Study Summary

Chronic, low-grade adipose tissue inflammation is a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus. The cause of adipose tissue inflammation has remained largely unclear. We hypothesize that vitamin D deficiency predisposes individuals to the development of adipose tissue inflammation, and that treatment of vitamin D deficient subjects with high dose vitamin D will reduce adipose tissue inflammation.

Primary Outcome

Total RNA will be extracted from whole adipose tissue. TNF alpha mRNA will be quantified using PCR, and normalized using a normalization factor based on three housekeeping genes. We will compute the change in adipose tissue TNF alpha mRNA level between baseline and the 6 month visit.
