Vitamin D enhances resistance to aspergillus fumigatus in mice via inhibition of excessive autophagy.

Year: 2018

Type: article

Abstract: through autophagy. The autophagy flow measurement experiment also found that the vitamin D group lowered autophagy levels in cells and a small number of Treg cells. In conclusion, Vitamin D deficiency can lead to impaired lung defense in mice, which may be associated with the formation of excessive autophagy-induced lysosomes and increased counts of Treg cells.
