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

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).

Crosstalk between Vitamin D Metabolism, VDR Signalling, and Innate Immunity
The primary function of vitamin D is to regulate calcium homeostasis, which is essential for bone formation and resorption. Although diet is a source of vitamin D, most foods are naturally lacking vitamin D.

Prevalence and Determinants of Suboptimal Vitamin D Levels in a Multiethnic Asian Population
This population-based cross-sectional study examined the prevalence and risk factors of suboptimal vitamin D levels (assessed using circulating 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (25(OH)D)) in a multi-ethnic sample of Asian adults. Plasma 25(OH)D concentration of

Serum vitamin D level – the effect on the clinical course of psoriasis
Introduction Psoriasis is a hyperproliferative disorder of the skin, and vitamin D analogs are widely used in its treatment. It is evident that ultraviolet radiation enables vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) formation in the epidermis, and this product is ...
