Plasma binding capacity for 25-hydroxy-vitamin D in the elderly.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Plasma 25-hydroxy-vitamin D (25-OHD) concentrations and 25-OHD binding capacities were measured in 14 elderly patients and in 14 young controls. Both 25-OHD concentrations and 25-OHD binding capacities were reduced in the elderly. In neither group, however, was there a significant correlation between 25-OHD binding capacities and 25-OHD concentrations. Thus, although 25-OHD binding capacities are reduced in sick old people this does not account for the low 25-OHD concentrations often found in this group.

Studies on vitamin D binding protein in the nephrotic syndrome.
We studied the properties of vitamin D binding protein in plasma and urine from nine patients with nephrotic syndrome. Samples were incubated with 25-[3H]hydroxyvitamin D3, after which we determined binding capacity and apparent dissociation constants. Binding capacity was markedly less in plasma from patients with nephrotic syndrome than that from normal subjects, but binding affinity was unch...
