In this study, we analysed the association of rs703842 in CYP27B1 gene with multiple sclerosis (MS) risk and disability progression in a group of 496 MS patients and 521 controls. For the first time in Central European Slovak population, we found the rs703842 allele C to be protective factor against MS development (p = 1.09 × 10). Moreover, the risky genotypes TT and TC were showed to be associated with an increased MS risk, and this was aggravated by the homozygous carriage of the HLA-DRB1*15:01 allele (OR = 2.82 vs. 4.86, p < .0001). No association of rs703842 with MS disability progression or calcidiol serum level was found.

High blood pressure (HBP) is the leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality worldwide. The progression of the disease leads to structural and/or functional alterations in various organs and increases cardiovascular risk. Currently, there are significant deficiencies in its diagnosis, treatment, and control.

Asthma is a chronic non-communicable disease that affects all age groups. The main challenge this condition poses is its heterogeneity. The role of vitamin D in asthma has aroused great interest, correlating low vitamin D levels and polymorphisms in the genes involved in its metabolic pathway with the risk of asthma.

The pathogenesis of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is complex, since many risk factors have been identified. Recent research indicates that polymorphisms in the metabolic pathway of vitamin D may be involved in both risk and survival of the disease. The objective of this study is to assess the effect of 13 genetic polymorphisms involved in the vitamin D metabolic pathway on the risk of suffering from NSCLC.

T helper cells play an important role in the aetiology of Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Vitamin D has an anti-inflammatory effect on T helper cells and can affect onset and pathogenesis of MS. Two genes of the metabolic Vitamin D pathway expressed by activated T helper (Th) cells have been identified as MS risk genes by genome-wide association studies, CYP27B1 (25(OH)D 1-alpha-hydroxylase) and CYP24A1 (1,25(OH)D 24-alpha-hydroxylase).

Objective: To evaluate the association polymorphisms in genes coding for enzymes involved in vitamin D metabolism (rs703842) and (rs2248359) with the risk of multiple sclerosis (MS).
Material And Methods: Ninety Caucasian patients with remitting MS and 87 volunteers without MS, born and living in the Altai region of Russia, participated in the study. Genotyping was performed by the TaqMan probe method.
