  • Title: Calbindins D-9kDa and -28kDa and enamel secretion in vitamin D-deficient and control rats.
    Author: Berdal A, Balmain N, Thomasset M, Brehier A, Hotton D, Cuisinier-Gleizes P, Mathieu H.
    Journal: Connect Tissue Res; 1989; 22(1-4):165-71. PubMed ID: 2598667.
    Abstract:
    The present study focuses on the ultrastructure of enamel organ cells and the immunolocalization of calbindins D-9kDa and -28kDa during enamel secretion in Vitamin D-deficient rats. Vitamin D-deficiency disturbed the deposition of the layer of inner enamel and depleted the calbindins-content of ameloblasts. These data raise the possibility of a direct action of Vitamin D on the physiology of ameloblasts through ionic calcium homeostasis.
