A systematic review of 10 mouse and 14 human studies reported a positive association between vitamin D (serum levels and supplementation) and beta diversity of gut microbiome in a variety of conditions. The present retrospective case-control study aimed to compare vitamin D (25(OH)D) plasma concentrations and gut microbiome composition in adult women with IBS (n=99) and HC (n=62). Plasma concentrations of 25(OH)D were assessed using the Endocrine Society Guidelines definition of vitamin D deficiency (25(OH)D <20 ng/ml) and insufficiency (25(OH)D >20-<30 ng/ml). 16S rRNA microbiome gene sequencing data was available for 39 HC and 62 participants with IBS.

Augmentation of α1-adrenergic-mediated contraction via the inhibition of the eNOS-NO pathway increased the activation of ROS through NOX2/4 in response to FR.
