    Kurzfassung: Cytokines and vitamin D both have a role in modulating the immune system, and are also potentially useful biomarkers in mental illnesses such as major depressive disorder (MDD) and schizophrenia. Studying the variability of cytokines and vitamin D in a healthy population sample may add to understanding the association between these biomarkers and mental illness. To assess genetic and environmental contributions to variation in circulating levels of cytokines and vitamin D (25-hydroxy vitamin D: 25(OH)D3), we analyzed data from a healthy adolescent twin cohort (mean age 16.2 years; standard deviation 0.25). Plasma cytokine measures were available for 400 individuals (85 MZ, 115 DZ pairs), dried blood spot sample vitamin D measures were available for 378 individuals (70 MZ, 118 DZ pairs). Heritability estimates were moderate but significant for the cytokines transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), 0.57 (95% CI 0.26–0.80) and tumor necrosis factor-receptor type 1 (TNFR1), 0.50 (95% CI 0.11–0.63) respectively. Measures of 25(OH)D3 were within normal range and heritability was estimated to be high (0.86, 95% CI 0.61–0.94). Assays of other cytokines did not generate meaningful results. These potential biomarkers may be useful in mental illness, with further research warranted in larger sample sizes. They may be particularly important in adolescents with mental illness where diagnostic uncertainty poses a significant clinical challenge.

    Kurzfassung: To investigate relationships between mortality and circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (25(OH)D 3 ) and 25-hydroxyergocalciferol (25(OH)D 2 ). Design Case–cohort study within the Melbourne Collaborative Cohort Study (MCCS). We measured 25(OH)D 2 and 25(OH)D 3 in archived dried blood spots by LC–MS/MS. Cox regression was used to estimate mortality hazard ratios (HR), with adjustment for confounders. Setting General community. Subjects The MCCS included 29 206 participants, who at recruitment in 1990–1994 were aged 40–69 years, had dried blood spots collected and no history of cancer. For the present study we selected participants who died by 31 December 2007 ( n 2410) and a random sample (sub-cohort, n 2996). Results The HR per 25 nmol/l increment in concentration of 25(OH)D and 25(OH)D 3 were 0·86 (95 % CI 0·78, 0·96; P =0·007) and 0·85 (95 % CI 0·77, 0·95; P =0·003), respectively. Of 5108 participants, sixty-three (1·2 %) had detectable 25(OH)D 2 ; their mean 25(OH)D concentration was 11·9 (95 % CI 7·3, 16·6) nmol/l higher ( P 〈 0·001). The HR for detectable 25(OH)D 2 was 1·80 (95 % CI 1·09, 2·97; P =0·023); for those with detectable 25(OH)D 2 , the HR per 25 nmol/l increment in 25(OH)D was 1·06 (95 % CI 0·87, 1·29; P interaction = 0·02). HR were similar for participants who reported being in good, very good or excellent health four years after recruitment. Conclusions Total 25(OH)D and 25(OH)D 3 concentrations were inversely associated with mortality. The finding that the inverse association for 25(OH)D was restricted to those with no detectable 25(OH)D 2 requires confirmation in populations with higher exposure to ergocalciferol.
