Abstract
Context:Vitamin D accumulates in adipose tissue (AT), and vitamin D deficiency is frequent in obesity. Objective: We hypothesize that trafficking of vitamin D is altered in dysfunctional AT. Design, Patients, Settings: Fifty-four normal-weight and 67 obese males were recruited in a prospective study and randomly assigned to supplementation with 50 µg/wk 25-hydroxyvitamin-D3 or 150 µg/wk vitamin D3 for 1 year, raising dosage by 50% if vitamin D sufficiency [serum 25-hydroxyvitamin-D3 >50 nmol/L], was not achieved at 6 months; 97 subjects completed the study. Methods:Vitamin D3 and 25-hydroxyvitamin-D3 were quantified by HPLC-MS in control and insulin-resistant (IR) 3T3-L1 cells and subcutaneous AT (SAT) from lean and obese subjects, incubated with or without adrenaline; expression of 25-hydroxylase (Cyp27a1), 1α-hydroxylase (Cyp27b1), and vitamin D receptor (Vdr) was analyzed by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Results: In IR adipocytes, uptake of D3 and 25-hydroxyvitamin-D3 was higher, but, after adrenaline stimulation, the decrement in D3 and 25-hydroxyvitamin-D3 was stronger in control cells, which also showed increased expression of Cyp27a1 and Cyp27b1 and higher levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin-D3. In SAT from obese subjects, adrenaline-induced release of D3 and 25-hydroxyvitamin-D3 was blunted; in both IR cells and obese SAT, protein expression of β2-adrenergic receptor was reduced. Supplementation with 25-hydroxyvitamin-D3 was more effective in achieving vitamin D sufficiency in obese, but not in normal weight subjects. Conclusion: Dysfunctional AT shows a reduced catecholamine-induced release of D3 and 25-hydroxyvitamin-D3 and altered activity of vitamin D-metabolizing enzymes; for these reasons supplementation with 25-hydroxyvitamin-D3 is more effective in obese individuals.
