In conclusion, vitamin D has an important role in modulating the molecular pathways involved in adipose tissue inflammation and insulin resistance in hepatic tissue. Adequate levels of vitamin D are necessary for the regulation of metabolic pathways to maintain body homeostasis. The generated data provide novel insights into the cellular mechanisms of vitamin D and represent a basis for oral vitamin D supplementation in the prevention of metabolic diseases.
