N.B. P-values with bolded font designate those <0.05;
P value within group;
P value between standard vs. moderate groups;
P value between standard vs. high groups;
P value between standard vs. moderate+high groups;
Standard dose = 18,000 IU given monthly for 12 months (equivalent to 600 IU/daily);
Moderate dose = 60,000 IU given monthly for 12 months (equivalent to 2,000 IU/daily);
High dose = 120,000 IU given monthly for 12 months (equivalent to 4,000 IU/daily).
Data represent the % of that cell type expressing the given phenotype;
1 subject with no data due to cell viability issues;
