Plasma 25-Hydroxyvitamin D and Regulation of the Renin-Angiotensin System in Humans
Open accessAbstract
Vitamin D regulates the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in experimental animals, but corresponding human data are limited. We examined the relation between plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D and elements of the RAS in 184 normotensive individuals in high sodium balance; these included circulating levels of plasma renin activity and angiotensin II (Ang II) and the renal plasma flow response to infused Ang II, which is an indirect measure of the intrinsic RAS activity in the kidney. Compared with individuals with sufficient 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels (≥30.0 ng/mL), those with insufficiency (15.0 to 29.9 ng/mL) and deficiency (<15.0 ng/mL) had higher circulating Ang II levels ( P for trend=0.03). Moreover, those with vitamin D deficiency had significantly blunted renal plasma flow responses to infused Ang II (mean decrease of 115 mL/min per 1.73 m 2 in renal plasma flow versus 145 mL/min per 1.73 m 2 among those with sufficient vitamin D levels; P for trend=0.009). Although plasma renin activity was higher among individuals with insufficient levels of vitamin D, the result was not statistically significant. These data suggest that low plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels may result in upregulation of the RAS in otherwise healthy humans.

In the citing paper
“We previously showed that vitamin D deficiency blunts tissue-responsiveness to exogenous AngII by inducing a state of high tissue-RAAS activity4,6,31; this blunted sensitivity to AngII could be corrected by lowering the tissue-RAAS with an ACE inhibitor or vitamin D3 therapy4,33.”

In the citing paper
“When integrated with the findings from Study 1 (Figure 1a–c), an incremental relationship between the RAAS and PTH was observed, which was modulated by AngII dose, as well as by ACE inhibition and vitamin D status (both of which sensitize the tissue responsiveness to AngII infusion)4,6,31–33.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
