Influence of Vitamin D on Corneal Epithelial Cell Desmosomes and Hemidesmosomes

PURPOSE: We have observed noticably weak epithelial attachment in vitamin D receptor knockout mice (VDR KO) undergoing epithelial debridement. We hypothesized that VDR KO negatively affects corneal epithelial cell desmosomes and/or hemidesmosomes. METHODS: Transcript levels of desmosome and hemidesm...
