Association of Vitamin D Deficiency and Mood Disorders: A Systematic Review

This review focusses on vitamin D receptors, VDR gene mutations, and pathophysiology causing vitamin D deficiency disorders, which are found to have a higher incidence of various mood disorders.

Unravelling of hidden secrets: The role of vitamin D in skin aging

These findings support the concept that UV-radiation exerts both skin aging -promoting and -inhibiting effects, the latter via induction of cutaneous vitamin D synthesis.

D VITAMIN, COGNITION AND DEMENTIAS D VITAMIN, KOGNICIJA I DEMENCIJE

Neuropsychological studies showed that the main domain of vitamin D brain function is on executive functions, and Vitamin D in the form of calcitriol, 1,25(OH)2D3, is the best available drug form.

A Review on the Potential Role of Vitamin D and Mineral Metabolism on Chronic Fatigue Illnesses

It is proposed that chronic fatiguing illnesses might be result from mineral deregulations that are barely detected by routine laboratory workups because of compensatory changes in bone mineral stores.

VITAMIN D ACROSS THE LIFE SPAN1

Vitamin D deficiency can lead to early and late negative consequences in bone growth, immune system, and cognition, and can be secondary to some individual characteristics due to the lack of sun exposure.

The Interrelated Multifactorial Actions of Cortisol and Klotho: Potential Implications in the Pathogenesis of Parkinson’s Disease

Together they impact powerful and divergent mechanisms that may go on to influence PD-related symptoms and better understanding of these hormones in PD would facilitate the design of effective interventions that can simultaneously impact the multiple systems involved in the pathogenesis of PD.

Vitamin D, aging, and cancer.

The results suggest that calcidiol is mainly responsible for differentiation homeostasis, whereas calcitriol might be more involved in calcium homeOSTasis, therefore, an imbalance of calcidiola rather than calcitriols is a risk factor for cancer and chronic diseases.

Vitamin D-deficient mice on low-calcium diets developed the most severe IBD, and 1,25(OH)2D3 treatment of mice onLow-cal calcium diets improved IBD symptoms, however, the best results for IBD were observed when the calcium concentration was high and 1-25( OH) 2D3 was administered.

It is concluded that 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 is not the sole biologically active metabolite of vitamin D in man and that the subsequent rise in serum phosphate concentrations along with the direct actions of 1 alpha-25-hydroxyvitamin D3, 24,25 (OH) 2D3, and possibly 25(OH-D3 on bone cells all participate in the restoration of normal bone formation and bone mineralization in vitamin D-deficient man.
