A 16-Week Randomized Clinical Trial of 2000 International Units Daily Vitamin D3 Supplementation in Black Youth: 25-Hydroxyvitamin D, Adiposity, and Arterial Stiffness
Yanbin Dong,Inger Stallmann-Jorgensen,Norman K. Pollock,Ryan A. Harris,Daniel Keeton,Ying Huang,Ke Li,Reda Bassali,De Huang Guo,Jeffrey Thomas,Gary L. Pierce,Jennifer R. White,Michael F. Holick,Haidong Zhu +13 more
TL;DR: Daily 2000 IU vitamin D supplementation may be effective in optimizing vitamin D status and counteracting the progression of aortic stiffness in black youth and Plasma 25(OH)D concentrations in response to the 2000 IU/d supplementation are negatively modulated by adiposity.
Interleukin-6 stimulates epithelial sodium channels in mouse cortical collecting duct cells
Ke Li,Dehuang Guo,Haidong Zhu,Kathleen S. Hering-Smith,L. Lee Hamm,Jingping Ouyang,Yanbin Dong +6 more
TL;DR: A novel function ofIL-6 is identified, namely, IL-6 may activate ENaC, which likely contributes to impaired pressure natriuresis and therefore, renal inflammation mediated by IL- 6 probably contributes to impairment of blood pressure.

Increased telomerase activity and vitamin D supplementation in overweight African Americans.
Haidong Zhu,Dehuang Guo,Ke Li,Jennifer Pedersen-White,Inger Stallmann-Jorgensen,Ying Huang,Samip Parikh,Kebin Liu,Yanbin Dong +8 more
TL;DR: Vitamin D supplementation significantly increased PBMC telomerase activity in overweight African Americans and the data suggest that vitamin D may improve telomere maintenance and prevent cell senescence and counteract obesity-induced acceleration of cellular aging.

Prostasin: A possible candidate gene for human hypertension
Haidong Zhu,Dehuang Guo,Ke Li,Weili Yan,Yuande Tan,Xiaoling Wang,Frank A. Treiber,Julie Chao,Harold Snieder,Harold Snieder,Yanbin Dong +10 more
TL;DR: Genetic variation of the prostasin gene may be implicated in the development of hypertension in youths and analyses combining AAs and EAs consistently demonstrated a statistical significance of rs12597511 on all the phenotypes including SBP/DBP and PWV.

Adhesion Molecule Polymorphisms and Pulse Wave Velocity in American Youth
Haidong Zhu,Weili Yan,Yuande Tan,Ke Li,Gaston Kapuku,Frank A. Treiber,Shaoyong Su,Gregory A. Harshfield,Harold Snieder,Harold Snieder,Yanbin Dong +10 more
TL;DR: Genetic variation of adhesion molecules may be implicated in the development of arterial stiffness and Screening for adhesion molecule polymorphisms may help identify high-risk youth.
