Oral calcium transiently increases calbindin9k gene expression in adult rat duodena
Abstract
In rat intestine, the 9 kilodalton calbindin (CaBP9K) is significantly increased in vivo by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) through a vitamin D (D) response element located in the 5′-flanking region of the gene. However, in vitro calcium has also been reported to increase CaBP9K gene expression in fetal duodenal culture preparations. The aim of the studies was to investigate whether calcium feeding alone can influence CaBP9K gene …
