Oral Administration of an Active Form of Vitamin D3 (Calcitriol) Decreases Atherosclerosis in Mice by Inducing Regulatory T Cells and Immature Dendritic Cells With Tolerogenic Functions

TL;DR: Oral calcitriol treatment could prevent the development of atherosclerosis by changing the function or differentiation of DCs and regulatory T cells, and these findings suggest that intestinal and systemic immune modulation by calcriol may be a potentially valuable therapeutic approach against Atherosclerosis.
