The animals were categorized into 3 groups: normal body condition (normal to fat, n = 230), poor body condition (low amount of fat in abdomen and on heart, n = 15), and emaciated (no abdominal fat, serous atrophy of fat deposits on heart and of bone marrow, n = 18, i.e., all diseased animals).
However, high levels of a person's natural thyroid hormones also come with potentially dangerous side effects, including increased heart rate and irregular heart rhythms, loss of bone mass and other troubling symptoms.

Experimental evidence from animal models shows that survival of allografts of bone marrow, heart, kidney, liver, pancreatic islets, skin and small intestine are significantly prolonged by administration of VitD and its analogues 30), with increased resistance to opportunistic infections 31), supporting the assertion that immunomodulation by VitD is a determining factor of outcomes.

We performed genome-wide gene expression profiling in the ear, spleen, liver, heart and bone marrow of 8-week-old females of the MRL/MpJ and two reference strains of C57BL/6J and BALB/c by using a high-density microarray platform (NimbleGen mouse gene expression 12x135K array) which interrogates 44,170 transcripts corresponding to over 24,200 genes.
Some will face an increased risk of heart or bone problems, or a second cancer.
