Accumulating evidence suggests that chronic prostatic inflammation may lead to prostate cancer development. Growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) is highly expressed in the prostate and has been associated with inflammation and tu¬morigenesis. Researchers, led by Dr. Lambert, examined the relationship between GDF-15 and prostatic inflammation by measuring GDF-15 expression via immunohistochemical staining (IHC) in human prostatectomy specimens containing inflammation. To provide insight into a potential suppressive role for GDF-15 in inflammation, activation of NFkappaB (NFkB) was measured in PC3 cells. Researchers determined that an inverse relationship between GDF-15 and inflammation demonstrate a novel expression pattern for GDF-15 in the human prostate and suppression of NFkB activity. The researchers found that vitamin D up-regulates the expression of the GDF-15 protein, thereby suppressing inflammation by inhibiting NFkB, which has been shown to contribute to tumor formation and growth. According to Lambert “when you take vitamin D and put it on prostate cancer cells, it inhibits their growth.” While it hadn’t been proven to be an anti-cancer agent, they “wanted to understand what genes vitamin D is turning on or off in prostate cancer to offer new targets(1), Interestingly, back in 2005, Alex Vasquez postulated that a triad of vitamin D deficiency, fatty acid imbalance, and overconsumption of sugars (refined carbohydrates) are triggers of NFkB, the activation of which results in the up-regulation of genes which encode for the production of inflamma¬tory cytokines (TNF-a, IL-1, IL-6) and proinflammatory enzymes (iNOS, COX-2) and LIPOX, with “the clinical consequences of the burgeoning epidemics of metabolic and inflammatory diseases.”(2)
