Abstract

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin helps to retain calcium and phosphorus but also has shown to affect immune regulation and homeostasis. In humans, vitamin D3 and vitamin D2 and their metabolite has intensively studied in both innate and adaptive immune system that they are important to regulate overwhelmed inflammation. The vitamin D receptor is a nuclear hormone receptor which regulate various downstream target gene expressions as a transcription factor related to metabolism, immune regulation, etc. Vitamin D deficiency is a high-risk factor for inflammatory diseases like autoimmune disease and allergy. In addition, reduced vitamin D seem to correlate with susceptibility to the virus infection such as HIV and COVID-19. In this review, we will summarize up-to-date vitamin D's role in various immune cells, immune regulatory functions during autoimmune, allergic, and infectious diseases. We will also discuss about vitamin D supplement effects in human trial studies for COVID-19.

비타민D3는 칼슘 대사를 조절하며 뼈의 건강을 담당하는 중요한 호르몬이지만 다양한 면역세포에 작용하여 면역반응을 조절할 수 있다는 것이 알려지면서 자가면역질환, 알레르기질환, 감염 등 여러 질병과의 상관관계에 대한 관심이 증가되었다. 비타민D3의 활성 형태인 1,25(OH)2D3는 면역세포에 의해 전환될 수 있으며 핵-호르몬 수용체인 VDR과 결합하여 세포 내 다양한 유전자 발현을 조절함으로써, 세포의 형질과 기능을 바꿀 수 있다. 특히, 최근 다양한 연구를 통해 과도한 면역 반응을 조절하는 Treg 세포의 분화를 증가시키고 그 기능을 향상시키는 기전을 통해 염증성 사이토카인을 감소시키며, 외부 병원균을 제거할 수 있는 AMP의 생산을 유도함으로써 자가면역질환, 알레르기, 감염성 질환 등 다양한 질환에 긍정적 역할을 할 수 있음이 확인되었다. 특히, 최근 COVID-19 에 의한 글로벌 팬데믹을 경험하면서, 중증 질환 및 사망에 이르는 환자들과 비타민D의 상관관계 연구, 다양한 나라들에서 시행된 비타민D 치료의 임상결과들을 통해, 비타민D 보충 기반의 면역조절의 전략이 유리할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 전세계 현대인들의 비타민D 결핍은 최근 50년 간 지속적으로 증가하고 있으며, 자외선 노출로 합성할 수 있는 비타민D의 양이 충분하지 않은 부분을 식품 또는 보충제의 형태로 섭취하는 것이 여러 자가면역질환과 알레르기, 감염성 질병을 예방하는데 도움이 될 것이다.
