From: Vitamin D deficiency serves as a precursor to stunted growth and central adiposity in zebrafish
VDD in male 6 mpf zebrafish fed a vitamin D null diet. (A) VDD fish had lower whole body levels of both 25(OH)D3 and 1,25(OH)2D3 than lab diet and VD3 sufficient fish. The limit of quanititation (LOQ) was 8 pmol/g and the limit of detection (LOD) was 3 pmol/g. Data are represented as mean ± SD. (B) VDD livers expressed significantly more cyp27b1 and cyp2r1, and significantly less cy24a1, than vitamin D sufficient livers. Data are represented as mean ± SE. *See also Supplementary Table 2.
