Abstract
Intestinal cells from chicken embryos were grown in chemically defined, serum-free medium. The majority of cultured cells exhibits an epithelial-like morphology. As demonstrated by indirect immunofluorescence, the epithelial cells, and not the contaminating fibroblasts, express Calbindin-D28K only after 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, the hormonally active form of vitamin D, is added to the culture medium. The highly sensitive reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction shows that both Calbindin-D28K mRNA and the corresponding primary unprocessed transcripts (pre-mRNA) are dramatically increased in cultured intestinal cells treated with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, thus indicating that Calbindin-D28K is induced by the increased rate of transcription of the corresponding gene. © 1992.Pubblicazioni consigliate
