Abstract excerpt
We investigated whether the expressed phenotype of osteoblasts and odontoblasts is changing with increasing maturity of the cells. Thus we determined, using in situ hybridization techniques, whether the expression of mRNA's for osteocalcin and the alpha 1 type 1 collagen chain was different in newly developed and more mature cuboidal osteoblasts of the primary and secondary spongiosa of radii of 8 day old rats,...
