Abstract:
Ulcerative colitis(UC)is a chronic,recurrent intestinal inflammatory disorder.In recent years,the role of vitamin D in the treatment of UC has attracted widespread attention.Studies have demonstrated that vitamin D exerts therapeutic effects through multiple mechanisms including maintaining intestinal barrier,regulating immune cells and inflammatory factors,modulating gut microbiota,and regulating gene expression.Clinical studies have found that vitamin D supplementation can improve UC symptoms,alleviate inflammatory response,and enhance patients'quality of life.Additionally,there are differences in efficacies when vitamin D is combined with different drugs.This article reviewed the research progress on the mechanism and supplementation dosage of vitamin D in the treatment of UC,as well as its role in disease assessment and clinical significance.
