In this study, using a mouse model, we determined whether vitamin D deficiency in utero and during early life modulated the severity of asthma.

New research links poor language to lack of Vitamin D in womb.

Exposure of skin to UV radiation (UVR) prior to allergen exposure can inhibit inflammatory airways disease in mice by reducing effector CD4+ T cells in both...

The objective was to examine whether there were causal links between vitamin D status, parathyroid hormone, insulin resistance.

Obesity often coexists with low calcium intake and vitamin D insufficiency.

Vitamin D deficiency (serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentration <50 nmol/l) is recognised as a public health problem globally. The present study details the prevalence and predictors of vitamin D deficiency in a nationally representative sample (n 3250) of Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander adults aged ≥18 years. We used data from the 2012-2013 Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Survey (AATSIHS). Serum 25(OH)D concentrations were measured by liquid chromatography-tandem MS.

Early infancy oral vitamin D supplementation does not appear to reduce the development of early childhood allergic disease

When combined with physical activity, low-dose UVR may more effectively limit adiposity and modulate metabolic and immune pathways in iBAT

To our knowledge, this is the first study to show that the reported 25(OH)D concentration may be influenced by both age and assay type

Both human and murine studies report that multiple exposures to sub-erythemal UV radiation can increase the diversity of the gut microbiome
