We aimed to illustrate determinants of VDR gene expression in visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue among individuals without diabetes. We gathered visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissues during an elective abdominal surgery form 33 morbidly obese (BMI > 40 kg/m(2)), 23 obese (BMI = 30-40 kg/m(2)), and 35 non-obese (BMI < 30 kg/m(2)) participants who were free of diabetes. Participants were classified according to their degree of obesity. Before the surgery, habitual dietary intake, physical activity, 25(OH)D, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), and HOMA-IR was gathered. Non-obese participants had significantly lower mean VDR gene expression in visceral adipose tissues than both the obese and morbidly obese ones and had also lower expression in subcutaneous adipose tissues than the morbidly obese participants. In multiple linear regression models, BMI and HOMA-IR were the independent positive predictors of VDR gene expression in subcutaneous fat. Among non-obese subjects, WC and 25(OH)D were the positive and negative independent predictors of visceral adipose tissue VDR gene expression, respectively. Among obese participants, 25(OH)D was negatively, and BMI and HOMA-IR were positively associated with VDR mRNA levels in visceral adipose tissue. In morbidly obese participants, the independent positive predictors of VDR gene expression in visceral fat were BMI and HOMA-IR, and negative predictors were 25(OH)D and calcium intake. Our findings suggested that 25(OH)D concentrations are the fundamental elements to determine VDR gene expression in visceral fat which by increasing fat depots, the subsequent insulin resistance became another predictor of VDR gene expression.
