Vitamin D, Insulin Resistance and Inflammation in ESRD

The broad goal of this study is to understand the mechanisms by which Vitamin D receptor activation leads to changes in insulin signaling in advanced uremia. We hypothesize that 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 deficiency due to advanced chronic kidney disease leads to insulin resistance and that administration of a vitamin D3 analog will restore insulin sensitivity in End Stage Renal Disease patients.
