Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D and calcium levels
| Vitamin D deficient | Control | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Air-exposed | CS-exposed | Air-exposed | CS-exposed | |
| 25OHD (ng/ml) | 19.76 ± 1.87a | 17.37 ± 2.68b | 76.30 ± 3.15 | 86.76 ± 4.03 |
| Calcium (mg/dl) | 9.71 ± 0.62 | 10.97 ± 0.47 | 10.24 ± 0.26 | 9.09 ± 1.21 |
At the age of 8 weeks, C57Bl/6J vitamin D deficient and control mice were exposed to CS or ambient air for a period of 6 or 12 weeks. Data show results after 12 weeks and are represented as mean ± SEM.a p < 0.0001 vs air-exposed control;b p < 0.0001 vs CS-exposed control
