Effect of vitamin D on flow-induced dilation (FID) and acetylcholine-induced dilation (AChID) in adipose tissue resistance arterioles collected on the day of surgery (n = 15 subjects). FID measurements in visceral adipose tissue (VAT) arterioles (A) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) arterioles (C) corresponding to increasing intraluminal pressure gradients of 10–100 cm H2O. AchID measurements in VAT arterioles (B) and SAT arterioles (D) corresponding to increasing concentrations of acetylcholine (Ach) (10−9 to 10−4 M). All measurements are presented as means ± standard error (SE); † p < 0.05 comparing vitamin D with baseline.
