Dietary Vitamin D Increases Percentages and Function of Regulatory T Cells in the Skin-Draining Lymph Nodes and Suppresses Dermal InflammationDietary vitamin D3 increased the suppressive activity of regulatory T cells in the skin-draining lymph nodes, which are poised to suppress dermal inflammation
Research
Can skin exposure to sunlight prevent liver inflammation?Here we discuss how skin exposure to sunlight may suppress liver inflammation and the severity of NAFLD.
Research
UV Irradiation of Skin Regulates a Murine Model of Multiple Sclerosis.The prevalence of multiple sclerosis follows a latitude gradient, with increased disease at higher latitudes.
Research
Investigating the roles of regulatory T cells, mast cells and interleukin-9 in the control of skin inflammat roles of regulatory T cells, mast cells and interleukin-9 in the control of skin inflammation by vitamin D. Arch Dermatol Res. 2018;310(3):221-30.We investigated the ability of topical 1,25(OH)2D to suppress contact dermatitis through an IL9 dependent process, examining mast cells and IL9 secreting cells.
Research
Topical 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 subverts the priming ability of draining lymph node dendritic cellsThe active form of vitamin D, 1,25-hydroxyvitamin D(3) [1,25(OH)(2)D(3)] is produced in skin following exposure to sunlight

Exposure to Solar UVR Suppresses Cell-Mediated Immunization Responses in Humans: The Australian Ultraviolet Radiation and Immunity StudyHigher UVR exposure at antigen sensitization was associated with a reduced delayed-type hypersensitivity response and altered T helper type 17 kinetics
Research
Altered immunity and dendritic cell activity in the periphery of mice after long-term engraftment with bone marrow from ultraviolet-irradiated miceTo investigate the immune capabilities of peripheral tissue DCs generated in vivo from the BM of UV-irradiated mice, chimeric mice were established.
Research
Maternal vitamin D levels during pregnancy and offspring eating disorder risk in adolescenceThis is the first study to link low gestational vitamin D to increased eating disorder risk in female offspring of Caucasian mothers.

1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 enhances the ability of transferred CD4+ CD25+ cells to modulate T helper type 2-driven asthmatic responsesThe severity of allergic diseases may be modified by vitamin D. However, the immune pathways modulated by the active form of vitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D.
