The vitamin D binding protein (DBP), encoded by the group-specific component (GC) gene, is a component of the vitamin D system. In a genome-wide association study of DBP concentration in 65,589 neonates we identify 26 independent loci, 17 of which are in or close to the GC gene, with fine-mapping...

Vitamin D is necessary for the normal functioning of many organs, including the thyroid gland. It is, therefore, not surprising that vitamin D deficiency is considered a risk factor for the development of many thyroid disorders, including autoimmune thyroid diseases and thyroid cancer.

Introduction: Several studies have reported a low Vitamin D status in Autoimmune Thyroid Diseases (AITD), indicating association between Vitamin D deficiency (< 20 ng/ml) and thyroid autoimmunity. If supplementation of Vitamin D decreases anti-TPO antibody titres, in future it may become a part of AITDs' treatment, especially in those with Vitamin D...
