Resumo

Background: End-stage renal disease results in B cell lymphopenia and low levels of vitamin D. Since the link between vitamin D deficiency and B lymphocytes dysfunction are not clear in patients with end-stage renal disease, we suggest that vitamin D adequacy and factors related to the homeostasis of these cells should be investigated. B lymphocytes homeostasis is a process mainly regulated signals of grown and death as interleukin (IL)-7, B cell-activating factor (BAFF)/BAFF-receptor and CD95 expression. Objective: As vitamin D serum levels were reduced in patients with end stage renal disease and it is associated with human B homeostasis, we evaluated the effect of cholecalciferol supplementation on dialysis. Design: Randomized, double blind clinical trial in dialysis patients with 250H Vitamin D deficiency for a period of 12 weeks. Main Outcome Measure: In a pilot study, we investigated the effect of cholecalciferol supplementation (100,000 UI once per week or placebo. In vitro, peripheral blood mononuclear cells isolated by Ficoll-Hypaque centrifugation from 12 healthy volunteers were incubated with healthy or uremic serum in the presence or absence of 25 (OH)DC with 5% CO. Results: There was an increase in the serum 25(OH)D level in the cholecalciferol group. No differences were found in BAFF and IL7 levels and CD95 and BAFF-R expression in B lymphocytes from patients on dialysis after cholecalciferol supplementation. Uremic serum induced an increase in the IL-7, BAFF, BAFF-R and CD95 expression compared with the control. However, we observed no effect of incubation of 25(OH)D3 and 1,25(OH)2D3 on the expression of IL-7, BAFF, BAFF-R and CD95 when incubated in the presence of normal or uremic serum. Conclusion: Our results suggest that vitamin D is not involved in mechanisms of regulation of differentiation and survival in B lymphocytes. In conclusion, further studies are needed to explore the effects of vitamin D on B lymphocytes to better evaluate the possible impact of vitamin D on humoral response in the CKD population.
