Table 2. Effects of in vitro 1,25(OH)2D treatment on inflammatory responses in monocytes/macrophages.

Cell type Treatment dose (duration) Effects Reference
Human monocyte (PBMC) 0.01–100 nM (12, 24, 48, 72 hours) • Reduced TLR2, TLR4 protein and mRNA Sadeghi et al.74
• Inhibited NF-κB/RelA translocation
PBMC 100 nM (24, 48, 72 hours) • Down-regulated TLR2, TLR4, and TLR9 expression Dickie et al.75
• Decreased IL-6 production
PBMC 0.1–10 nM (24 hours) • Decreased IL-6 and TNF-α production Zhang et al.76
• Increased MKP-1
Murine macrophage cells (P388D1) 100 nM (16 hours preincubation) • Decreased NF-κB-p65 protein levels in the nucleus Cohen-Lahav et al.77
• Increased NF-κB-p65 protein levels in the cytosol
• Increased IκBα protein levels in cytosol
Human monocytic THP-1 cells 10 nM (24 hours) • Decreased IL1β, IL-6, and TNF-α levels Villaggio et al.78
Mouse stromal vascular cell 10 nM (24 hours) • Decreased IL-6 and MCP-1 levels Park et al.79
• Increased Dusp1 and IkBa expression
PBMC 48 hours after 1,25(OH)2D3 • Decreased proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1α, IL-1β, and IL-6) production Neve et al.80
