- W2899646435 abstract "Vitamin D plays a primary role in regulation of bone metabolism and calcium homeostasis. Interestingly, emerging evidence suggests protective effects of vitamin D against liver fibrogenesis. However, the precise mechanisms of this action remain mysterious. Herein, this review aimed to summarize the role of vitamin D in liver fibrosis pathology and to update the current comprehensive knowledge regarding the clinical utility of vitamin D-based treatment in liver fibrosis. In regard to its effect on liver fibrosis, vitamin D possesses an anti-fibrotic effect on hepatic stellate cells via vitamin D receptor-mediated specific signal transduction pathways, which in turn inhibit expression of pro-fibrogenic genes. Furthermore, several studies demonstrated a significant association between low vitamin D levels and an increased risk of liver fibrosis. Additionally, high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency was noted in patients with liver fibrosis, suggesting the use of vitamin D status as a biochemical marker reflecting the progression of liver fibrosis. It is therefore reasonable to postulate that vitamin D supplementation being a cost effective and relative simple procedure may benefit to liver fibrosis. Nevertheless, further research is needed to fully elucidate its regulatory role in inhibiting liver fibrogenesis and to estimate the safety and efficiency of vitamin D supplementation as a relatively inexpensive treatment for liver fibrosis in patients with chronic liver diseases." @default.
