Serum 25(OH)D and incident type 2 diabetes: a cohort study

Abstract: BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Mild to moderate vitamin D insufficiency has been proposed as a risk factor for several common chronic diseases including type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to examine the association between serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25(OH)D) and incident diabetes. SUBJECTS/METHODS: The MONICA10 cohort consists of 2656 participants (men and women aged 41-71 years) who participated in a 10-year follow-up examination during 1993-1994 as part of the MONICA 1 population survey. A total of 2571 participants… Show more

“…Apart from its key role in growth and maintenance of the skeleton, vitamin D affects a great number of genes including genes involved in angiogenesis and cellular proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis [2]. Circulating vitamin D may play a role in all-cause mortality and diseases like cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetes [2,5,[8][9][10][11][12], chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [13], cancer [14], and autoimmune disease [6].…”

“…Moreover, vitamin D can prevent the destruction of pancreatic betacells and reduce the incidence of diabetes mellitus, possibly secondary to inhibition of proinflammatory cytokines [8][9][10]. Higher concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines (such as IL-6, TNF-α) and hs-CRP have been noted especially in subjects with low concentrations of vitamin D [11][12][13].…”

“…The vitamin D receptor is found in most cells of the body and many tissues can convert vitamin D to its active form (1). Vitamin D insufficiency and deficiency are common worldwide and are associated with a number of common diseases, such as cardiovascular risk factors (e.g., hyperlipidemia and albuminuria), diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and mortality (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7).…”
