Abstract
Background There is increasing requests of Vitamin D test in many clinical settings in recent years. However, immunoassay performance is still a controversial topic. Several diagnostic manufacturers have launched automated 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OH D) immunoassays in the past decade. We compared the performance of Abbott Architect 25-OH D Vitamin immunoassay with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry systems (LCMS/MS) to evaluate immunoassay performance, especially in deficient groups. Methods Eighty human serum samples were analyzed with Architect 25-OH D vitamin kit (Abbott Diagnostics, Lake Forest, IL, USA) and LC-MS/MS systems (Zivak Technology, Istanbul, Turkey). The results of the immunoassay method were compared with the LC-MS/MS using Passing-Bablok regression analysis, Bland-Altman plots and correlation coefficient analysis. We also evaluated results in four levels of D vitamin as a severe deficiency, deficiency, insufficiency, and sufficiency. Results Architect showed 9.59% bias from LC-MS/MS with smaller mean. Passing-Bablok regression analysis demonstrated the value of 0.95 slope and had a constant bias with an intercept value of -4.25. Concordance correlation coefficient showed moderate agreement with the value of 0.918 (95% CI 0.878-0.945). Two methods revealed good interrater agreement (kappa = 0.738). While the smallest bias determined in deficiency (9.95%) group, the biggest was in insufficiency (15.15%). Conclusions Architect 25-OH D vitamin immunoassay can be used in routine measurements but had potential misclassification of vitamin D status in insufficient and deficient groups. Although there are recent standardization attempts in 25-OH D measurements, clinical laboratories must be aware of this method.

Abstract
Dietary intake of vitamin D includes vitamin D3 (vitD3), 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25OH-D3), and vitamin D2 (vitD2). However, the bioactivity of the different species has not been scientifically established. The hypothesis in this study was that vitD3, 25OH-D3, and vitD2 have an equal effect on 25-hydroxyvitamin D in serum (vitamin D status). To test our hypothesis, we performed a randomized, crossover study. Twelve young males consumed 10 µg/day vitD3 during a four-week run-in period, followed by 3 × 6 weeks of 10 µg/day vitD3, 10 µg/day 25OH-D3, and 10 µg/day vitD2. The content of vitD3, vitD2, 25OH-D3, and 25-hydroxyvitamin D2 (25OH-D2) in serum was quantified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The hypothesis that the three sources of vitamin D affect vitamin D status equally was rejected. Based on the assumption that 1 µg vitD3/day will show an increase in vitamin D status of 1.96 nmol/L, the results showed that 23 µg vitD2 and 6.8 µg 25OH-D3 was similar to 10 µg vitD3. These results demonstrate that further investigations are necessary to determine how to quantify the total vitamin D activity based on chemical quantification of the individual vitamin D metabolites to replace the total vitamin D activity assessed in biological rat models.

Vitamin D3 and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 in pork and their relationship to vitamin D status in pigs. J Nutr Sci 2016; 5:e3. [PMID: 26793309 PMCID: PMC4709834 DOI: 10.1017/jns.2015.28] [Citation(s) in RCA: 36] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2015] [Revised: 09/18/2015] [Accepted: 10/05/2015] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
The content of vitamin D in pork produced in conventional systems depends on the vitamin D concentration in the pig feed. Both vitamin D3 and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D3) are essential sources of dietary vitamin D; however, bioavailability assessed by serum 25(OH)D3 concentration is reported to be different between the two sources. Furthermore, the relationship between serum 25(OH)D3 level and the tissue content of vitamin D3 and 25(OH)D3 is unknown. The objective of this study was to investigate the potential of increasing the content of vitamin D in different pig tissues by increasing the levels of vitamin D3 and 25(OH)D3 in the pig feed for 49 d before slaughter. Concurrently, the 25(OH)D3 level in serum was investigated as a biomarker to assess the content of vitamin D3 and 25(OH)D3 in pig tissues. Adipose tissue, white and red muscle, the liver and serum were sampled from pigs fed feed containing either vitamin D3 or 25(OH)D3 at 5, 20, 35 or 50 µg/kg feed for 7 weeks before slaughter. The tissue 25(OH)D3 level was significantly higher in the pigs fed 25(OH)D3 compared with those fed vitamin D3, while the tissue vitamin D3 level was higher in the pigs fed vitamin D3 compared with those fed 25(OH)D3. The content of 25(OH)D3 in the different tissues fully correlated with the serum 25(OH)D3 level, whereas the correlation between the tissue content of vitamin D3 and serum 25(OH)D3 was dependent on the source of the ingested vitamin D3.

Abstract
The occurrence of vitamin D deficiency has become an issue of serious concern in the worldwide population. As a result numerous analytical methods have been developed, for a variety of matrices, during the last few years to measure vitamin D analogs and metabolites. This review employs a comprehensive search of all vitamin D methods developed during the last 5 years for all applications, using ISI Web of Science(®), Scifinder(®), Science Direct, Scopus and PubMed. Particular emphasis is given to sample-preparation methods and the different forms of vitamin D measured across different fields of applications such as biological fluids, food and pharmaceutical preparations. This review compares and critically evaluates a wide range of approaches and methods, and hence it will enable readers to access developments across a number of applications and to select or develop the optimal analytical method for vitamin D for their particular application.

Abstract
This study compared vitamin D3 (vitD3) and 25-OH vitamin D3 (25OHD3) status in Greenland sledge dogs (Canis familiaris) given either minke whale (Balaenoptera acuterostrata) blubber high in organohalogen contaminants (OHCs) or clean porcine (Suis scrofa) fat for up to 636 days. A group of six exposed and six control sister bitches (maternal generation) and their three exposed and four control pups, respectively, were daily fed 112g whale blubber (193µg ∑PCB/day) or porcine fat (0.17µg ∑PCB/day). Mean level of ∑PCB in adipose tissue of exposed bitches and their pups was 3106 and 2670ng/g lw, respectively, which was significantly higher than the mean concentration of 53ng/g lw for all controls (p<0.001). The vitamin analyses showed that 25OHD3 in liver of maternal exposed bitches were significantly lower than in controls (p=0.004) while vitD3 was significantly highest in liver of exposed pups (p<0.003). Regarding blood plasma concentrations, exposed F generation pups had significantly higher concentrations of 25OHD3 than controls (p=0.009). Correlation analyses showed that blood 25OHD3 decreased significantly with increased adipose tissue concentrations of ∑PCB in exposed dogs (R(2)=0.64, p=0.005) and a similar trend was found for liver 25OHD3 (R(2)=0.32, p=0.08). The results indicate that the homeostasis and metabolism of vitamin D compounds may respond differently to the dietary composition of fatty acids and OHC exposure. It is unknown if the lower level of 25OHD3 in the liver of exposed dogs would have any negative effects on immunity and reproduction and more focus should be conducted on this compound in Arctic wildlife.

Abstract
Vitamin D is associated with cardiovascular disease and renal function but the mechanisms are as yet unexplained. Microalbuminuria is associated with a higher risk of kidney function loss, cardiovascular disease, and mortality. Parathyroid hormone is a predictor of cardiovascular mortality and negatively correlated with glomerular filtration rate. We investigated the association between vitamin D status and 5-year changes in urine albumin creatinine ratio (UACR) and parathyroid hormone (PTH). A random sample of 6,784 individuals aged 30-60 years from a general population participated in the Inter99 study in 1999-2001. Vitamin D (serum-25-hydroxyvitamin D) was measured at baseline by high-performance liquid chromatography. UACR and PTH were measured at baseline and follow-up. Increased UACR was defined as UACR >4.0 mg/g reflecting the upper quartile at baseline. We included 4,330 individuals who participated at 5-year follow-up. In multivariable linear regression analysis, a 10-nmol/l higher baseline level of vitamin D was associated with a 5-year decrease in UACR by 0.92 % (95 % confidence interval, CI 0.13, 1.71). In multivariable logistic regression analysis, the odds ratio of developing increased UACR during follow-up was 0.96 (95 % CI 0.92, 0.98) per 10 nmol/l higher baseline vitamin D level. We found a significant inverse cross-sectional (p < 0.0001) but no prospective association (p = 0.6) between baseline vitamin D status and parathyroid hormone. We found low vitamin D status to be a predictor of long-term development of increased UACR. It remains to be proven whether vitamin D deficiency is a causal and reversible factor in the development of albuminuria.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES To determine seasonal variation in vitamin D status in healthy Caucasian adolescent girls and elderly community-dwelling women living in Denmark, and to quantify the impact of sun exposure and intake on the seasonal changes in vitamin D status. SUBJECTS/METHODS A 1-year longitudinal observational study of 54 girls (11-13 years) and 52 women (70-75 years). The participants were examined three times (winter-summer-winter). Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (S-25OHD) concentration and vitamin D intake were measured at each visit. Sun exposure was measured during summer. RESULTS S-25OHD concentrations (winter, summer, winter) were median (25, 75 percentiles) 23.4 (16.5, 36.4), 60.3 (42.7, 67.7), 29.5 (22.2, 40.4) and 47.2 (27.3, 61.1), 67.3 (35.1, 79.2), 50.5 (32.7, 65.5)nmol/l for girls and women, respectively. The usual sun habits were determinant (P=0.002) for change in vitamin D status from winter to summer. Vitamin D intake from supplements (P<0.0001) and diet (P=0.002) were determinants for change in vitamin D status from summer to winter. Winter vitamin D status of 50 nmol/l is achievable when vitamin D status the previous summer was ≈ 100 nmol/l. If summer vitamin D status is only ≈ 60 nmol/l, vitamin D status the following winter would be ≈ 28 nmol/l. CONCLUSIONS Low vitamin D status among adolescent girls and elderly women during two consecutive winter seasons, improved vitamin D status during the summer and better vitamin D status in women than in girls was found. The estimations show that a summer S-25OHD concentration ≈ 100 nmol/l is needed to achieve a concentration of ≈ 50 nmol/l the following winter.

Abstract
Background Vitamin D deficiency is associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality in observational studies. The specific causes of death underlying this association lack clarity. We investigated the association between vitamin D status and cause-specific mortality. Methods We included a total of 9,146 individuals from the two population-based studies, Monica10 and Inter99, conducted in 1993–94 and 1999–2001, respectively. Vitamin D status was assessed as serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D. Information on causes of death was obtained from The Danish Register of Causes of Death until 31 December 2009. There were a total of 832 deaths (median follow-up 10.3 years). Results Multivariable Cox regression analyses with age as underlying time axis and vitamin D quartiles showed significant associations between vitamin D status and death caused by diseases of the respiratory system, the digestive system, and endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases with hazard ratios (HRs) 0.26 (ptrend = 0.0042), 0.28 (ptrend = 0.0040), and 0.21 (ptrend = 0.035), respectively, for the fourth vitamin D quartile compared to the first. We found non-significantly lower HRs for death caused by mental and behavioural diseases and diseases of the nervous system, but no association between vitamin D status and death caused by neoplasms or diseases of the circulatory system. Conclusion The associations of vitamin D status and cause-specific mortality suggest that we also look elsewhere (than to cardiovascular disease and cancer) to explain the inverse association between vitamin D status and mortality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES A low vitamin D level has been associated with increased cardiovascular disease risk but possible mechanisms remain unclear. We investigated the association between vitamin D levels and 5-year changes in blood pressure, lipid profile and incidence of the metabolic syndrome, hypertension and hypercholesterolemia. METHODS A random sample of 6,784 individuals aged 30-60 years from a general population was investigated in the Inter99 study in 1999-2001. Vitamin D (serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D) was measured at baseline by high-performance liquid chromatography, and 4,330 individuals participated at the 5-year follow-up and were included in the present study. RESULTS The median baseline vitamin D concentration was 48.0 nmol/l. In multivariable linear regression analyses, a 10 nmol/l higher baseline level of vitamin D was associated with a decrease in triglycerides and very low density lipoprotein cholesterol by 0.52 (p = 0.03) and 0.66% (p = 0.005), respectively. In multivariable logistic regression analyses, the odds ratios per 10 nmol/l higher baseline vitamin D level were 0.95 (p < 0.05) and 0.94 (p = 0.01) for the development of the metabolic syndrome and hypercholesterolemia, respectively. There was no association between vitamin D and blood pressure. CONCLUSIONS An optimal vitamin D status may influence cardiovascular health by changing the lipid profile in a favorable direction and decreasing the incidence of the metabolic syndrome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Danish legislation regarding food fortification has been very restrictive and vitamin D deficiency is thought to be common in Denmark due to inadequate dietary intakes and the fact that in Denmark (latitude 56°N) vitamin D is only synthesized in the skin after exposure to solar radiation during summertime (April-September). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the vitamin D status of a general adult population in Denmark and, in addition, associations between vitamin D status and distinct lifestyle factors were studied. METHODS A random sample of 6784 persons from a general population aged 30-60 years participated in a health examination in 1999-2001. Serum samples from all participants were stored and levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) were measured by HPLC in 2009. The method was compared to another HPLC method. Information on dietary intake of vitamin D and other lifestyle factors were obtained by questionnaires. A total of 6146 persons defined as ethnic Danes and with successful measurements of 25(OH)D were included in the analyses. RESULTS The overall prevalence of vitamin D deficiency (25(OH)D<25 nmol/l) and insufficiency (25(OH)D<50 nmol/l) were 13.8% and 52.2%, respectively. A marked seasonal fluctuation was seen in serum levels of 25(OH)D - median values of 25(OH)D were lowest in February and highest in August. In multiple logistic regression models (n=5506), low vitamin D status was significantly associated with obesity (BMI≥30), daily smoking and a sedentary lifestyle. However, measurements of 25(OH)D were not associated with the estimated dietary intake of vitamin D. Comparison of two HPLC methods demonstrated considerable differences in accuracy. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that poor vitamin D status is common among adults in a Northern European country without food fortification with vitamin D. Methodological issues are, however, of great importance when using cut-off values to define poor vitamin D status. In addition, we demonstrated that low serum levels of 25(OH)D were associated with several lifestyle factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Measurement of 25-hydroxyvitamin D, (25D) is central in the investigation of pathologies of bone and mineral ion metabolism and in determining a patient's vitamin D status. More recently much research interest has lead to investigating the role it can play in decreasing the risk of many chronic illnesses, including common cancers, autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases, and cardiovascular disease. Knowledge of the biological variation of an analyte forms an essential part of evaluating a new analyte enabling the objective assessment of the changes in serial results, the utility of reference intervals as well as establishing laboratory quality specifications. METHODS This study determined the biological variation of 25D in 20 healthy individuals that was calculated according to the familiar methods outlined by Fraser and Harris. RESULTS The within-subject variation was 12.1% and the between subject variation was 40.3%. The critical difference for sequential values significant at P<0.05 was calculated as 38.4%. The within-subject variation forms a relatively small part of the reference interval shown by the low index of individuality of 0.3. Objective analytical quality goals have also been established which have shown achievable minimum performance for imprecision of ∼6%. The desirable analytical bias goal was ∼10%. CONCLUSION This study has objectively shown that the analytical precision of current instruments is being achieved contrary to the known problems surrounding the analytical bias for 25D assays. The limitations of using reference intervals for 25D, both in diagnoses and monitoring are shown.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Knowledge gaps have contributed to considerable variation (between 0 and 15 μg/d) in international dietary recommendations for vitamin D in adolescents. OBJECTIVE We aimed to establish the distribution of dietary vitamin D required to maintain serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations above several proposed cutoffs (25, 37.5, 40, and 50 nmol/L) during wintertime in adolescent white girls. DESIGN Data (baseline and 6 mo) from 2 randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, 12-mo intervention studies in Danish (55°N) and Finnish (60°N) girls (n = 144; mean age: 11.3 y; mean vitamin D intake: 3.7 μg/d) at vitamin D(3) supplementation amounts of 0, 5, and 10 μg/d were used. Serum 25(OH)D was measured with an HPLC assay in a centralized laboratory. RESULTS Clear dose-related increments (P < 0.0001) in serum 25(OH)D with increasing supplemental vitamin D(3) were observed. The slope of the relation between vitamin D intake and serum 25(OH)D at the end of winter was 2.43 nmol ⋅ L(-1) ⋅ μg intake(-1), and no difference in the slopes between Finnish and Danish girls was observed. The vitamin D intakes that maintained serum 25(OH)D concentrations at >25, >37.5, and >50 nmol/L in 97.5% of the sample were 8.3, 13.5, and 18.6 μg/d, respectively, whereas an intake of 6.3 μg/d maintained a serum 25(OH)D concentration >40 nmol/L in 50% of the sample. CONCLUSION The vitamin D intakes required to ensure that adequate vitamin D status [defined variably as serum 25(OH)D >25 and >50 nmol/L] is maintained during winter in the vast majority (>97.5%) of adolescent girls (mean age: 11.3 y) at northern latitudes (>55°N) are 8.3 and 18.6 μg/d, respectively. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT00267540.

Abstract
In this review we describe procedures, performance characteristics and limitations of methods available for the measurement of 25-hydroxyvitamin (25OHD) since the year 2000. The two main types of methods are competitive immunoassay and those based on chromatographic separation followed by non-immunological direct detection (HPLC, LC-MS/MS). Lack of a reference standard for 25OHD has, until recently, been a major issue resulting in poor between-method comparability. Fortunately this should soon improve due to the recent introduction of a standard reference material in human serum (SRM 972) from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). For immunoassay, specificity can be an issue especially in relation to the proportion of 25OHD2 that is quantified whereas HPLC and LC-MS/MS methods are able to measure the two major vitamin D metabolites 25OHD2 and 25OHD3 independently. HPLC and LC-MS/MS require more expensive equipment and expert staff but this can be offset against lower reagent costs. Increasingly procedures are being developed to semi-automate or automate HPLC and LC-MS/MS but run times remain considerably longer than for immunoassays especially if performed on automated platforms. For most HPLC and LC-MS/MS methods extraction and procedural losses are corrected for by the inclusion of an internal standard which, in part, may account for higher results compared to immunoassay. In general precision of immunoassay, HPLC and LC-MS/MS are comparable and all have the required sensitivity to identify severe vitamin D deficiency. Looking to the future it is hoped that the imminent introduction of a standard reference method (or methods) for 25OHD will further accelerate improvements in between method comparability.

Bone 2010; 46:432-9. [PMID: 19735754 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2009.08.056] [Citation(s) in RCA: 48] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2009] [Revised: 08/27/2009] [Accepted: 08/27/2009] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION A high peak bone mass may be essential for reducing the risk of osteoporosis later in life and a sufficient vitamin D level during puberty may be necessary for optimal bone accretion and obtaining a high peak bone mass. Dietary intake and synthesis during winter of vitamin D might be limited but the effect of vitamin D supplementation in adolescence on bone mass is not well established. OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of supplementation with 5 and 10 microg/day vitamin D(3) for 12 months in 11- to 12-year-old girls on bone mass and bone turnover as well as the possible influence of VDR and ER genotype on the effect of the supplementation. METHODS The girls (n=221) were randomized to receive either 5 microg or 10 microg vitamin D(3) supplementation per day or placebo for 12 months. Whole body and lumbar spine bone mass measured by DXA and pubertal status were determined at baseline and after 12 months whereas physical activity and dietary intake of calcium and vitamin D were assessed at baseline. Serum (S) 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD), S-osteocalcin, S-parathyroid hormone, S-calcium, S-inorganic phosphate, urinary (U) pyridinoline (Pyr) and deoxpyridinoline (Dpyr) were measured at baseline and after 6 and 12 months. RESULTS The S-25OHD concentration increased (p<0.001) relative to the baseline values in the groups receiving either 5 microg/day (mean+/-SD; 11.0+/-10.3 nmol/l, baseline 41.9+/-17.6 nmol/l) or 10 microg/day (13.3+/-11.8 nmol/l, baseline 44.4+/-16.6 nmol/l) vitamin D(3) for 12 months compared to placebo (-3.1+/-9.8 nmol/l, baseline 43.4+/-17.1 nmol/l). There was no effect of vitamin D-supplementation on biomarkers for bone turnover or on whole body or spine bone mineral augmentation. However, vitamin D supplementation increased whole body bone mineral density (BMD) (p=0.007) and bone mineral content (BMC) (p=0.048) in the FF VDR genotype but not in the Ff or ff VDR genotypes. CONCLUSION Supplementation with vitamin D (5 or 10 microg/day) over 12 months increased the S-25OHD concentration but there was no effect on indices of bone health in the entire group of girls. However, there was an effect on BMD for a subgroup with the FF VDR genotype indicating an influence of genotype.
