ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To explore the impact of vitamin D deficiency (VD-) in the pathogenesis of metabolic syndrome (MetS). MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Models of (VD-) and (MetS) were induced in male Wister rats by dividing into four groups, group-I for the development of (VD-) by intraperitoneal injection of paricalcitol for 3 weeks, group II for (MetS) model by adding 10% fructose to their drinking water for 8 weeks, the group III for induction of combined (VD- + MetS) and group-IV as a control. Ultimately, the parameters of (VD-) and (MetS) were assessed at zero time and after 8 weeks.RESULTS:
Both (VD-) and (MetS) groups alone displayed a remarkable enhancement of blood pressure, glucose and insulin levels, triglycerides, cholesterol, and low-density lipoproteins with a reduction of high-density lipoproteins. Additionally, all distinguishing features of obesity were substantially increased. Nevertheless, the combined group (VD-+MetS) demonstrated an expeditious and substantial increase in all the aforesaid parameters compared to the (VD-) and (MetS) groups alone.CONCLUSIONS:
The hallmark of this study, reinforces a new frontier of awareness of the deleterious effect of (VD-) on each component of (MetS). Eventually, supplementation of vitamin D can circumvent the elements of (MetS) and needs further validation by determination of (VD-) molecular pathway on the parameters of (MetS).
