(OH)2D and 25(OH)D were made using solid‐phase extraction (SPE) and subsequent liquid chromatography‐tandem mass spectrometry (LC‐MS/MS). Vitamin D binding protein (VDBP) concentration was measured using an enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay. The VMR was calculated by dividing serum 24,25(OH)2D by serum 25(OH)D and then multiplying by 100. Based on total 25(OH)D, VDBP, and albumin concentrations, bioavailable 25(OH)D concentrations were calculated using the equations from the other previous studies. Results Bioavailable 25(OH)D levels were significantly (p = 0.030) decreased in the sarcopenia group compared with the non‐sarcopenia group. Results of ROC analysis for the diagnosis of sarcopenia using serum level of bioavailable of 25(OH)D revealed that the cutoff point for bioavailable 25(OH)D was 1.70 ng/ml (AUC = 0.649, p < 0.001). In the group with a bioavailable 25(OH)D less than 1.70 ng/ml, the incidence of sarcopenia increased by 3.3 times (odds ratio: 3.33, p = 0.013). Conclusion We demonstrated that bioavailable 25(OH)D was associated with sarcopenia among the various serum vitamin D biomarkers. Bioavailable vitamin D might be helpful for assessing the risk of sarcopenia.

Nutrients 2021; 13:nu13061963. [PMID: 34201027 PMCID: PMC8226906 DOI: 10.3390/nu13061963] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2021] [Revised: 05/29/2021] [Accepted: 06/04/2021] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Vitamin D plays pleiotropic roles in the body and hence, changes in its metabolism and distribution during starvation could play an important role in the adaptive response to famine. We aimed to identify the responses of some vitamin D metabolites to 8 d of fasting and exercise. Methods: A repeated-measures design was implemented, in which 14 male volunteers fasted for 8 d and performed an exercise test before and after fasting. Serum samples were collected on day 1 after night fasting and after 8 d of complete food restriction, before and 1 h and 3 h after exercise. Results: After 8 d of fasting, compared with baseline values, serum 24,25(OH)2D3 and 3-epi-25(OH)D3 levels significantly increased; those of 25(OH)D3 and 1,25(OH)2D3 were unaffected; and those of 25(OH)D2 decreased. Exercise on the first day of fasting induced an increase in serum 3-epi-25(OH)D3 levels, while exercise performed after 8 d of fasting induced an increase in 25(OH)D3, 24,25(OH)2D3, 25(OH)D2, and 3-epi-25(OH)D3 levels. Conclusion: Increases in 24,25(OH)2D3 and 3-epi-25(OH)D3 levels imply that fasting stimulates vitamin D metabolism. The effects of exercise on serum vitamin D metabolites, which are most pronounced after fasting and in subjects with serum 25(OH)D3 above 25 ng/mL, support the notion that fasting and exercise augment vitamin D metabolism.

Abstract
Recent studies have highlighted relationship of allergic diseases with vitamin D deficiency. The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of maternal vitamin D levels in pregnancy on the formation of atopic dermatitis in early life. A total of 186 pregnant women and their infants who developed atopic dermatitis before the age of 2 years were involved in the prospective study. Most pregnant women (57.5%) were diagnosed with 25(OH)D deficiency (3.6 ± 4.4 ng/ml) (P = .000). Maternal 25(OH)D deficiency was directly related to atopic family anamnesis and relatively high IgE levels. In these cases, children developed atopic dermatitis before the age of 6 months (70.8%) with prevalence of moderate-severity (55%) and persistent course (68.3%) of the disease. The above mentioned supported the idea that the peculiarities of the formation of atopic dermatitis in young children are associated with low concentrations of vitamin D in mothers during pregnancy.

BACKGROUND Evidence is growing for a role of vitamin D in regulating skeletal muscle mass, strength and functional capacity. Given the role the kidneys play in activating total vitamin D, and the high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), it is possible that deficiency contributes to the low levels of physical function and muscle mass in these patients. METHODS This is a secondary cross-sectional analysis of previously published interventional study, with in vitro follow up work. 34 CKD patients at stages G3b-5 (eGFR 25.5 ± 8.3 mL/min/1.73m2; age 61 ± 12 years) were recruited, with a sub-group (n = 20) also donating a muscle biopsy. Vitamin D and associated metabolites were analysed in plasma by liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectroscopy and correlated to a range of physiological tests of muscle size, function, exercise capacity and body composition. The effects of 1α,25(OH)2D3 supplementation on myogenesis and myotube size was investigated in primary skeletal muscle cells from vitamin D deficient donors. RESULTS In vivo, there was no association between total or active vitamin D and muscle size or strength, but a significant correlation with V̇O2Peak was seen with total vitamin D (25OHD). in vitro, 1α,25(OH)2D3 supplementation reduced IL-6 mRNA expression, but had no effect upon proliferation, differentiation or myotube diameter. CONCLUSIONS Vitamin D deficiency is not a prominent factor driving the loss of muscle mass in CKD, but may play a role in reduced exercise capacity.

Abstract
Objectives Clinical evaluation of vitamin D status is conventionally performed by measuring serum levels of a single vitamin D metabolite, 25-hydroxyvitamin D predominantly by immunoassay methodology. However, this neglects the complex metabolic pathways involved in vitamin D bioactivity, including two canonical forms D3 and D2, bioactive 1,25-dihydroxy metabolites and inactive 24-hydroxy and other metabolites. Methods Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) can measure multiple analytes in a sample during a single run with high sensitivity and reference level specificity. We therefore aimed to develop and validate a LC-MS/MS method to measure simultaneously 13 circulating vitamin D metabolites and apply it to 103 human serum samples. Results The LC-MS/MS method using a Cookson-type derivatization reagent phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione (PTAD) quantifies 13 vitamin D metabolites, including mono and dihydroxy-metabolites, as well as CYP11A1-derived D3 and D2 metabolites in a single run. The lower limit of quantitation was 12.5 pg/mL for 1,25(OH)2D3 with accuracy verified by analysis of National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 972a standards. Quantification of seven metabolites (25(OH)D3, 25(OH)D2, 3-epi-25(OH)D3, 20(OH)D3, 24,25(OH)2D3, 1,25(OH)2D3 and 1,20S(OH)2D3) was consistently achieved in human serum samples. Conclusions This profiling method can provide new insight into circulating vitamin D metabolite pathways forming the basis for improved understanding of the role of vitamin D in health and disease.

Abstract
The risk of vitamin D insufficiency in humans is a global problem that requires improving ways to increase vitamin D intake. Supplements are a primary means for increasing vitamin D intake, but without a clear consensus on what constitutes vitamin D sufficiency, there is toxicity risk with taking supplements. Chickens have been used in many vitamin-D-related research studies, especially studies involving vitamin D supplementation. Our state-of-the-art review evaluates vitamin D metabolism and how the different hydroxylated forms are synthesized. We provide an overview of how vitamin D is absorbed, transported, excreted, and what tissues in the body store vitamin D metabolites. We also discuss a number of studies involving vitamin D supplementation with broilers and laying hens. Vitamin D deficiency and toxicity are also described and how they can be caused. The vitamin D receptor (VDR) is important for vitamin D metabolism; however, there is much more to understand about VDR in chickens. Potential research aims involving vitamin D and chickens should explore VDR mechanisms that could lead to newer insights into VDR. Utilizing chickens in future research to help elucidate vitamin D mechanisms has great potential to advance human nutrition. Finding ways to increase vitamin D intake will be necessary because the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is leading to increased risk of vitamin D deficiency in many populations. Chickens can provide a dual purpose with addressing pandemic-caused vitamin D deficiency: 1) vitamin D supplementation gives chickens added-value with the possibility of leading to vitamin-D-enriched meat and egg products; and 2) using chickens in research provides data for translational research. We believe expanding vitamin-D-related research in chickens to include more nutritional aims in vitamin D status has great implications for developing better strategies to improve human health.

[PMID: 33713690 DOI: 10.1016/j.cca.2021.03.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2020] [Revised: 01/10/2021] [Accepted: 03/04/2021] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
Vitamin D, an important hormone with a central role in calcium and phosphate homeostasis, is required for bone and muscle development as well as preservation of musculoskeletal function. The most abundant vitamin D metabolite is 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], which is currently considered the best marker to evaluate overall vitamin D status. 25(OH)D is therefore the most commonly measured metabolite in clinical practice. However, several other metabolites, although not broadly measured, are useful in certain clinical situations. Vitamin D and all its metabolites are circulating in blood bound to vitamin D binding protein, (VDBP). This highly polymorphic protein is not only the major transport protein which, along with albumin, binds over 99% of the circulating vitamin D metabolites, but also participates in the transport of the 25(OH)D into the cell via a megalin/cubilin complex. The accurate measurement of 25(OH)D has proved a difficult task. Although a reference method and standardization program are available for 25(OH)D, the other vitamin D metabolites still lack this. Interpretation of results, creation of clinical supplementation, and generation of therapeutic guidelines require not only accurate measurements of vitamin D metabolites, but also the accurate measurements of several other "molecules" related with bone metabolism. IFCC understood this priority and a committee has been established with the task to support and continue the standardization processes of vitamin D metabolites along with other bone-related biomarkers. In this review, we present the position of this IFCC Committee on Bone Metabolism on the latest developments concerning the measurement and standardization of vitamin D metabolites and its binding protein, as well as clinical indications for their measurement and interpretation of the results.

Abstract
LC-MS/MS has recently emerged as the best-practice for simultaneous analysis of vitamin D metabolites. We have developed and validated an LC-MS/MS method for simultaneous quantification of 25(OH)D3, 24,25(OH)2D3, and 3-epi-25(OH)D3 in human serum. These three metabolites were extracted from 50 μL of serum by acetonitrile protein precipitation followed by salting-out of acetonitrile. DAPTAD (4-(4'-dimethylaminophenyl)-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione) was used to derivatize the extracted metabolites and their deuterated isotope internal standards. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a UPLC C18 column (Waters® ACQUITY 100 × 2.1 mm, 1.7 µm) utilizing 0.1% formic acid and acetonitrile as mobile phases. Limits of quantification were 1 ng/mL for 25(OH)D3 and 0.1 ng/mL for 24,25(OH)D3 and 3-epi-25(OH)D3. In-house and external Vitamin D External Quality Assessment Scheme (DEQAS) quality control sample analysis revealed satisfactory method accuracy. Within-analytical batch and between analytical batches precision were <15%. Extraction recovery for the three analytes were all ˃ 85% and all showed adequate autosampler, bench-top and freeze-thaw stability. Inter-methodological comparison of 25(OH)D3 results in patient serum samples revealed systematic and proportional differences between our method and DiaSorin® Liaison immunoassay, however a good agreement with an independent LC-MS/MS method was found.

Abstract
Background Vitamin D status is presently assessed by measuring total serum concentration of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D]. However, 25(OH)D concentration alone might not accurately reflect vitamin D status owing to its weak relationship with various clinical indices and inconsistency across races. Recently, 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [24,25(OH)2D] and vitamin D metabolite ratio [VMR; ratio of 24,25(OH)2D to 25(OH)D] have emerged as vitamin D biomarkers. The present study aimed to determine the values of 24,25(OH)2D and VMR in healthy Koreans and compare them with other vitamin D biomarkers, including 25(OH)D and bioavailable 25(OH)D. Methods Serum samples and medical information were collected from 200 individuals (100 females and 100 males) who underwent general health checks without self-reported symptoms. We measured 24,25(OH)2D concentration using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry, and concentrations of 25(OH)D and vitamin D binding protein using immunoassays. VMR and bioavailable 25(OH)D concentration were calculated using the above data. Serum parathyroid hormone level, and bone mineral density (BMD) data were collected as clinical outcomes, and the effects of the vitamin D markers on them were tested using multiple linear regression models. Results The mean values of 25(OH)D, 24,25(OH)2D, VMR, and bioavailable 25(OH)D were 24.3 ± 8.5 ng/mL, 1.9 ± 1.1 ng/mL, 7.6 ± 2.5, and 3.2 ± 1.2 ng/mL, respectively. The concentration of 25(OH)D closely correlated with 24,25(OH)2D (R = 0.868, P < 0.001) and bioavailable 25(OH)D (R = 0.862, P < 0.001). No significant effects of 24,25(OH)2D, VMR, and bioavailable 25(OH)D were observed on the prediction of PTH and BMD in the multiple linear regression models. Conclusion Our study presents the distribution of 24,25(OH)2D concentration and VMR in Korean population for the first time. Overall, our data reaffirm that 25(OH)D is the primary marker for determining vitamin D status in the general population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conversion of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) to the active form of vitamin D occurs primarily in the kidney. Observational studies suggest 25(OH)D clearance from the circulation differs by kidney function and race. However, these potential variations have not been tested using gold-standard methods. METHODS We administered intravenous, deuterated 25(OH)D3 (d-25[OH]D3) in a pharmacokinetic study of 87 adults, including 43 with normal eGFR (≥60 ml/min per 1.73 m2), 24 with nondialysis CKD (eGFR <60 ml/min per 1.73 m2), and 20 with ESKD treated with hemodialysis. We measured concentrations of d-25(OH)D3 and deuterated 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 at 5 minutes and 4 hours after administration, and at 1, 4, 7, 14, 21, 28, 42, and 56 days postadministration. We calculated 25(OH)D clearance using noncompartmental analysis of d-25(OH)D3 concentrations over time. We remeasured 25(OH)D clearance in a subset of 18 participants after extended oral vitamin-D3 supplementation. RESULTS The mean age of the study cohort was 64 years; 41% were female, and 30% were Black. Mean 25(OH)D clearances were 360 ml/d, 313 ml/d, and 263 ml/d in participants with normal eGFR, CKD, and kidney failure, respectively (P=0.02). After adjustment for age, sex, race, and estimated blood volume, lower eGFR was associated with reduced 25(OH)D clearance (β=-17 ml/d per 10 ml/min per 1.73 m2 lower eGFR; 95% CI, -21 to -12). Black race was associated with higher 25(OH)D clearance in participants with normal eGFR, but not in those with CKD or kidney failure (P for interaction=0.05). Clearance of 25(OH)D before versus after vitamin-D3 supplementation did not differ. CONCLUSIONS Using direct pharmacokinetic measurements, we show that 25(OH)D clearance is reduced in CKD and may differ by race. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRY NAME AND REGISTRATION NUMBER Clearance of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in Chronic Kidney Disease (CLEAR), NCT02937350; Clearance of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 During Vitamin D3 Supplementation (CLEAR-PLUS), NCT03576716.

Abstract
Background: Depression is a common complication of pregnancy and vitamin D deficiency is one biological risk factor for postpartum depression (PPD). Materials and Methods: We evaluated the ratio of 24,25(OH)2D and 25(OH)D serum concentrations referred to as the Vitamin D Metabolite Ratio (VMR), a new candidate biomarker during pregnancyand its relationship with PPD. Women were enrolled in the first trimester of pregnancy and followed through four timepoints. Results: A total of 89 women had complete depression, biomarker and demographic data and 34% were at risk for PPD (CES-D≥16). Stepwise multiple logistic regression models for PPD risk were carried out with eight predictors. Results showed that only lower VMR, OR = 1.43, 95% CI 1.10-1.86, p = 0.007, and Hispanic/Latina identification, OR = 3.83, 95% CI 1.44-10.92, p = 0.007 were significantly associated with higher PPD risk. Conclusion: Routine prenatal screening for vitamin D metabolites, particularly in Hispanic/Latina women, may identify women at risk for PPD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND 25-Hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] may be a poor marker of vitamin D status as it reflects differences in vitamin D binding protein (VDBP) between individuals. The vitamin D metabolite ratio [VMR, ratio of 24,25(OH)2D3 to 25(OH)D3] is a marker of vitamin D status that has been hypothesized to be independent of variability in VDBP. This hypothesis has not been directly evaluated. METHODS We measured 25(OH)D3, 24,25(OH)2D3, 1,25(OH)2D3, and VDBP in 377 community-dwelling older adults that participated in the Health Aging and Body Composition Study. 24,25(OH)2D3 and 25(OH)D3 were used to calculate the VMR. We used linear regression to assess the relationship between VDBP with the VMR, 24,25(OH)2D3, 25(OH)D3, and 1,25(OH)2D3. RESULTS Participants had mean age 75 ± 3 years, 52% were female, 40% were black, and 24% had chronic kidney disease. VDBP concentrations were associated with sex, serum albumin, and VDBP phenotype in multivariable models. In fully adjusted models, each 1% higher VDBP was associated with a 0.92%[95% CI(0.37,1.49%)], 0.76% (0.39, 1.13%), and 0.57% (0.29, 0.85%), higher 24,25(OH)2D3, 25(OH)D3, and 1,25(OH)2D3. The VMR was independent of VDBP concentration, [0.16%(-0.11, 0.44) higher VMR per 1% higher VDBP, P = .25]. CONCLUSIONS The VMR was independent of VDBP concentration, whereas VDBP was strongly directly associated with the individual vitamin D metabolite concentrations. Prior studies evaluating only 25(OH)D3 may have been confounded by absence of data on VDBP status. The VMR may serve as an important biomarker of vitamin D status and clinical outcomes that can be utilized in populations with a large spectrum of VDBP concentrations.

Ahmed LHM, Butler AE, Dargham SR, Latif A, Chidiac OM, Atkin SL, Abi Khalil C. Vitamin D 3 metabolite ratio as an indicator of vitamin D status and its association with diabetes complications. BMC Endocr Disord 2020; 20:161. [PMID: 33109163 PMCID: PMC7590744 DOI: 10.1186/s12902-020-00641-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2020] [Accepted: 10/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Vitamin D deficiency is diagnosed by total serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentration and is associated with poor health and increased mortality; however, some populations have low 25(OH) D concentrations without manifestations of vitamin D deficiency. The Vitamin D Metabolite Ratio (VMR) has been suggested as a superior indicator of vitamin D status. Therefore, VMR was determined in a population with type 2 diabetes at high risk for vitamin D deficiency and correlated with diabetic complications. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Four hundred sisty patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) were recruited, all were vitamin D3 supplement naive. Plasma concentration of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D3) and its metabolites 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) and 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (24,25(OH)2D3) and its epimer, 3-epi-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (3-epi-25(OH)D3), were measured by LC-MS/MS analysis. VMR-1 was calculated as a ratio of 24,25(OH)2D3:25(OH)D3; VMR-2 as a ratio of 1,25(OH)2D3:25(OH)D3; VMR-3 was calculated as a ratio of 3-epi-25(OH)D3: 25(OH)D3. RESULTS: An association means that there were significant differences between the ratios found for those with versus those without the various diabetic complications studied. VMR-1 was associated with diabetic retinopathy (p = 0.001) and peripheral artery disease (p = 0.012); VMR-2 associated with hypertension (p < 0.001), dyslipidemia (p < 0.001), diabetic retinopathy (p < 0.001), diabetic neuropathy (p < 0.001), coronary artery disease (p = 0.001) and stroke (p < 0.05). VMR-3 associated with hypertension (p < 0.05), dyslipidemia (p < 0.001) and coronary artery disease (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS In this cross sectional study, whilst not causal, VMR-2 was shown to be the superior predictor of diabetic and cardiovascular complications though not demonstrative of causality in this cross-sectional study population over VMR-1, VMR-3 and the individual vitamin D concentration measurements; VMR-2 associated with both microvascular and cardiovascular indices and therefore may have utility in predicting the development of diabetic complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Phosphate binders are commonly used in the treatment of patients with hyperphosphatemia. While phosphate binders are used to lower phosphate, the effects of specific phosphate binder types on vitamin D metabolism are unknown. METHODS We performed a secondary analysis of the Phosphate Normalization Trial in which patients with moderate to advanced chronic kidney disease were randomized to receive either placebo, sevelamer carbonate, lanthanum carbonate or calcium acetate for 9 months. We evaluated changes in serum concentrations of vitamin D metabolites including 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24,25(OH)2D3], 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3], the ratio of 24,25(OH)2D3 to 25-hydroxyvitamin D [the vitamin D metabolite ratio (VMR)] and the ratio of serum 1,25(OH)2D to 25-hydroxyvitamin D. RESULTS Compared with placebo, randomization to the calcium acetate arm was associated with a 0.6 ng/mL (95% CI 0.2, 1) and 13.5 pg/ng (95% CI 5.5, 21.5) increase in 24,25(OH)2D and VMR, respectively, and a 5.2 pg/mL (95% CI 1.1, 9.4) reduction in 1,25(OH)2D. Randomization to sevelamer carbonate was associated with a 0.5 ng/mL (95% CI -0.9, -0.1) and 11.8 pg/ng (95% CI -20, -3.5) reduction in 24,25(OH)2D3 and VMR, respectively. There was no association of the sevelamer arm with the change in 1,25(OH)2D3, and randomization to lanthanum carbonate was not associated with a change in any of the vitamin D metabolites. CONCLUSION Administration of different phosphate binders to patients with moderate to severe CKD results in unique changes in vitamin D metabolism.

Abstract
Vitamin D plays a role not only in the proper functioning of the skeletal system and the calcium-phosphate equilibrium, but also in the immune system, the cardiovascular system and the growth and division of cells. Although numerous studies have reported on the analysis of vitamin D status in various groups of patients, the clinical significance of measurements of vitamin D forms and metabolites remains ambiguous. This article reviews the reports analyzing the status of vitamin D in various chronic states. Particular attention is given to factors affecting measurement of vitamin D forms and metabolites. Relevant papers published during recent years were identified by an extensive PubMed search using appropriate keywords. Measurement of vitamin D status proved to be a useful tool in diagnosis and progression of metabolic syndrome, neurological disorders and cancer. High performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry has become the preferred method for analyzing the various forms and metabolites of vitamin D in biological fluids. Factors influencing vitamin D concentration, including socio-demographic and biochemical factors as well as the genetic polymorphism of the vitamin D receptor, along with vitamin D transporters and enzymes participating in vitamin D metabolism should be considered as potential confounders of the interpretation of plasma total 25(OH)D concentrations.

Abstract
Today, the possibility exists to measure a number of different vitamin D metabolites with accurate and precise methods. The most abundant vitamin D metabolite, 25(OH)D, is considered the best marker for estimating vitamin D status and is therefore the most commonly measured in clinical practice. There is no consensus on the added value of measuring other metabolites beyond 25-hydroxyvitamin D, although, in some special clinical scenarios and complicated cases, these metabolites may provide just the information needed for an accurate diagnosis. The problem this review addresses is which metabolite to measure and when and how to measure it.

Abstract
It has been more than 80 years since the discovery of vitamin D and its ability to cure rickets in children. Vitamin D is a secosteroid and comes in two distinct forms, vitamin D2 and vitamin D3. During the last 40 years, the synthesis and metabolism of vitamin D were elucidated and more than 50 metabolites of vitamin D have been discovered, though commercial measurement procedures have been developed for only a few of them. The clinical significance of vitamin D in calcium and phosphorus homeostasis is well appreciated. However, recent epidemiological data have indicated that it has several extra-skeletal physiologic actions which are still a matter of scientific debate. Both research findings and the debate around the interpretation of the research results have created increased interest in more measurements of vitamin D. With the ever growing family of measurable vitamin D metabolites and the measuring techniques comes a question: What metabolic product will provide the right answers and which is the best way to measure it. The right choice of analytical technique is connected with the question of which metabolite we aim to measure, what is its serum concentration, and the purpose of the measurement. The aim of the first part of this review is to provide a brief overview of vitamin D metabolism and a more detailed analysis of the existing methods and the status of standardization for the measurement of 25-hydroxyvitamin D.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vitamin D has potential immunomodulating benefits in infection. One prior population-based cross-sectional study showed a protective association between serum concentrations of 25(OH)D and high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) detection. Additional biomarkers present at different stages along the vitamin D metabolic pathway may more completely characterize vitamin D status but have not yet been evaluated in relation to hrHPV infection. METHODS Stored sera from women aged 30-50 years (N = 404) enrolled in an HPV natural history study from 2011-2012 were tested for 25(OH)D and 4 novel vitamin D biomarkers: 1,25(OH)2D, 24,24(OH)2D3, free vitamin D, and vitamin D-binding protein. Cross-sectional associations between vitamin D serum concentrations and cervicovaginal hrHPV detection were estimated using logistic regression. RESULTS 25(OH)D serum concentrations were not associated with hrHPV. After adjusting for age, race, season, education, oral contraceptive use, smoking status, body mass index, and serum concentrations of calcium and phosphate, each 1 ng/mL increase in 24,25(OH)2D3 was nearly statistically significantly associated with higher likelihood of hrHPV detection [aOR = 1.22; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.97-1.52]. No significant associations were observed for other biomarkers. CONCLUSIONS 25(OH)D serum concentrations were unassociated with prevalent hrHPV. Higher levels of one novel biomarker, 24,25(OH)2D3, were positively associated with hrHPV, an unexpected finding. IMPACT Inconsistent with previous findings of a protective association between 25(OH)D and prevalent hrHPV infection, these results suggest serum concentrations of 4 vitamin D biomarkers are unassociated with detection of hrHPV in mid-adult women.

Abstract
The demand for measurement of vitamin D metabolites for clinical diagnosis and to advance our understanding of the role of vitamin D in human health has significantly increased in the last decade. New developments in technologies employed have enabled the separation and quantification of additional metabolites and interferences. Also, developments of immunoassays have changed the landscape. Programmes and materials for assay standardisation, harmonisation and the expansion of the vitamin D external quality assurance scheme (DEQAS) with the provision of target values as measured by a reference measurement procedure have improved standardisation, quality assurance and comparability of measurements. In this article, we describe developments in the measurement of the commonly analysed vitamin D metabolites in clinical and research practice. We describe current analytical approaches, discuss differences between assays, their origin, and how these may be influenced by physiological and experimental conditions. The value of measuring metabolites beyond 25 hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), the marker of vitamin D status, in routine clinical practice is not yet confirmed. Here we provide an overview of the value and application of the measurement of 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D, 24,25 dihydroxyvitamin D and free 25OHD in the diagnosis of patients with abnormalities in vitamin D metabolism and for research purposes.

Abstract
Obesity is characterized by a blunted lipolytic response in abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and low circulating vitamin D levels. Here we investigated whether an impaired SAT lipolytic response coincides with an impaired SAT vitamin D release in eight lean and six obese men. 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3 ] and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2 D3 ] fluxes across SAT were measured using arterio-venous blood sampling in combination with AT blood flow measurements after an overnight fast and during 1-hr intravenous infusion of the non-selective ß-adrenergic agonist isoprenaline (20 ng·kg FFM-1 ·min-1 ). 1,25(OH)2 D3 was released across abdominal SAT during isoprenaline infusion in lean [-0.01 (-0.04 to 0.00) pmol*100 g tissue-1 *min-1 , p = .017 vs. zero flux], but not in obese men [0.01 (0.00 to 0.02) pmol*100 g tissue-1 *min-1 , p = .116 vs. zero flux], and accompanied by an impaired isoprenaline-induced lipolytic response in abdominal SAT of obese versus lean men. Isoprenaline had no significant effects on net 25(OH)D3 release across abdominal SAT and plasma vitamin D metabolites in lean and obese men. To conclude, a blunted isoprenaline-mediated lipolysis is accompanied by reduced release of 1,25(OH)2 D3 vitamin D across abdominal SAT in obesity.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Vitamin D is obtained by the body via sunlight on the skin, from the diet, or from supplementation. The primary function of vitamin D is to maintain calcium homeostasis and bone health, but in the past decade, numerous other health benefits have been proposed.
Content
With the increased awareness of the potential benefits of maintaining sufficient concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D, clinicians began ordering this test for their patients much more frequently. The number of available methods increased, but with that came a larger focus on the challenges of measuring 25-hydroxyvitamin D accurately due to binding to vitamin D-binding protein and the presence of other vitamin D metabolites. Further, standardization of these assays became a focus for several organizations so that clinical guidelines can be applicable to every patient regardless of what methodology is used in 25-hydroxyvitamin D measurement.
Summary
Improvements are being made in the specificity, accuracy, and standardization of the measurement of 25-hydroxyvitamin D, and the future of this testing is looking brighter.

Vitamin D Metabolic Ratio and Risks of Death and CKD Progression. Kidney Int Rep 2019; 4:1598-1607.

Abstract
Introduction Assessment of impaired vitamin D metabolism is limited by lack of functional measures. CYP24A1-mediated vitamin D clearance, calculated as the ratio of serum 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 to 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (the vitamin D metabolic ratio, VDMR), is induced by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D and may assess tissue-level activity. We tested associations of the VDMR with risks of death and progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods We studied participants from the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC), which included a random subset of 1080 CRIC participants plus additional participants who experienced ESRD or died (case cohort study design). Serum 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 was measured 1 year after enrollment. The primary outcomes included death and progression to ESRD. Using inverse probability weighting, we tested associations of VDMR (24,25[OH]2D3/25[OH]D3) with risks of death and ESRD, adjusting for demographics, comorbidity, and kidney function (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] and urine protein-to-creatinine ratio [PCR]). Results There were a total of 708 ESRD events and 650 deaths events over mean (SD) follow-up periods of 4.9 (2.9) years and 6.5 (2.5) years, respectively. Lower VDMR was associated with increased risk of ESRD prior to adjusting for kidney function (hazard ratio [HR], 1.80 per 20 pg/ng lower VDMR; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.56–2.08), but not with adjustment for kidney function (HR, 0.94 per 20 pg/ng; 95% CI, 0.81–1.10). Lower VDMR was associated with modestly increased mortality risk, including adjustment for kidney function (HR, 1.18 per 20 pg/ng; 95% CI, 1.02–1.36). Conclusion Lower VDMR, a measure of CYP24A1-mediated vitamin D clearance, was significantly associated with all-cause mortality but not with progression to ESRD in patients with CKD.
