摘要:In order to investigate mineral and vitamin D metabolism in obese rats with hyperinsulinemia, plasma calcium and vitamin D meta-bolites were measured in Zucker fa / fa rats. Body weight, plasma insulin, and calcium in fa / fa rats were significantly increased compared to their lean littermates ( p <0.01). However, no significant difference in plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), 24, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D, 1, 25-dihy-droxyvitamin D (1, 25(OH)2D) or the ratio of 1, 25(OH)2D to 25(OH)D was observed between fa/fa rats and their lean littermates. The hypercal-cemia in the rats with hyperinsulinemia, therefore, might be caused by other calcium-regulating hormones or some factors other than 1, 25-(OH)2D. In addition, the hyperinsulinemia associated with obesity may not produce the accelerated conversion from 25(OH)D into 1, 25(OH)2D.
