- Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D, diabetes, and ethnicity in the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. (2004, background): “Initial findings from animal studies showed that insulin released from the isolated perfused pancreas of the rat is lower in vitamin D–deficient animals than control animals (1), while pancreatic receptors for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in -cells have been identified in a number of species (2).”
- From space to Earth: advances in human physiology from 20 years of bed rest studies (1986–2006) (2007, background): “…might not work as a countermeasure for bone loss during bed rest (see chapter on bone), in the recent literature effects on muscle function, diabetes (Zittermann 2003; Grant and Holick 2005), the immunological and the cardiovascular system are discussed (Zittermann et al. 2004, 2005).”
- Vitamin D and Immune Function (2013, background): “One important factor may be the availability of sufficient vitamin D levels [97,98] as various epidemiological studies suggest associations between vitamin D deficiency and a higher incidence of autoimmune diseases, such as T1D, MS, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and i”
- Baseline Serum 25-Hydroxy Vitamin D Is Predictive of Future Glycemic Status and Insulin Resistance (2008, background): “While the exact mechanisms that underlie the multiple effects of vitamin D on different tissues are not currently understood, one unifying factor is the expression of vitamin D receptors (VDRs) in 30 tissues, including pancreatic islet cells (12).”
