Vitamin D: Harmless Nutritional Supplement or Serious Medication?

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Excessive vitamin D supplementation may result in significant clinical complications. This case of a 77‐year‐old male demonstrates how unsupervised high doses led to severe hypercalcemia, acute kidney injury, and gastrointestinal bleeding. It underscores the importance of precise dosing, regular monitoring, and medical supervision of vitamin D

Field Evidence of Endogenous Vitamin D Synthesis in Atlantic Salmon Induced by Natural Sunlight

Aquaculture Nutrition, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Fish are believed not to synthesize vitamin D through UV exposure but to meet their requirements from dietary sources. The high vitamin D levels found in many fish species are thought to originate from UV‐induced synthesis in plankton, with vitamin D subsequently accumulating through the aquatic food chain.

Type 1 Diabetes Autoimmunity: To What Extent Vitamin D is Beneficial

Biochemistry Research International, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Autoimmune disorders, characterized by an overactive immune system attacking healthy tissues, are a significant global health concern. A common thread among these disorders is vitamin D deficiency. While the exact relationship between vitamin D and autoimmunity remains a hot research arena, plenty of reports have suggested a strong association between ...

Update of the list of qualified presumption of safety (QPS) recommended microbiological agents intentionally added to food or feed as notified to EFSA 21: Suitability of taxonomic units notified to EFSA until September 2024

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract The qualified presumption of safety (QPS) process was developed to provide a safety assessment approach for microorganisms intended for use in food or feed chains. In the period covered by this Statement, no new information was found that would change the status of previously recommended QPS taxonomic units (TUs).

Vitamin D as a predictor of clinical response among patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT)

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 975-981, August 2024.
In our meta‐analysis, patients with higher 25‐OH vitamin D levels before CRT implantation had better CRT response rates, while vitamin D insufficiency was linked to a higher risk of nonresponse. These findings underscore the importance of monitoring and managing vitamin D levels in patient with CRT.

Binding of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol in tissues.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1977
Evidence is presented that the 5.8 S 25-hydroxycholecalciferol-binding protein found in the cytosols of all nucleated rat tissues is formed from two macromolecular substances: a heat-stable 4.1 S 25-hydroxycholecalciferol-binding protein which behaves identically with the serum 25-hydroxycholecalciferol-binding protein, and a cytosolic heat-labile ...
