简要总结
This study evaluates the relationship between vitamin-D status and severity of sarcoidosis, and the effects of vitamin-D repletion in vitamin-D insufficient patients with sarcoidosis. Half the patients with sarcoidosis who are vitamin-D insufficient will receive standard vitamin-D supplementation via standard regimen while the other half will receive a placebo. Sarcoidosis patients who are vitamin-D sufficient will also act as controls.
详细描述
Sarcoidosis is a multi-system inflammatory disease characterized by T-helper lymphocyte hyperactivity leading to granulomatous inflammation. The granuloma cells autonomously convert 25-hydroxy-vitamin-D (25OHD) to the active metabolite 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin-D (1,25OH2D) independent of normal feedback control but dependent on substrate (25OHD) concentration.
Circulating 1,25OH2D exerts both anti-inflammatory and mineral metabolic actions. Deficiency of 25OHD limits substrate-dependent 1,25OH2D synthesis, diminishes anti-antigenic innate immunity and augments pro-inflammatory adaptive immunity. Thus, low vitamin-D stores could aggravate sarcoid inflammation while repletion of vitamin-D stores could mitigate inflammation in sarcoidosis.

盲法说明
Groups separated by a) use / non-use of oral prednisone, and b) status of serum 25-hydroxy-vitamin-D level (sufficient or insufficient). Those who are vitamin-D insufficient will be randomized to receive either vitamin D2 or placebo.
